PI3K (p110alpha/p55gamma) or Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase is a lipid kinase that phosphorylates the inositol ring of phosphatidylinositol at the 3-prime position which serve as second messengers in growth signaling pathways. PI3K comprises a 110 kD catalytic subunit and a regulatory subunit of either 85, 55, or 50 kD. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase plays an important role in the metabolic actions of insulin, and a mutation in the PI3K has been associated with insulin resistance and plays an important role in glucose homeostasis in vivo . PI3K also plays an essential role in the development and induction of mast cells in normal and pathogenic immune responses .
