Our goal was to quantitate inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) binding to aldolase C tetramer (aldolase4) and its displacement by inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3) under conditions which approximated the in vivo state. Anions were found to have major effects. Decreasing [KCl] from 100

We have sequenced and recombinantly expressed as a fusion protein an expressed sequence tag clone (GB Z25963) from Arabidopsis thaliana that represents the plant homologue of human inositol 1,3,4 trisphosphate 5/6-kinase. The 1365 base pair clone has an open reading
The synthesis of rac-2,5,6-tri-O-butyryl-myo-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate hexakis(acetoxymethyl) ester [Bt3-Ins(1,3,4)P3/AM, 1], a membrane-permeant derivative of myo-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3] is reported. 1 inhibited calcium-mediated chloride secretion of T84 cells, suggesting a regulatory link of Ins(1,3,4)P3 and the biosynthesis of the known inhibitor myo-inositol

Syntheses of the enantiomers of myo-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate are described. 1,4-Di-O-allyl-myo-inositol was regioselectively p-methoxybenzylated at the 3-position to give 1,4-di-O-allyl-3-O-(p-methoxybenzyl)-myo-inositol followed by benzylation of the remaining free hydroxyl groups to give the key intermediate 1,4-di-O-allyl-2,5,6-tri-O-benzyl-3-O-(p-methoxybenzyl)-myo-inositol. Removal of the p-methoxybenzyl and allyl
The importance of Ca2+-signaling for many subcellular processes is well established in higher eukaryotes, whereas information about protozoa is restricted. Recent genome analyses have stimulated such work also with Alveolates, such as ciliates (Paramecium, Tetrahymena) and their pathogenic close relatives
