text Upon binding to CD28, the PI3K enzyme catalyzes the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) to generate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3). This conversion of PIP2 to PIP3 is significant as PIP3 acts as a docking site on the plasma membrane for several downstream signaling molecules, including 3-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1) and protein kinase B (PKB or Akt), which are essential for T cell proliferation, survival, and activation (Pages et al. 1994, Appleman et al. 2002).
