Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: PDK1; PDPK2; PDPK2P; PRO0461

Summary

Enables 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase activity; phospholipase activator activity; and phospholipase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; regulation of protein kinase activity; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within intracellular signal transduction. Located in cell projection; cytosol; and plasma membrane. Implicated in prostate cancer. Biomarker of lung non-small cell carcinoma.
