catalytic activity:ATP + 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol = ADP + 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4-phosphate.,enzyme regulation:This is a type II PtdIns-4-kinase activated by detergents such as triton and inhibited by adenosine.,function:Acts on phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) in the first committed step in the production of the second messenger inositol-1,4,5,-trisphosphate.,similarity:Belongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family. Type III PI4K subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 PI3K/PI4K domain.,tissue specificity:Expressed ubiquitously. Highest levels in placenta and brain. Little or no expression in lung, liver, pancreas, testis or leukocytes.,
Cytoplasm . Cell membrane . Localization to the plasma membrane is mediated by the PI4K complex and association with EFR3 (EFR3A or EFR3B), TTC7 (TTC7A or TTC7B) and FAM126 (FAM126A or FAM126B) (PubMed:23229899). Localization to the plasma membrane is regulated by TMEM150A (PubMed:25608530). .
Expressed ubiquitously. Highest levels in placenta and brain. Little or no expression in lung, liver, pancreas, testis or leukocytes.
