Crystal structure of the phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIbeta
Structural highlights
Function[P4K2B_HUMAN] Together with PI4K2A and the type III PI4Ks (PIK4CA and PIK4CB) it contributes to the overall PI4-kinase activity of the cell. This contribution may be especially significant in plasma membrane, endosomal and Golgi compartments. The phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to 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). Contributes to the production of InsP3 in stimulated cells and is likely to be involved in the regulation of vesicular trafficking.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedPhosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) is the most abundant monophosphoinositide in eukaryotic cells. Humans have four phosphatidylinositol 4-kinases (PI4Ks) that synthesize PI4P, among which are PI4K IIbeta and PI4K IIalpha. In this study, two crystal structures are presented: the structure of human PI4K IIbeta and the structure of PI4K IIalpha containing a nucleoside analogue. The former, a complex with ATP, is the first high-resolution (1.9 A) structure of a PI4K. These structures reveal new details such as high conformational heterogeneity of the lateral hydrophobic pocket of the C-lobe and together provide a structural basis for isoform-specific inhibitor design. The high-resolution crystal structure of phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIbeta and the crystal structure of phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIalpha containing a nucleoside analogue provide a structural basis for isoform-specific inhibitor design.,Klima M, Baumlova A, Chalupska D, Hrebabecky H, Dejmek M, Nencka R, Boura E Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr. 2015 Jul 1;71(Pt 7):1555-63. doi:, 10.1107/S1399004715009505.
