|
| Function |
Catalytic subunit of the PI3K complex that mediates formation of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate which plays a key role in initiation and maturation of autophagosomes. Involved in the transport of lysosomal enzyme precursors to lysosomes. Required for the abcission step in cytokinesis. Required for transport from early to late endosomes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14617358, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20208530, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7628435}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Midbody. Late endosome. Note=Localizes also to discrete punctae along the ciliary axoneme and to the base of the ciliary axoneme. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed, with a highest expression in skeletal muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7628435}.
