For maximum recovery please spin prior to use. Unless noted below, aliquots of the 5 µg, 10 µg and 20 µg sizes of kinase are not recommended as materials can be used in original packaging until exhausted. For larger sizes, the number of freeze/thaws may be reduced by preparing aliquots, aliquots below 20 µL are not recommended. Please never store a kinase diluted. If properly stored at -80C, this product is guaranteed for 6 months from date of purchase.

PI4K2A (PI4K2 alpha) lipid kinase or phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase type 2 alpha is involved in the formation of phosphatidylinositolpolyphosphates (PtdInsPs) which are centrally involved in many biologic processes ranging from cell growth and organization of the actin cytoskeleton to endo- and exocytosis. PI4K2A phosphorylates PtdIns at the D-4 position which is an essential step in the biosynthesis of PtdInsPs. PI4K2A is a novel regulator of tumor growth by its action on angiogenesis and HIF-1alpha regulation. PI4K2A generates PtdIns4P-rich domains within the Golgi which regulate targeting of clathrin adaptor AP-1 complexes. PI4K2A is also required for Wnt to regulate LRP6 phosphorylation.
