The highly conserved eukaryotic PPIP5K family of bifunctional enzymes regulate cellular levels of 1,5-InsP8, a high-energy molecule involved in a multitude of biological processes. Members of this family contain two opposing activities: an N-terminus ATP-grasp kinase domain synthesizing 1,5-InsP8 and a C-terminus pyrophosphatase domain degrading 1,5-InsP8. While biochemical characterization of members of this family is vital, we present a complementary, simple, and very fast in vivo assay in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, for the functional assessment of kinase and pyrophosphatase activities of PPIP5K family members of any species.

摘要

The highly conserved eukaryotic PPIP5K family of bifunctional enzymes regulate cellular levels of 1,5-InsP8, a high-energy molecule involved in a multitude of biological processes. Members of this family contain two opposing activities: an N-terminus ATP-grasp kinase domain synthesizing 1,5-InsP8 and a C-terminus pyrophosphatase domain degrading 1,5-InsP8. While biochemical characterization of members of this family is vital, we present a complementary, simple, and very fast in vivo assay in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, for the functional assessment of kinase and pyrophosphatase activities of PPIP5K family members of any species.
