Phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 3-kinase, catalytic subunit type 2 gamma (PIK3C2G) is a gene that encodes a protein that is a member of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase family. The protein is involved in cell signaling pathways that regulate cell proliferation, onogenic transformation, cell survival, cell migration, and intracellular protein trafficking. Missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, and frameshift deletions and insertions are observed in cancers such as cancers of the biliary tract, intestinal cancer, and skin cancer.

PIK3C2G is altered in 3.00% of all cancers with lung adenocarcinoma, cutaneous melanoma, colon adenocarcinoma, endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma, and prostate adenocarcinoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].

The most common alterations in PIK3C2G are PIK3C2G Mutation (2.05%), PIK3C2G Amplification (0.57%), PIK3C2G Loss (0.11%), PIK3C2G R738C (0.04%), and PIK3C2G E1394K (0.03%) [3].
