Abstract
The phosphoinositide 30H-kinase / PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 signalling system is of critical importance in normal cell function and also plays an important role under pathological conditions. Currently, the major barrier to understanding how PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 regulates cellular processes, and hence which proteins represent the best target for drugs, is a paucity of information about the direct PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 binding proteins or effectors. Our research involves the identification and characterization of novel, intracellular PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 receptors, and to subsequently attempt to derive which cellular processes they control.
