OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes an isoform of the catalytic subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). These kinases are important in signaling pathways involving receptors on the outer membrane of eukaryotic cells and are named for their catalytic subunit. The encoded protein is the catalytic subunit for PI3Kbeta (PI3KB). PI3KB has been shown to be part of the activation pathway in neutrophils which have bound immune complexes at sites of injury or infection. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PIK3CB as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PIK3CB could matter depends on whether native PIK3CB is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PIK3CB is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label PIK3CB as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
