BACKGROUND: 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) .
