Application

The enzyme plays a critical role in the recycling of inositol to phosphoinositides in the mammalian brain and participates in the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway. It is inhibited non-competitively by Li+, which may be significant in the treatment of manic depression. The enzyme may help in identifying less toxic substitutes for lithium in manic depressive therapy.

myo-Inositol monophosphatase (myo-inositol-1-phosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.25) is an attractive target for mechanistic investigation due to its critical role in the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway and the possible relevance of its inhibition by Li+ to manic depression therapy. The x-ray crystallographic structure

Inositol monophosphatase (IMPase) family of proteins are Mg(2+) activated Li(+) inhibited class of ubiquitous enzymes with promiscuous substrate specificity. Herein, the molecular basis of IMPase substrate specificity is delineated by comparative crystal structural analysis of a Staphylococcal dual specific IMPase/NADP(H)
