PIK3CG phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit gamma

Gene ID: 5294, updated on 3-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: PI3K; PIK3; IMD97; PI3CG; PI3Kgamma; p110gamma; p120-PI3K

Summary

Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) phosphorylate inositol lipids and are involved in the immune response. The protein encoded by this gene is a class I catalytic subunit of PI3K. Like other class I catalytic subunits (p110-alpha p110-beta, and p110-delta), the encoded protein binds a p85 regulatory subunit to form PI3K. This gene is located in a commonly deleted segment of chromosome 7 previously identified in myeloid leukemias. Several transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
