PIP5K1B

PIP5K1B has broad expression in colon (RPKM 8.2), duodenum (RPKM 7.6) and 20 other tissues.

Phosphatidylinositol-4-Phosphate 5-Kinase Type 1 Beta

Catalyzes the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P/PI4P) to form phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2/PIP2), a lipid second messenger that regulates several cellular processes such as signal transduction, vesicle trafficking, actin cytoskeleton dynamics, cell adhesion, and cell motility (By similarity).
PtdIns(4,5)P2 can directly act as a second messenger or can be utilized as a precursor to generate other second messengers: inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), diacylglycerol (DAG) or phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3/PIP3) (By similarity).
Mediates RAC1-dependent reorganization of actin filaments. Contributes to the activation of phospholipase PLD2. Together with PIP5K1A, is required, after stimulation by G-protein coupled receptors, for the synthesis of IP3 that will induce stable platelet adhesion (By similarity).
