Function | Phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol (PI) in the first committed step in the production of the second messenger inositol- 1,4,5,-trisphosphate (PIP). May regulate Golgi disintegration/reorganization during mitosis, possibly via its phosphorylation. Involved in Golgi-to-plasma membrane trafficking (By similarity) (PubMed:10559940, PubMed:11277933, PubMed:12749687, PubMed:9405935). May play an important role in the inner ear development. |
Cellular Location | Endomembrane system. Mitochondrion outer membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Rough endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Golgi apparatus. Golgi apparatus membrane. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Note=Found in the outer membrane of mitochondria and membranes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Recruited to the Golgi complex by the small GTPase ARF to stimulate the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate (PIP2) on the Golgi complex. Recruited to the Golgi apparatus membrane by ACBD3 (PubMed:24672044, PubMed:27009356, PubMed:28289207). GGA2 is also involved in the recruitment (PubMed:28289207). |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed with highest levels in heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas, testis and ovary. Weakly expressed in liver (PubMed:9020160, PubMed:9405935, PubMed:9405938). Expressed in the innear ear in the epithelium of the spinal organ of corti |
