Versatile signaling mechanisms of inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2022
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 ...

Activities and Structure-Function Analysis of Fission Yeast Inositol Pyrophosphate (IPP) Kinase-Pyrophosphatase Asp1 and Its Impact on Regulation of pho1 Gene Expression

open access: yesmBio, 2022
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 ...

Structural insight into inositol pyrophosphate turnover [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Biological Regulation, 2013
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.

Activities, substrate specificity, and genetic interactions of fission yeast Siw14, a cysteinyl-phosphatase-type inositol pyrophosphatase

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Inositol pyrophosphate 1,5-IP8 is a signaling molecule that regulates phosphate and polyphosphate homeostasis in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. 1,5-IP8 levels are dictated by a balance between the Asp1 kinase domain that converts 5-IP7 to 1,

Protein pyrophosphorylation: moving forward [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Genetic ablation of inositol pyrophosphate synthesis has established the fundamental importance of this class of molecules to the eukaryote cell. These studies, however, must be complemented by cell biology and biochemical approaches to appreciate the ...

Development of a homogenous high-throughput assay for inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
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

Inositols in Insulin Signaling and Glucose Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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

Cigarette Smoke (CS) and Nicotine Delay Neutrophil Spontaneous Death via Suppressing Production of Diphosphoinositol Pentakisphosphate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (InsP7), a higher inositol phosphate containing energetic pyrophosphate bonds, is beginning to emerge as a key cellular signaling molecule.

A tale of two inositol trisphosphates. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Between spring 1982 and autumn 1984 the physiological role of Ins(1,4,5)P3 as a calcium-mobilizing second messenger was first suggested and then experimentally established.
