Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables 1-phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase activity. Involved in phosphatidylinositol phosphate biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi-associated vesicle membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary spastic paraplegia 84. Orthologous to human PI4KA (phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase alpha).
