PIK3R2 refers to a protein target that is studied across multiple biological contexts; annotations and nomenclature can vary by species and isoform. This product corresponds to the Homo sapiens (Human) sequence context, which can be important when comparing homologs or orthologs across model systems. For curated functional annotations, domains, and sequence features, consult primary databases (e.g., UniProt\/NCBI) and the recent literature for the specific organism and isoform.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProfiling immune signaling nodes and cytokine pathways across cell types and activation states.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStudying ligand–receptor interactions that shape immune cell communication and effector function.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBuilding quantitative assays to compare pathway modulation by genetic or pharmacologic perturbations.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelevance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Regulatory subunit of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K), a kinase that phosphorylates PtdIns(4,5)P2 (Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate) to generate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3). PIP3 plays a key role by recruiting PH domain-containing proteins to the membrane, including AKT1 and PDPK1, activating signaling cascades involved in cell growth, survival, proliferation, motility and morphology. Binds to activated (phosphorylated) protein-tyrosine kinases, through its SH2 domain, and acts as an adapter, mediating the association of the p110 catalytic unit to the plasma membrane. Indirectly regulates autophagy. Promotes nuclear translocation of XBP1 isoform 2 in a ER stress- and\/or insulin-dependent manner during metabolic overloading in the liver and hence plays a role in glucose tolerance improvement.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eEnzyme activity assays and kinetics measurements with defined substrates\/cofactors.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInhibitor, activator, or substrate screening in biochemical assay formats.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStructure–function analysis to interpret how sequence changes impact catalytic performance.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn quantitative assay development, changes in binding or activity readouts are typically interpreted relative to appropriate negative\/positive controls and, where possible, orthogonal assay formats that support the same conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eRecombinant constructs may represent a defined region (domain) rather than the full-length protein; interpret results in the context of the expressed region.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTag or fusion elements can aid purification and detection but may influence binding surfaces or oligomerization; consider tag controls when relevant.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSpecies and isoform differences can affect interaction partners and post-translational modifications; align experimental controls to the intended biological context.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eE. coli expression can limit eukaryotic post-translational modifications; for modification-dependent biology, interpret results accordingly.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProtKB entry for O00459 — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/O00459\/entry - NCBI Gene search (PIK3R2) — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=PIK3R2 - PubMed search (PIK3R2) — NCBI — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=PIK3R2 - RCSB PDB search (PIK3R2) — RCSB PDB — https:\/\/www.rcsb.org\/search?query=PIK3R2 - Reactome Pathway Browser — Reactome — https:\/\/reactome.org\/ --\u003e","brand":"CUSABIO TECHNOLOGY LLC","offers":[{"title":"1 mg","offer_id":53065300574573,"sku":"CSB-EP018005HU2-1MG","price":2466.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug","offer_id":53065453273453,"sku":"CSB-EP018005HU2-100UG","price":578.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ug","offer_id":53065453306221,"sku":"CSB-EP018005HU2-20UG","price":306.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/CSB-EP018005HU2-SDS.jpg?v=1772476503","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/recombinant-human-phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-regulatory-subunit-beta-pik3r2-partial-bhp10509820","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
