NCIt synonyms : PI3K-C2GAMMA; Phosphatidylinositol-4-Phosphate 3-Kinase Catalytic Subunit Type 2 Gamma wt Allele; Phosphoinositide-3-Kinase, Class 2, Gamma Polypeptide Gene; PI3K-C2-Gamma; Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase, Class 2, Gamma Gene; Phosphatidylinositol-4-Phosphate 3-Kinase, Catalytic Subunit Type 2 Gamma Gene;
NCIt definition : Human PIK3C2G wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 12p12 and is approximately
401 kb in length. This allele, which encodes phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 3-kinase
C2 domain-containing subunit gamma protein, plays a role in both the phosphorylation
of phospholipids and the modulation of second messenger signaling.;
NCIt note : Overexpression of the PIK3C2G gene may be associated with the SHH-dependent subgroup
of medulloblastoma.. (Nature. 2012; 488:49-56.);
