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,

Inositol phosphate kinases in the eukaryote landscape [PDF]
Inositol phosphate encompasses a large multifaceted family of signalling molecules that originate from the combinatorial attachment of phosphate groups to the inositol ring. To date, four distinct inositol kinases have been identified, namely, IPK, ITPK,

Inositol phosphate pathway evolution and synthesis in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]
Inositol phosphates (InsPs) are polar water-soluble derivatives of the six- carbon cyclitol inositol. They are synthesized, through phosphorylation reactions, by kinases of four distinct families: IPK, IP5-2K, ITPK1 and PPIP5K, which are thought to be ...

One scaffold, two conformations: the ring-flip of the messenger InsP8 occurs under cytosolic conditions [PDF]
Inositol poly- and pyrophosphates (InsPs and PP-InsPs) are central eukaryotic messengers. These very highly phosphorylated molecules can exist in two distinct conformations, a canonical one with five phosphoryl groups in equatorial positions, and a ...

Importance of Radioactive Labelling to Elucidate Inositol Polyphosphate Signalling [PDF]
Inositol polyphosphates, in their water-soluble or lipid-bound forms, represent a large and multifaceted family of signalling molecules. Some inositol polyphosphates are well recognised as defining important signal transduction pathways, as in the case ...

Analysis of inositol phosphate metabolism by capillary electrophoresis electrospray ionization mass spectrometry [PDF]
The analysis of myo-inositol phosphates (InsPs) and myo-inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs) is a daunting challenge due to the large number of possible isomers, the absence of a chromophore, the high charge density, the low abundance, and the instability ...

Application of CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology in basic research, diagnosis and treatment of colon cancer [PDF]
Colon cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and its progression is accompanied by a complex array of genetic variations. CRISPR/Cas9 can identify new drug-resistant or sensitive mutations in colon cancer, and can use gene editing ...

First synthetic analogues of diphosphoinositol polyphosphates: interaction with PP-InsP5 kinase [PDF]
We synthesised analogues of diphosphoinositol polyphosphates (PP-InsPs) in which the diphosphate is replaced by an α-phosphonoacetic acid (PA) ester. Structural analysis revealed that 5-PA-InsP5 mimics 5-PP-InsP 5 binding to the kinase domain of PPIP5K2;
