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.
