How inositol pyrophosphates control cellular phosphate homeostasis? [PDF]
Phosphorus in his phosphate PO(4)(3-) configuration is an essential constituent of all life forms. Phosphate diesters are at the core of nucleic acid structure, while phosphate monoester transmits information under the control of protein kinases and ...

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 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,

Role of Inositols and Inositol Phosphates in Energy Metabolism
Recently, inositols, especially myo-inositol and inositol hexakisphosphate, also known as phytic acid or IP6, with their biological activities received much attention for their role in multiple health beneficial effects.

Role of the inositol pyrophosphate multikinase Kcs1 in Cryptococcus inositol metabolism [PDF]
Cryptococcus neoformans is the most common cause of deadly fungal meningitis. This fungus has a complex inositol acquisition and utilization system, and our previous studies have shown the importance of inositol utilization in cryptococcal development and virulence. However, how inositol utilization is regulated in this fungus remains unknown.

Inositol Pyrophosphates: Energetic, Omnipresent and Versatile Signalling Molecules [PDF]
Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-IPs) are a class of energy-rich signalling molecules found in all eukaryotic cells. These are derivatives of inositol that contain one or more diphosphate (or pyrophosphate) groups in addition to monophosphates.

The inositol pyrophosphate pathway in health and diseases [PDF]
ABSTRACTInositol pyrophosphates (IPPs) are present in organisms ranging from plants, slime moulds and fungi to mammals. Distinct classes of kinases generate different forms of energetic diphosphate‐containing IPPs from inositol phosphates (IPs). Conversely, polyphosphate phosphohydrolase enzymes dephosphorylate IPPs to regenerate the respective IPs ...
