Inositol Pyrophosphate Pyrotechnics [PDF]
Physiologic roles of highly phosphorylated inositol phosphates, including those containing pyrophosphate groups, have been the focus of much recent interest. In the April 6, 2007 issue of Science, two papers (Lee et al., 2007; Mulugu et al., 2007) demonstrate the occurrence of a novel inositol pyrophosphate molecule in yeast and elucidate its role in ...

Preparation of Quality Inositol Pyrophosphates [PDF]
Myo-inositol is present in nature either unmodified or in more complex phosphorylated derivates. Of the latest, the two most abundant in eukaryotic cells are inositol pentakisphosphate (IP(5;)) and inositol hexakisphosphate (phytic acid or IP(6;)).

The Vip1 inositol polyphosphate kinase family regulates polarized growth and modulates the microtubule cytoskeleton in fungi. [PDF]
Microtubules (MTs) are pivotal for numerous eukaryotic processes ranging from cellular morphogenesis, chromosome segregation to intracellular transport. Execution of these tasks requires intricate regulation of MT dynamics.

Structural insight into inositol pyrophosphate turnover [PDF]
The diphosphoinositol polyphosphates ("inositol pyrophosphates"; PP-InsPs) regulate many cellular processes in eukaryotes, including stress responses, apoptosis, vesicle trafficking, cytoskeletal dynamics, exocytosis, telomere maintenance, insulin signaling and neutrophil activation.

Regulation of plant biotic interactions and abiotic stress responses by inositol polyphosphates
Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs), derivatives of inositol hexakisphosphate (phytic acid, InsP6) or lower inositol polyphosphates, are energy-rich signaling molecules that have critical regulatory functions in eukaryotes. In plants, the biosynthesis and

Versatile signaling mechanisms of inositol pyrophosphates
Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs) constitute a group of highly charged messengers, which regulate central biological processes in health and disease, such as cellular phosphate and general energy homeostasis. Deciphering the molecular mechanisms underlying PP-InsP-mediated signaling remains a challenge due to the unique properties of these molecules ...

Inositol pyrophosphates (IPPs) are signaling molecules that regulate cellular phosphate homeostasis in diverse eukaryal taxa. In fission yeast, mutations that increase 1,5-IP8 derepress the PHO regulon while mutations that ablate IP8 synthesis are PHO ...
