The molecular mass of PIP4K2 beta is approximately 47 kDa. This kinase has important roles in cell signaling processes and maintains its activity across various tissues with expression noticeable in the brain liver and immune system cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe generation of PI(45)P2 by PIP4K2 beta plays a critical role in membrane dynamics and actin cytoskeleton regulation. This enzyme contributes to the control of intracellular signaling by affecting pathways involved in cell growth survival and migration. PIP4K2 beta functions as part of larger protein complexes which can affect its activity and interactions coordinating cellular responses under different physiological conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPIP4K2 beta integrates into the phosphoinositide signaling pathway and influences the PI3K\/AKT\/mTOR signaling cascade imperative for cell survival and growth. It interacts with other kinases such as PI3K to regulate the availability of lipid signaling molecules. The activity of PIP4K2 beta is also linked to the regulation of insulin signaling working alongside phosphatases that modulate PI(45)P2 and its derivatives.\u003cbr\u003e\nDysregulation of PIP4K2 beta activity can associate with metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes and is observed in certain cancer types. For instance abnormal expression levels can affect cellular proliferation and glucose metabolism highlighting its role in insulin signaling pathways. Additionally the interaction of PIP4K2 beta with proteins such as AKT an important player in cancer pathways highlights its potential impact on tumorigenesis and the development of insulin resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843961508009,"sku":"ab268869","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab268869","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
