It weighs approximately 97 kDa and has several isoforms including PIKE-A PIKE-L and PIKE-S each with distinct localizations and functions. PIKE is expressed in neural tissues especially in the brain where it regulates numerous signaling processes. This protein facilitates the activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) by directly interacting with it thereby enhancing downstream signaling.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nProteins like PIKE are important in regulating cellular growth survival and proliferation. PIKE acts as an important mediator in the PI3K signaling pathway and is known to affect neuronal cell development and neurite outgrowth. It participates in forming complexes with other proteins such as Akt further amplifying signaling cascades linked to cell survival and growth. Its prominent role in neural systems makes PIKE significant in maintaining normal brain function.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe protein PIKE integrates significantly into the PI3K\/Akt signaling pathway and the small GTPase pathway. In the PI3K\/Akt pathway PIKE works closely with Akt and mTOR proteins promoting cell survival and growth. In the small GTPase pathway PIKE interacts with proteins like Rac1 which regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics and influences changes in cell shape and motility. These pathways highlight PIKE's involvement in essential cellular processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe abnormal regulation of PIKE links to specific conditions such as cancer and schizophrenia. In cancer altered PIKE activity contributes to tumorigenesis through its interaction with growth-related proteins including Akt. In schizophrenia changes in PIKE expression or function can affect neural signaling pathways potentially influencing cognitive and behavioral symptoms associated with the disorder. Understanding PIKE's role in these conditions could aid in developing new therapeutic strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854084001961,"sku":"ab224118","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab224118","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
