Biochemical and structural characterization of an inositol pyrophosphate kinase from a giant virus
Kinases that synthesize inositol phosphates (IPs) and pyrophosphates (PP-IPs) control numerous biological processes in eukaryotic cells. Herein, we extend this cellular signaling repertoire to viruses. We have biochemically and structurally characterized

Role of transporters in regulating mammalian intracellular inorganic phosphate
This review summarizes the current understanding of the role of plasma membrane transporters in regulating intracellular inorganic phosphate ([Pi]In) in mammals. Pi influx is mediated by SLC34 and SLC20 Na+-Pi cotransporters.

Iron and Other Metal Ions in Human Health and Disease
Iron, copper, zinc, and calcium orchestrate cellular function through distinct yet cooperative mechanisms: redox‐active iron and copper cycle between oxidation states to act as Fenton catalysts and electron carriers in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS); redox‐inert zinc serves as a structural component of zinc‐finger proteins and a catalytic cofactor ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates is a posttranslational event [PDF]
In a previous study, we showed that the inositol pyrophosphate diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (IP 7 ) physiologically phosphorylates mammalian and yeast proteins. We now report that this phosphate transfer reflects pyrophosphorylation.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to characterize the proteome of sperm and seminal plasma (SP) from rams with high semen freezability (HF) and low semen freezability (LF). Eleven ejaculates were collected from 12 rams, at 3‐day intervals, and cryopreserved (132 semen samples).

Plant phosphate (Pi) homeostasis relies on coordinated activities of the inositol polyphosphate kinases IPK1 and ITPK1, which balance localized InsP7 biosynthesis to control COP9 signalosome (CSN)‐dependent deneddylation of cullin 1 (CUL1). Perturbation of this equilibrium affects the stability of SPX4, a key negative regulator of phosphate starvation ...

Inositol Pyrophosphates as Versatile Metabolic Messengers
Discovered in 1993, inositol pyrophosphates are evolutionarily conserved signaling metabolites whose versatile modes of action are being increasingly appreciated. These include their emerging roles as energy regulators, phosphodonors, steric/allosteric regulators, and G protein–coupled receptor messengers.

The mediator subunit SlMED25 and the co‐repressor SlSPX2 competitively bind the N‐terminal domain of the phosphate starvation response transcription factor SlPHR3 in tomato to form a sensitive molecular switch, which dynamically modulates phosphate starvation responses and maintains phosphate homeostasis, offering valuable targets for breeding low ...

Inositol pyrophosphates modulate hydrogen peroxide signalling
Inositol pyrophosphates are involved in a variety of cellular functions, but the specific pathways and/or downstream targets remain poorly characterized. In the present study we use Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants to examine the potential roles of inositol pyrophosphates in responding to cell damage caused by ROS (reactive oxygen species).

Mass spectrometry analysis of inositol pyrophosphates purified from D. Discoideum cell extract.
Gel purified inositol pyrophosphates (A) were subjected to mass spectrometry (B,C). The comparison of the m/z spectrum of IP7 (B) and IP8 (C) is shown. The peaks in the spectra describing inositol pyrophosphates purified from D.
