Gene Symbol PIK3CA
Synonyms CCM4 | CLAPO | CLOVE | CWS5 | HMH | MCAP | MCM | MCMTC | p110-alpha | PI3K | PI3K-alpha
Gene Description PIK3CA, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha, activates PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling to promote cell proliferation (PMID: 23411347, PMID: 31905960). PIK3CA activating mutations have been identified in a number of tumor types such as breast cancer (PMID: 32234362, PMID: 32404150), colon cancer (PMID: 32099598), endometrial cancer, glioblastoma, skin cancer, ovarian cancer (PMID: 20535651, PMID: 31892193), and mammary angiosarcoma (PMID: 32123305), and PIK3CA amplification has been observed in esophageal adenocarcinoma (PMID: 31865178).

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Spaces will be interpreted literally in the search. Use the percentage character '%' as a wildcard to search for multiple values
  • When searching for values delimited by '%', searches are ordered by their appearance in the text. (i.e. 'A%C' will likely return different results than 'C%A')
  • Precede text with a caret '^' to indicate search should "start with" the text
  • Follow text with a dollar sign '$' to indicate search should "end with" the preceding text

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
