ab40776 was shown to recognize PI 3 Kinase catalytic subunit alpha when PI 3 Kinase catalytic subunit alpha/PIK3CA knockout samples were used, along with additional cross-reactive bands. Wild-type and PI 3 Kinase catalytic subunit alpha/PIK3CA knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab40776 and ab8245 (loading control to GAPDH) were diluted to 1/1000 and 1/10000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Biological function summary
The PIK3CA protein phosphorylates the inositol ring of phosphoinositides generating phosphatidylinositol (345)-trisphosphate (PIP3) a lipid second messenger involved in numerous signaling pathways. PIK3CA often acts within a complex interacting with regulatory subunits such as p85 to control its activity. The complex formation enhances its stability and localization to the cell membrane where it can exert its enzymatic actions effectively. In its biological capacity PIK3CA plays a role in cellular proliferation survival and metabolism.
Pathways
The PI3K/Akt signaling pathway involves PIK3CA as an important mediator. This pathway is integral to numerous cellular processes including metabolism growth and survival. PIK3CA links closely with Akt a downstream protein kinase that propagates the signal initiated by PIP3 generation. The mTOR pathway is another critical route involving PIK3CA where it regulates translation and cellular growth. These pathways emphasize the importance of PIK3CA in maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to external growth signals.
