Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase: Structure and expression of the 110 kd catalytic subunit

Abstract: Purified bovine brain phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (Pl3-kinase) is composed of 85 kd and 110 kd subunits. The 85 kd subunit (p85 alpha) lacks Pl3-kinase activity and acts as an adaptor, coupling the 110 kd subunit (p110) to activated protein tyrosine kinases. Here the characterization of the p110 subunit is presented. cDNA cloning reveals p110 to be a 1068 aa protein related to Vps34p, a S. cerevisiae protein involved in the sorting of proteins to the vacuole. p110 expressed in insect cells possesses Pl3-kina… Show more

“…Binding of the SH2 domains to phosphotyrosine residues within the sequence context, YMXM, which occurs in a wide range of activated growth factor receptors and adaptor proteins, causes the translocation and activation of the catalytic subunit (2, 15-16). More recently, a number of distinct p85 and p110 subunit isoforms have been identified (11,14,17), but the functional significance of this heterogeneity is not yet clear (18).…”

“…Receptor-regulated forms of PI 3-kinase appear to prefer to phosphorylate phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P 2 ) in vivo (3-5). The product of this reaction, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 ), is a candidate second messenger that regulates a variety of cellular responses to growth factors perhaps through the activation of serine/threonine protein kinases such as Akt/PKB and/or certain protein kinase C isoforms and small GTP-binding proteins such as Rac 1 (6 -10).The first form of PI 3-kinase to be purified and cloned was identified as a heterodimer composed of a 110-kDa catalytic subunit with a tightly bound regulatory subunit of 85 kDa (11)(12)(13)(14). The p85 subunit possesses a number of regions with homology to recognized signaling proteins.…”

“…Active PI3K is a heterodimer composed of an 85-kDa regulatory subunit and a 110-kDa catalytic P13K ASSOCIATION 7409 subunit (6,21). Association between P13K and the PDGFR is mediated by SH2 domains within the 85-kDa subunit of P13K (22,26,31) and is dependent upon autophosphorylation of tyrosine residues within the kinase insert domain of the PDGFR (11,22,25,31).…”
