PIK3R3 phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 3

Gene ID: 8503, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: p55; p55PIK; p55-GAMMA

Summary

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol and similar compounds, which then serve as second messengers in growth signaling pathways. PI3K is composed of a catalytic and a regulatory subunit. The protein encoded by this gene represents a regulatory subunit of PI3K. The encoded protein contains two SH2 domains through which it binds activated protein tyrosine kinases to regulate their activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]
