Biological function summary
PI4K2A plays a significant role in cellular processes through its involvement in phosphoinositide turnover. It contributes to the synthesis of membrane phospholipids and helps regulate vesicle trafficking. PI4K2A functions as part of larger protein complexes involved in generating PI4P a precursor for producing phosphatidylinositol 45-bisphosphate (PI(45)P2) which is critical for various signaling pathways.
Pathways
PI4K2A associates with the phosphoinositide signaling pathway and the endocytic pathway. In the phosphoinositide signaling pathway it interacts with other kinases to facilitate the production of PI4P and PI(45)P2 which serve as signaling molecules. Within these pathways PI4K2A collaborates with proteins like PI4KB to regulate membrane dynamics and endocytosis.

General info
Function
Membrane-bound phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase (PI4-kinase) that catalyzes the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), a lipid that plays important roles in endocytosis, Golgi function, protein sorting and membrane trafficking and is required for prolonged survival of neurons. Besides, phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) is the first committed step in the generation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), a precursor of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family. Type II PI4K subfamily.
Post-translational modifications
Palmitoylated by ZDHHC3 and ZDHHC7 in the CCPCC motif. Palmitoylation is cholesterol-dependent, and required for TGN localization.. Ubiquitinated by ITCH; this does not lead to proteasomal degradation.
