PIP5K1A ACTIVE GST TAGGED HUMAN PRECISIO KINASE RECOMBINANT

General description

PIP5K1A or phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase 1 alpha phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate to form phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. PIP5K1 is required for Wnt3a-induced LRP6 phosphorylation at ser1490 in mammalian cells. Wnt3a stimulates the formation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphates through ′frizzled′ and ′dishevelled′, the latter of which directly interacts with and activated PIP5KI. PIP5K1A-mediated PIP production is crucial for HIV-1 entry and the early steps of infection in permissive lymphocytes. Overexpression of wild-type PI4P5K1A increases HIV-1 Env-mediated PIP production and enhances viral replication in primary lymphocytes.
