Abstract excerpt
Phosphatidylinositol (PI) is a ubiquitous membrane lipid in eukaryotes. It is becoming increasingly obvious that PI and its metabolites play a myriad of very diverse roles in eukaryotic cells.

Recently, PIS1 expression was found to be regulated in response to carbon source and oxygen...
