abstract：:Phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase is a cytoplasmic signaling molecule recruited to the membrane by activated growth factor receptors. The p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase links the catalytic p110 subunit to activated growth factor receptors and is required for enzymatic activity of p110. In this report, we describe the eff...
