A small signaling domain controls PPIP5K phosphatase activity in phosphate homeostasis. [PDF]
Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs) are eukaryotic nutrient messengers. The N-terminal kinase domain of diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate kinase (PPIP5K) generates the messenger 1,5-InsP8, the C-terminal phosphatase domain catalyzes PP-InsP breakdown ...

Metabolic supervision by PPIP5K, an inositol pyrophosphate kinase/phosphatase, controls proliferation of the HCT116 tumor cell line. [PDF]
Significance Central carbon metabolism has the overlapping functions of converting substrate into biomass and the extraction and storage of chemical energy. These metabolic pathways are rewired by cancer cells to selectively support increased biomass demands.
