ABSTRACT The combinatorial phosphorylation of myo-inositol results in the generation different inositol phosphates (InsP), which phytic acid (InsP 6 ) is most abundant species eukaryotes. InsP also precursor higher phosphorylated forms called pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs), such as 7 and 8 , are characterized by a diphosphate moiety ubiquitously found eukaryotic cells. While PP-InsPs regulate various cellular processes animals yeast, their biosynthesis functions plants has remained largely...
Abstract The propensity for polyphosphorylation makes myo -inositol derivatives, the inositol polyphosphates (InsPs), especially phytic acid or hexakisphosphate (InsP 6 ) major form of phosphate storage in plants. Acts pyrophosphorylation on InsP generates 7 8 containing high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds that are harnessed during energy requirements a cell. Also implicated as co-factors several phytohormone signaling networks, /InsP modulate key developmental processes. With recent...
