GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARF1 and ARF5, which also shows strong GTPase activity. Isoform 1 participates in the prevention of neuronal apoptosis by enhancing PI3 kinase activity. It aids the coupling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) to cytoplasmic PI3 kinase by interacting with Homer scaffolding proteins, and also seems to mediate anti-apoptotic effects of NGF by activating nuclear PI3 kinase. Isoform 2 does not stimulate PI3 kinase but may protect cells from apoptosis by stimulating Akt. It also regulates the adapter protein 1 (AP-1)-dependent trafficking of proteins in the endosomal system. It seems to be oncogenic. It is overexpressed in cancer cells, prevents apoptosis and promotes cancer cell invasion.

PIKE also known as phosphoinositide 3-kinase enhancer is a protein encoded by the CENTG1 gene. It weighs approximately 97 kDa and has several isoforms including PIKE-A PIKE-L and PIKE-S each with distinct localizations and functions. PIKE is expressed in neural tissues especially in the brain where it regulates numerous signaling processes. This protein facilitates the activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) by directly interacting with it thereby enhancing downstream signaling.
Proteins like PIKE are important in regulating cellular growth survival and proliferation. PIKE acts as an important mediator in the PI3K signaling pathway and is known to affect neuronal cell development and neurite outgrowth. It participates in forming complexes with other proteins such as Akt further amplifying signaling cascades linked to cell survival and growth. Its prominent role in neural systems makes PIKE significant in maintaining normal brain function.
The protein PIKE integrates significantly into the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and the small GTPase pathway. In the PI3K/Akt pathway PIKE works closely with Akt and mTOR proteins promoting cell survival and growth. In the small GTPase pathway PIKE interacts with proteins like Rac1 which regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics and influences changes in cell shape and motility. These pathways highlight PIKE's involvement in essential cellular processes.
The abnormal regulation of PIKE links to specific conditions such as cancer and schizophrenia. In cancer altered PIKE activity contributes to tumorigenesis through its interaction with growth-related proteins including Akt. In schizophrenia changes in PIKE expression or function can affect neural signaling pathways potentially influencing cognitive and behavioral symptoms associated with the disorder. Understanding PIKE's role in these conditions could aid in developing new therapeutic strategies.
