Synthetic tools for studying the chemical biology of InsP8 [PDF]
To synthesise stabilised mimics of InsP8, the most phosphorylated inositol phosphate signalling molecule in Nature, we replaced its two diphosphate (PP) groups with either phosphonoacetate (PA) or methylenebisphosphonate (PCP) groups.

Diversification in the inositol tris/tetrakisphosphate kinase (ITPK) family: crystal structure and enzymology of the outlier AtITPK4 [PDF]
Myo-inositol tris/tetrakisphosphate kinases (ITPKs) catalyze diverse phosphotransfer reactions with myo-inositol phosphate and myo-inositol pyrophosphate substrates. However, the lack of structures of nucleotide-coordinated plant ITPKs thwarts a rational

Absolute Quantitation of Inositol Pyrophosphates by Capillary Electrophoresis Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs) are an important group of intracellular signaling molecules. Derived from inositol phosphates (InsPs), these molecules feature the presence of at least one energetic pyrophosphate moiety on the myo-inositol ring.

An ATP-responsive metabolic cassette comprised of inositol tris/tetrakisphosphate kinase 1 (ITPK1) and inositol pentakisphosphate 2-kinase (IPK1) buffers diphosphosphoinositol phosphate levels [PDF]
Inositol polyphosphates are ubiquitous molecular signals in metazoans, as are their pyrophosphorylated derivatives that bear a so-called 'high-energy' phosphoanhydride bond.

CHARACTERIZING FERROPTOSIS PATHWAYS IN IN VITRO MOTOR NEURON MODELS [PDF]
Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic regulated form of cell death driven by the toxic accumulation of lipid peroxides and the presence of iron. The mechanism by which ferroptosis operates requires further investigation; here I will discuss the findings ...

Arabidopsis ITPK1 and ITPK2 Have an Evolutionarily Conserved Phytic Acid Kinase Activity [PDF]
Diphospho-myo-inositol polyphosphates, also termed inositol pyrophosphates, are molecular messengers containing at least one high-energy phosphoanhydride bond and regulate a wide range of cellular processes in eukaryotes.

PPIP5K2 and PCSK1 are Candidate Genetic Contributors to Familial Keratoconus [PDF]
Keratoconus (KC) is the most common corneal ectatic disorder affecting >300,000 people in the US. KC normally has its onset in adolescence, progressively worsening through the third to fourth decades of life.

VIH2 Regulates the Synthesis of Inositol Pyrophosphate InsP₈ and Jasmonate-Dependent Defenses in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Diphosphorylated inositol polyphosphates, also referred to as inositol pyrophosphates, are important signaling molecules that regulate critical cellular activities in many eukaryotic organisms, such as membrane trafficking, telomere maintenance, ribosome

Developing Dictyostelium discoideum as a model to study the synthesis and metabolism of inositol pyrophosphates and inorganic polyphosphate [PDF]
Inositol pyrophosphates and inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) represent two of the most phosphate-rich molecules in the cell. However, the synthesis, metabolism and function of these “high-energy” molecules are not well understood.
