NCIt definition : Human PIP4K2A wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 10p12.2 and is approximately
178 kb in length. This allele, which encodes phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate 4-kinase
type-2 alpha protein, is involved in the formation of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-biphosphate,
the precursor to second messengers of phosphoinositide signal transduction pathways.;
