Abstract excerpt
Despite the high deposition of inositol hexakisphosphate (IP(6)), also known as phytate or phytin, in certain plant tissues little is known at the molecular level about the pathway(s) involved in its production. In budding yeast, IP(6) synthesis occurs through the sequential phosphorylation of I(1,4,5)P(3) by two gene products, Ipk2 and Ipk1, a IP(3)/IP(4) dual-specificity 6-/3-kinase and an inositol...
