1 H NMR detection of cerebral myo -inositol

Dephosphorylation of myo - inositol 1 , 4 , 5 - trisphosphate and myo - inositol 1 , 3 , 4 - trisphosphate Stephen

We have augmented our previous studies [Storey, Shears, Kirk & Michell (1984) Nature (London) 312, 374-376] on the subcellular location and properties ofIns(l ,4,5)P3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) phosphatases in rat liver and human erythrocytes. We also investigate Ins(1,3,4)P3 (inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate) metabolism by rat liver. Membrane-bound and cytosolic Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphatases both ...

Structures of diphospho-myo-inositol pentakisphosphate and bisdiphospho-myo-inositol tetrakisphosphate from Dictyostelium resolved by NMR analysis.

Diphospho-myo-inositol phosphates (PP-InsP5 and bis-PP-InsP4) were isolated from Dictyostelium in order to clarify the precise positional isomerism by two-dimensional 1H/31P-NMR analysis. The diphosphorylated inositol phosphates are 4-PP-Ins(1,2,3,5,6)P5 and 4,5-bis-PP-Ins(1,2,3,6)P4 or their corresponding enantiomers. The vicinal arrangement of the diphospho groups with its steric and electros...

Correlation of myo-inositol levels and grading of cerebral astrocytomas.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In a limited number of patients, the level of myo-inositol (MI), as seen by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (HMRS), has been shown to differ for gliomas of different histologic grades. We sought to determine if MI levels correlate with cerebral astrocytoma grade. METHODS Five control subjects, 14 patients with low-grade astrocytoma, 10 patients with anaplastic as...

Enantiomeric Form of myo-Inositol-1-Phosphate Produced by myo-Inositol-1-Phosphate Synthase and myo-Inositol Kinase in Higher Plants.

The product of myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase, EC 5.5.1.4, from mature pollen of Lilium longiflorum Thunb., cv Ace (Easter lily) and that of myo-inositol kinase, EC 2.7.1.64, from wheat germ has been identified as 1l-myo-inositol-1-phosphate by gas chromatography of its trimethylsilyl-methyl phosphate derivative on a glass capillary column bearing a chiral phase.
