Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable 1-phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase activity; 1-phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate 4-kinase activity; and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate biosynthetic process; negative regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway; and positive regulation of autophagosome assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid metabolic process and phosphorylation. Predicted to be located in autophagosome; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and immune system. Orthologous to human PIP4K2C (phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate 4-kinase type 2 gamma).
