PIK3R4 (phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 4, also known as VPS15) is a 150kD adaptor protein that enhances the lipid kinase activity of PIK3 complexes and may be involved in regulating membrane trafficking late in the endocytic pathway and autophagy (1,2). PIK3R4 is ubiquitously expressed and contains 7 WD repeats, 3 HEAT repeats and 1 protein kinase domain (1). PIK3R4 is crucial for VPS34 function and is necessary for autophagosome formation in multicellular animals and reveal an important role of VPS15 in cellular protection against ubiquitin-positive protein aggregates (3-5).
