Fifteen rare cancer-derived mutants of PIK3CA, the gene coding for the catalytic subunit p110α of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), were examined for their biological and biochemical properties. Fourteen of these mutants show a gain of function: they induce rapamycin-sensitive oncogenic transformation of chicken embryo fibroblasts, constitutive...
