Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-IPs) such as 5-diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (5-IP7) are inositol metabolites with high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds. The formation of PP-IPs is catalyzed by two groups of enzymes, the IP6 kinases and the PPIP5 kinases,

Fluorination Influences the Bioisostery of Myo-Inositol Pyrophosphate Analogs. [PDF]
How do pyrophosphate analogs compare? The synthesis of a fluorinated analog of an inositol pyrophosphate messenger is reported. Comparison of the physicochemical and biochemical properties of a range of closely related analogs showcases that subtle modifications can distinctly influence the behavior of molecules.

NUDIX hydrolases target specific inositol pyrophosphates and regulate phosphate homeostasis and bacterial pathogen susceptibility in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
NUDIX‐type hydrolase enzymes of subclade I and II preferentially target the inositol pyrophosphate messengers 4‐ and 3‐InsP7, respectively. Inactivation of subclade II NUDTs disrupts phosphate homeostasis and enhances bacterial resistance, revealing connections between defense and nutrient signaling.

IP6K and PPIP5K are two kinases involved in the synthesis of inositol pyrophosphates. Synthetic analogs or mimics are necessary to understand the substrate specificity of these enzymes and to find molecules that can alter inositol pyrophosphate synthesis.

The Significance of the Bifunctional Kinase/Phosphatase Activities of Diphosphoinositol Pentakisphosphate Kinases (PPIP5Ks) for Coupling Inositol Pyrophosphate Cell Signaling to Cellular Phosphate Homeostasis [PDF]
Proteins responsible for Pi homeostasis are critical for all life. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, extracellular [Pi] is “sensed” by the inositol-hexakisphosphate kinase (IP6K) that synthesizes the intracellular inositol pyrophosphate 5-diphosphoinositol 1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate (5-InsP7) as follows: during a period of Pi starvation, there is a decline

Potential therapies targeting nuclear metabolic regulation in cancer
1. Cell metabolism and gene control are significantly integrated and regulated by one another. 2. There is a positive feedback loop of metabolism‐epigenetics‐gene regulation which control cancer progression. 3. The discovery of metabolic enzymes and their functions in the nucleus will provide more insights into cancer therapy.

Summary Stress and nutrient availability influence cell proliferation through complex intracellular signalling networks. In a previous study it was found that pyro‐inositol polyphosphates (InsP7 and InsP8) produced by VIP1 kinase, and target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase signalling interacted synergistically to control cell growth and lipid metabolism in ...

Can Inositol Pyrophosphates Inform Strategies for Developing Low Phytate Crops?
Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs) are an emerging class of “high-energy” intracellular signaling molecules, containing one or two diphosphate groups attached to an inositol ring, that are connected with phosphate sensing, jasmonate signaling,
