Abstract
The identification of PDK1 as a kinase that phosphorylates the AGC family o f kinases led to a hunt for 'PDK2', a hypothetical regulated kinase(s) that would be required for full activation of the AGC kinases. Recent findings suggest that the elusive PDK2 may actually be a familiar kinase with an aty pical associate.
