Abstract

PI3-kinases regulate a wide range of cellular responses through the production of phosphatidylinositol 3, 4, 5-trisphosphate [PI (3, 4, 5) P (3)] in cellular membranes. This protocol provides a highly efficient and easy-to-handle method for sensitive detection and quantification of PI 3-kinase activity.
