Preparation and Storage

Background: PI 3-Kinase p55 gamma

p55 gamma (Protein of 55 kDa, gamma subunit; also PI3-kinase regulatory subunit gamma and p55PIK) is a 55-57 kDa member of the PI3K p85 family of regulatory subunits. It is widely expressed, and serves as a recruitment subunit for the p110 catalytic subunit of PI3 kinase. p55 gamma /p55PIK should not be confused with the 55 kDa alpha splice variant of the p85a gene (75% amino acid [aa] identity). Human p55 gamma is 461 aa in length. It contains a unique 34 aa N-terminus that binds Rb and prevents cycle progression, followed by a Pro-rich region (aa 35-44) and two SH2 domains that bind the p110 catalytic subunit (aa 65-160 and 358-452). Based on mouse, it is likely that alternate start sites at Met8 and Met32 generate 54 and 50 kDa protein products, respectively. There is also a potential for a start site 18 aa upstream of the standard start site, as well as a splice form that shows a deletion of aa 256-314 that may be accompanied by an additional deletion of aa 36-71. Over aa 251-378, human p55 gamma shares 94% aa identity with mouse p55 gamma.
