Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityATP + 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol = ADP + 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4-phosphate.
FunctionTogether with PI4K2B and the type III PI4Ks (PIK4CA and PIK4CB) it contributes to the overall PI4-kinase activity of the cell. The phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to PI4P is the first committed step in the generation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), a precursor of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3). Contributes to the production of InsP3 in stimulated cells. This lipid kinase is the major phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) producer in the Golgi apparatus, it generates more than 50% of this molecule which is essential for the identity of the organelle, protein sorting and membrane trafficking (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
InteractionG3V8C2:Itch (xeno); NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-8159115, EBI-8159149;
PtmPalmitoylated by ZDHHC3 and ZDHHC7 in the CCPCC motif. Palmitoylation is cholesterol-dependent, and required for TGN localization (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
SimilarityBelongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family. Type II PI4K subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 PI3K/PI4K domain. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationCytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane {ECO:0000250}; Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000250}. Membrane raft {ECO:0000250}. Endosome {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasmic vesicle {ECO:0000250}. Cell projection, dendrite {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21998198}. Cell junction, synapse, presynaptic cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21998198}. Cell junction, synapse, synaptosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21998198}. Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21998198}. Note=Found in subdomains of the plasma membrane termed non-caveolar membrane rafts. Enriched in neurite tips and neuron projections in a BLOC- 1- and AP-3-complexes-dependent manner (By similarity). Localized in neuronal cell body. Transported from neuronal cell body to neuron projections in a BLOC-1- and AP-3-complexes-dependent manner. {ECO:0000250}.
SubunitAssociates with the BLOC-1 and the AP-3 complexes; the BLOC-1 complex is required for optimal binding of PI4K2A to the AP-3 complex. Interacts with BLOC1S5 and DTNBP1 (By similarity). Interacts with FOS; this interaction may enhance phosphatidylinositol phosphorylation activity. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22105363}.
