General description

Inositol phospholipid species are membrane-bound signaling molecules that have been implicated in almost all aspects of cellular physiology, including cellular growth, metabolism, proliferation, and survival.
Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) is a structural phospholipid. PI is synthesized by mycobacteria and other bacterial genera in prokaryotes.

Application

16:0 PI has been used as internal lipid standard for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)- fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR)- mass spectrometry (MS) and analysis. It is also suitable for use as an internal standard for mass spectrometric analyses.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylinositol (PI) participates in polyphosphoinositide turnover. It can be used as a substrate to produce several molecules, that can modulate various cellular functions. In eukaryotes, phosphatidylinositol (PI)-based lipids (phosphoinositides) plays a key role in intracellular signalling. It is also involved in the anchoring of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked proteins to the membrane.

Adherence of the fungus, Candida albicans, to biotic (e.g. human tissues) and abiotic (e.g. catheters) surfaces can lead to emergence of opportunistic infections in humans. The process of adhesion and further biofilm development depends, in part, on cell surface hydrophobicity
