Title: The versatility of inositol phosphates as cellular signals. Author: Shears SB. Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1998 Dec 08; 1436(1-2):49-67. PubMed ID: 9838040. Abstract: Cells from across the phylogenetic spectrum contain a variety of inositol phosphates. Many different functions have been ascribed to this group of compounds. However, it is remarkable how frequently several of these different inositol phosphates have been linked to various aspects of signal transduction. Therefore, this review assesses the evidence that inositol phosphates have evolved into a versatile family of second messengers.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
