Metabolism of myo-inositol during sporulation of myo-inositol-requiring Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Journal of Bacteriology, 1981
We investigated the sporulation properties of a series of diploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains homozygous for inositol auxotrophic markers. The strains required different amounts of inositol for the completion of sporulation. Shift experiments revealed two phases of inositol requirement during sporulation which coincided with the two phases of ...

The total synthesis of myo-inositol phosphates via myo-inositol orthoformate

Journal of the Chemical Society, Perkin Transactions 1, 1989
Novel selective alkylations of myo-inositol orthoformate (4) have been used to prepare a series of protected myo-inositol derivatives, (5a–e), (7), (10), (12), and (16). These intermediates have been used in efficient total syntheses of myo-inositol 2-phosphate, (9); myo-inositol 4-phosphate, (6); myo-inositol 1,3-bisphosphate, (18); and myo-inositol 1,

Synthesis of myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetraphosphate and myo-inositol 1,3-bisphosphate

Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, 1987
myo-Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetraphosphate, myo-inositol 3,4-bisphosphate, and myo-inositol 4-phosphate have been prepared via routes in which a key step is a novel, highly regioselective monoalkylation of myo-inositol orthoformate.

myo-Inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate

Phytochemistry, 2003
myo-Inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate (Ins P(6)) was first described as an abundant form of phosphorus in plant seeds and other plant tissues and dubbed "phytic acid". Subsequently it was found to be a common constituent in eukaryotic cells, its metabolism a basic component of cellular housekeeping.

Desymmetrization of myo-inositol

Carbohydrate Research
Chemistry and biology of phosphoinositols have been intensely investigated areas of research over the last 4-5 decades due to their involvement in cellular signal transduction pathways. Efficient laboratory synthesis of enantiomeric derivatives of inositols was a central issue since they were required for the delineation of the myo-inositol cycle as ...

Myo-inositol content of common foods: development of a high-myo-inositol diet

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1980
Since virtually no information is available concerning the myo-inositol content of dietary constituents, we have measured the amount of this material present in 487 foods by gas-liquid chromatography. We observed that the greatest amounts of myo-inositol were present in fruits, beans, grains, and nuts.

Myo-Inositol content determined by myo-inositol biosynthesis and oxidation in blueberry fruit

Food Chemistry, 2016
Myo-inositol metabolism in plant edible organs has become the focus of many recent studies because of its benefits to human health and unique functions in plant development. In this study, myo-inositol contents were analyzed during the development of two blueberry cultivars, cv 'Berkeley' and cv 'Bluecrop'.

Desymmetrization of 4,6-diprotected myo-inositol

Chemical Communications, 2013
The asymmetric desymmetrization of 4,6-diprotected myo-inositol derivatives was achieved by using a bifunctional, readily available nucleophilic catalyst. The orthogonally protected products were obtained in 80-99% yield with 90-99% ee. Such structures serve as potential enantiopure building blocks for the synthesis of myo-inositol phosphates.

1l-myo-Inositol-1-phosphate synthase

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1997
1L-myo-Inositol-1-phosphate synthase catalyzes the conversion of D-glucose 6-phosphate to 1L-myo-inositol-1-phosphate, the first committed step in the production of all inositol-containing compounds, including phospholipids, either directly or by salvage. The enzyme exists in a cytoplasmic form in a wide range of plants, animals, and fungi. It has also

The enzymic phosphorylation of myo-inositol

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1965
Abstract Myo-inositol is known to be an important precursor of polysaccharides and of ascorbic acid and other smaller metabolites (Loewus, 1963) . A number of workers have demonstrated in cell-free systems the direct incorporation of free myo-inositol into myo-inositol monophosphatides (Paulus and Kennedy, 1960) .
