Phosphoinositide Profile of the Mouse Retina
Phosphoinositides are known to play multiple roles in eukaryotic cells. Although dysregulation of phosphoinositide metabolism in the retina has been reported to cause visual dysfunction in animal models and human patients, our understanding of the ...

Phosphoinositides in Cell Architecture [PDF]
Inositol phospholipids have been implicated in almost all aspects of cellular physiology including spatiotemporal regulation of cellular signaling, acquisition of cellular polarity, specification of membrane identity, cytoskeletal dynamics, and regulation of cellular adhesion, motility, and cytokinesis.

Phosphoinositides and Photoreceptors [PDF]
The importance of phosphoinositides (phosphorylated phosphatidyl inositol derivatives, PIs) for normal cellular function cannot be overstated. Although they represent a small fraction of the total phospholipid within the cell, they are essential regulators of many cellular functions.

Assessing the Presence of Phosphoinositides on Autophagosomal Membrane in Yeast by Live Cell Imaging. [PDF]
The formation of autophagosomes mediating the sequestration of cytoplasmic materials is the central step of autophagy. Several phosphoinositides, which are signaling molecules on the membrane, are involved in autophagy.

Diverse Physiological Functions of FAB1 and Phosphatidylinositol 3,5-Bisphosphate in Plants
Biological membranes are predominantly composed of structural glycerophospholipids such as phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol. Of the membrane glycerophospholipids, phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) and its phosphorylated

Effects of thyroxine and 1-methyl, 2-mercaptoimidazol on phosphoinositides synthesis in rat liver
Background Phosphoinositides mediate one of the intracellular signal transduction pathways and produce a class of second messengers that are involved in the action of hormones and neurotransmitters on target cells.

The Physiology of Phosphoinositides
Phosphoinositides are a family of phosphorylated derivatives of the membrane lipid phosphatidylinositol. These lipids are highly concentrated in distinct pools located in a cell's plasma membrane, endosomes or nucleus, where they function as ligands for phosphoinositide-binding proteins.

Structural organization and dynamics of FCHo2 docking on membranes
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is a central trafficking pathway in eukaryotic cells regulated by phosphoinositides. The plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) plays an instrumental role in driving CME initiation. The F-BAR
