Abstract excerpt
Phosphoinositides regulate numerous cellular events via the recruitment and activation of multiple lipid-binding effector proteins. The precise temporal and spatial regulation of phosphoinositide signals by the co-ordinated activities of phosphoinositide kinases and phosphatases is essential for homeostasis and development. Mutations in two inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, INPP5E and OCRL, cause the...
