PIP4K2B

Participates in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PubMed:26774281, PubMed:9038203). Preferentially utilizes GTP, rather than ATP, for PI(5)P phosphorylation and its activity reflects changes in direct proportion to the physiological GTP concentration (PubMed:26774281). Its GTP-sensing activity is critical for metabolic adaptation (PubMed:26774281). PIP4Ks negatively regulate insulin signaling through a catalytic-independent mechanism. They interact with PIP5Ks and suppress PIP5K-mediated PtdIns(4,5)P2 synthesis and insulin-dependent conversion to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 (PubMed:31091439).

Ubiquitinated by the SPOP/CUL3 complex. Ubiquitination is stimulated by PtdIns5P levels.

Phosphorylated on serine residues.

Highly expressed in brain, heart, pancreas, skeletal muscle and kidney. Detected at lower levels in placenta, lung and liver.
