OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) family. PI3-kinases play roles in signaling pathways involved in cell proliferation, oncogenic transformation, cell survival, cell migration, and intracellular protein trafficking. This protein contains a lipid kinase catalytic domain as well as a C-terminal C2 domain, a characteristic of class II PI3-kinases. C2 domains act as calcium-dependent phospholipid binding motifs that mediate translocation of proteins to membranes, and may also mediate protein-protein interactions. The PI3-kinase activity of this protein is not sensitive to nanomolar levels of the inhibitor wortmanin. This protein was shown to be able to be activated by insulin and may be involved in integrin-dependent signaling. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PIK3C2A as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PIK3C2A could matter depends on whether native PIK3C2A is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PIK3C2A is annotated at the cell surface, where native PIK3C2A is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label PIK3C2A as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
