Gene information for PI4K2B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID55300
Official gene symbolPI4K2B
Full namephosphatidylinositol 4-kinase type 2 beta
Aliases,FLJ11105,PI4KIIB,PIK42B,
Gene summaryPhosphatidylinositol 4-kinases (PI4Ks) phosphorylate phosphatidylinositol to generate phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), an immediate precursor of several important signaling and scaffolding molecules. PIP itself may also have direct functional and structural roles. PI4K2B is a primarily cytosolic PI4K that is recruited to membranes, where it stimulates phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate synthesis (Wei et al., 2002 [PubMed 12324459]).[supplied by OMIM]
