PI3-kinase phosphorylates the D-3 position of the inositol ring of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), PtdIns(4)P and PtdIns(4,5)P2 to produce the
respective PI3-phosphorylated derivatives. PI3-kinase exists as a heterodimer of 85 kDa (p85) and 110 kDa (p110) subunits. The p85 subunit
contains two SH2 domains and an SH3 domain. It associates with and serves as a substrate for activated growth factor receptor tyrosine
kinases. p85 may serve as regulator of the catalytic subunit, p110, by acting as the link between PI3-kinase and the ligand-activated receptor.
Two distinct forms of the p85 subunit have been described: 1) p85α, which binds tightly to the catalytic subunit, and 2) p85ß, a protein whose
function is presently unknown. Both isoforms bind to activated receptors and serve as tyrosine kinase substrates.

注意事项:
1.Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
2.Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
