This enzyme is part of the PI3K family which plays essential roles in cell signaling pathways. PIK3C2B is mostly present in human tissues such as the liver heart and brain where it functions in various physiological processes. In terms of structure it possesses both a C2 domain aiding in cell membrane interaction and a helical domain that assists in catalysis.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe enzyme phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 3-kinase C2 domain-containing beta polypeptide plays a significant role in the regulation of endosomal trafficking and cell migration by phosphorylating phosphoinositides. PIK3C2B can also impact insulin signaling and GLUT4 translocation in cells contributing to glucose metabolism. It forms part of a larger protein complex that aids its action in cellular environments. Its interactions with small GTPases suggest that it is involved in cellular morphology and dynamics.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPhosphoinositide-4-phosphate 3-kinase functions significantly in the PI3K\/Akt signaling pathway affecting cellular growth and survival. It also plays a role in the insulin signaling pathway where it works alongside proteins like PIK3CA and PTEN in regulating cellular responses to hormones. Through the PI3K\/Akt pathway PIK3C2B modulates vital processes such as the cell cycle and apoptosis highlighting its contribution to maintaining cellular homeostasis and response to external signals.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe enzyme phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 3-kinase C2 domain-containing beta polypeptide associates with metabolic disorders and cancers. Alterations in its expression or function can lead to aberrant signaling in insulin resistance conditions like type 2 diabetes. Additionally due to its role in cell proliferation pathways PIK3C2B induces oncogenic processes when dysregulated. Connections with proteins such as Akt and mTOR further emphasize its relevance in these diseases offering potential therapeutic targets for intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843931525289,"sku":"ab268865","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab268865","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
