PI4K2A
Phosphatidylinositolpolyphosphates (PtdInsPs) are centrally involved in many biologic processes, ranging from cell growth and organization of the actin cytoskeleton to endo-and exocytosis. PI4KII phosphorylates PtdIns at the D-4 position, an essential step in the biosynthesis of PtdInsPs.
Full Name
Phosphatidylinositol 4-Kinase Type 2 Alpha
Function
Membrane-bound phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase (PI4-kinase) that catalyzes the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), a lipid that plays important roles in endocytosis, Golgi function, protein sorting and membrane trafficking and is required for prolonged survival of neurons. Besides, phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (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).

Found in subdomains of the plasma membrane termed non-caveolar membrane rafts. Transported from neuronal cell body to neuron projections and neurite tips in a BLOC-1- and AP-3-complexes-dependent manner.
PTM
Palmitoylated by ZDHHC3 and ZDHHC7 in the CCPCC motif. Palmitoylation is cholesterol-dependent, and required for TGN localization.
Ubiquitinated by ITCH; this does not lead to proteasomal degradation.
