Genetic suppressor screen identifies Tgp1 (glycerophosphocholine transporter), Kcs1 (IP6 kinase), and Plc1 (phospholipase C) as determinants of inositol pyrophosphate toxicosis in fission yeast [PDF]
The inositol pyrophosphate signaling molecule 1,5-IP8 is an agonist of RNA 3'-processing and transcription termination in fission yeast that regulates the expression of phosphate acquisition genes pho1, pho84, and tgp1.

Robotic-Assisted Capture-Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment of RNA Aptamers Binding to Small Molecules. [PDF]
This study demonstrates the rapid selection of RNA aptamers that can target various small molecules through a newly established automated capture‐systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment technique. Throughout the study, this method is applied to aptamer selection for several small molecules, resulting in aptamers that bind with high ...

A novel method for the purification of inositol phosphates from biological samples reveals that no phytate is present in human plasma or urine [PDF]
Inositol phosphates are a large and diverse family of signalling molecules. While genetic studies have discovered important functions for them, the biochemistry behind these roles is often not fully characterized.

5-Diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (5-IP7) regulates phosphate release from acidocalcisomes and yeast vacuoles [PDF]
Acidocalcisomes of Trypanosoma brucei and the acidocalcisome-like vacuoles of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are acidic calcium compartments that store polyphosphate (polyP). Both organelles possess a phosphate-sodium symporter (TbPho91 and Pho91p in T. brucei and yeast, respectively), but the roles of these transporters in growth and orthophosphate (Pi ...

Inositol Pyrophosphate Metabolism Regulates Presynaptic Vesicle Cycling at Central Synapses
Summary: The coordination of synaptic vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis supports neurotransmitter release from presynaptic terminals. Although inositol pyrophosphates, such as 5-diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (5-IP7), are versatile signaling ...

Nutrient-regulated antisense and intragenic RNAs modulate a signal transduction pathway in yeast. [PDF]
The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae alters its gene expression profile in response to a change in nutrient availability. The PHO system is a well-studied case in the transcriptional regulation responding to nutritional changes in which a set of ...

Synthesis and biological evaluation of flavonoid-based IP6K2 inhibitors
Inositol polyphosphates (IPs) are a group of inositol metabolites that act as secondary messengers for external signalling cues. They play various physiological roles such as insulin release, telomere length maintenance, cell metabolism, and aging ...

Inositols in Insulin Signaling and Glucose Metabolism [PDF]
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
