Phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinases have been shown to have critical roles in signaling pathways that regulate proliferation, oncogenic transformation, cell survival, cell migration, and intracellular protein trafficking. We have previously used reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction methods to identify novel PI 3-kinase isoforms in normal human breast and in lymph nodes containing metastatic breast cancer. Here we report the cDNA cloning of a Class II PI 3-kinase found in normal breast tissue. This gene (PIK3C2G) encodes the third distinct protein of the human Class II PI 3-kinase family, PI3K-C2gamma. PIK3C2G was mapped to chromosome 12 at 12p12 by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
