Non-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor IP3-binding proteins
Conventionally, myo-D-inositol 1, 4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) is thought to exert its second messenger effects through the gating of IP3R Ca2+ release channels, located in Ca2+-storage organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum. However, there is considerable indirect evidence to support the concept that IP3 might interact with other, non-IP3R proteins ...

IP3 signalling regulates exogenous RNAi in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
RNA interference (RNAi) is a widespread and widely exploited phenomenon. Here, we show that changing inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) signalling alters RNAi sensitivity in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Excluded-Mean-Variance Neural Decision Analyzer for Qualitative Group Decision Making
Many qualitative group decisions in professional fields such as law, engineering, economics, psychology, and medicine that appear to be crisp and certain are in reality shrouded in fuzziness as a result of uncertain environments and the nature of human ...

Synthesis and two-photon photolysis of 6-(ortho-nitroveratryl)-caged IP3 in living cells
The synthesis of a photolabile derivative of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) is described. This new caged second messenger (6-ortho-nitroveratryl)-IP3 (6-NV-IP3) has an extinction coefficient of 5000 M(-1) cm(-1) at 350 nm, and a quantum yield of ...

A Direct Interaction between IP3 Receptors and Myosin II Regulates IP3 Signaling in C. elegans [PDF]
Molecular and physiological studies of cells implicate interactions between the cytoskeleton and the intracellular calcium signalling machinery as an important mechanism for the regulation of calcium signalling [1–11].

A novel Bacillus thuringiensis Cry protein, Cry8Hb, active against Diabrotica virgifera virgifera (Western corn rootworm, WCRW) was discovered. Unexpectedly, the anti-rootworm activity of the Cry8Hb toxin was enhanced significantly by fusing Escherichia ...

Loss of endoplasmic reticular (ER) Ca2+ activates store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) by causing the ER localized Ca2+ sensor STIM to unfurl domains that activate Orai channels in the plasma membrane at membrane contact sites (MCS).

Smooth muscle responds to IP3-generating (sarcolemma acting) neurotransmitters and hormones by releasing Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) via IP3 receptors (IP3Rs). This release may propagate as Ca2+ waves.

Objective The second messenger inositol triphosphate (IP3) is involved in signal transduction in multiple cell types. We evaluated the effects of high-dose levocetirizine on chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and examined the significance of serum IP3 ...

KRAP tethers IP3 receptors to actin and licenses them to evoke cytosolic Ca2+ signals
Calcium signals initiated by IP3 receptors in ER membranes regulate most cellular activities. Here, the authors show that KRas-induced actininteracting protein (KRAP) tethers a small subset of IP3 receptors to actin and licenses them to evoke cytosolic ...
