    basic FUNCTION
  • regulating cellular responses
  • is a key player in NK-cell development and cytokine secretion
  • epistatic relationship between PIK3CD and PTEN (pMID: 18178811)
  • important role for PIK3CD in regulating B-cell responses to TNFSF13B
  • regulates T-cell cytokine production during primary and secondary immune responses (pMID: 20081091)
  • new function for PIK3CD as part of the membrane fission machinery required at the trans-Golgi network (TGN) for the selective trafficking and secretion of cytokines in macrophages
  • is a lipid kinase of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase class 1A family and involved in early signaling events of leukocytes regulating proliferation, differentiation and survival
  • is essential for tumor clearance mediated by cytotoxic T lymphocytes
  • role in the development and activation of B lymphocytes through various downstream effectors
  • can promote proliferation of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cells
  • PIK3CD increase genomic instability in normal and neoplastic B cells by an AICDA-dependent mechanism
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism carbohydrate
    signaling
    a component heterodimer of a p110 (catalytic) and a p85 (regulatory) subunit
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • binding p85 adaptor proteins (PIK3R1, PIK3R2, PIK3R3)
  • interacts with ERAS
  • TNF stimulation induces PIK3CD expression in human ECs (endothelial cells) and synovial fibroblasts, but not in leucocytes, through transcription start sites located in a novel promoter region in PIK3CD
  • mediates double-stranded (ds) RNA-induced upregulation of CD274 without affecting the activation of NFKB1
  • PIK3CD pathway regulates AICDA by suppressing its expression in B cells
  • cell & other associating with activated receptor protein-tyrosine kinases
