Literature on INPP4A

INPP4A [ENSP00000074304]

Inositol polyphosphate-4-phosphatase type I A; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the 4-position phosphate of phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P2) (PubMed:20463662, PubMed:15716355). Catalyzes also inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate and inositol 1,4-bisphosphate (By similarity). Antagonizes the PI3K-AKT/PKB signaling pathway by dephosphorylating phosphoinositides and thereby modulating cell cycle progression and cell survival (By similarity). May protect neurons from excitotoxic cell death by regulating the synaptic localization of cell surface N-methyl-D- aspartate-type glutamate receptors (NMDARs) and NMDAR-mediated excitatory postsynaptic current (By similarity).
