Pharmacological Inhibition of Inositol Hexakisphosphate Kinase 1 Protects Mice against Obesity-Induced Bone Loss [PDF]
Obesity and type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are prominent risk factors for secondary osteoporosis due to the negative impacts of hyperglycemia and excessive body fat on bone metabolism.

Development of a homogenous high-throughput assay for inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 activity. [PDF]
Inositol pyrophosphates have been implicated in a wide range of cellular processes. Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 catalyzes the pyrophosphorylation of inositol hexakisphosphate into inositol 5-diphospho-1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate which is important

Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase-1 is a key mediator of prepulse inhibition and short-term fear memory [PDF]
Inositol phosphate metabolism has emerged as one of the key players in synaptic transmission. Previous studies have shown that the deletion of inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 (IP6K1), which is responsible for inositol pyrophosphate biosynthesis ...

Multiple aspects of male germ cell development and interactions with Sertoli cells require inositol hexakisphosphate kinase-1 [PDF]
Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase-1 (IP6K1) is required for male fertility, but the underlying mechanisms have been elusive. Here, we report that IP6K1 is required for multiple aspects of male germ cell development.

Neuronal migration is mediated by inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 via α-actinin and focal adhesion kinase. [PDF]
Significance Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 (IP6K1) regulates numerous physiological functions. We describe a role of IP6K1 in neural development, because its deletion results in defects in neuronal migration and brain malformation. IP6K1 physiologically interacts with α-actinin and localizes to focal adhesions.

Inositols in Insulin Signaling and Glucose Metabolism [PDF]
In the past decades, both the importance of inositol for human health and the complex interaction between glucose and inositol have been the subject of increasing consideration. Glucose has been shown to interfere with cellular transmembrane transport of

Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase-1 interacts with perilipin1 to modulate lipolysis. [PDF]
Lipolysis leads to the breakdown of stored triglycerides (TAG) to release free fatty acids (FFA) and glycerol which is utilized by energy expenditure pathways to generate energy. Therefore, a decrease in lipolysis augments fat accumulation in adipocytes which promotes weight gain.

Inositol Hexakisphosphate Kinase 1 (IP6K1) Regulates Inositol Synthesis in Mammalian Cells. [PDF]
myo-Inositol, the precursor of all inositol compounds, has pivotal roles in cell metabolism and signaling pathways. Although physiological studies indicate a strong correlation between abnormal intracellular inositol levels and neurological disorders, very little is known about the regulation of inositol synthesis in mammalian cells.

Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 (IP6K1) activity is required for cytoplasmic dynein-driven transport. [PDF]
Inositol pyrophosphates, such as diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (IP7), are conserved eukaryotic signaling molecules that possess pyrophosphate and monophosphate moieties. Generated predominantly by inositol hexakisphosphate kinases (IP6Ks), inositol pyrophosphates can modulate protein function by posttranslational serine pyrophosphorylation. Here,

Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 is a metabolic sensor in pancreatic β-cells.
Diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (IP7) is critical for the exocytotic capacity of the pancreatic β-cell, but its regulation by the primary instigator of β-cell exocytosis, glucose, is unknown. The high Km for ATP of the IP7-generating enzymes, the inositol hexakisphosphate kinases (IP6K1 and 2) suggests that these enzymes might serve as metabolic ...
