- P110α
-
The p110α protein is a class I PI 3-kinase catalytic subunit. The human p110α protein is encoded by the PIK3CA gene.[1]
Contents
Function
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase is composed of an 85 kDa regulatory subunit and a 110 kDa catalytic subunit. The protein encoded by this gene represents the catalytic subunit, which uses ATP to phosphorylate phosphatidylinositols (PtdIns), PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2.[2]
Clinical significance
This gene has been found to be oncogenic and has been implicated in cervical cancers.[3] Recent evidence has shown that the PIK3CA gene is mutated in a range of human cancers. Due to the association between p110α and cancer[4] it is believed to be a promising drug target. A number of pharmaceutical companies are currently designing and charactering potential p110α isoform specific inhibitors.[5][6]

Interactions
P110α has been shown to interact with ARHGEF1,[7] Centaurin, alpha 1,[8] DGKZ,[9] Lck[10][11] and HRAS.[12][13][14]
