Inositol 1,4,5,6-tetraphosphate

Description:
Inositol 1,4,5,6-tetraphosphate (IP4) is a polyphosphorylated inositol derivative that plays a significant role in cellular signaling and metabolism. It is a second messenger involved in various biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Structurally, IP4 consists of a six-membered cyclohexane ring with four phosphate groups attached at the 1, 4, 5, and 6 positions, which contributes to its high polarity and solubility in aqueous environments. This compound is synthesized from inositol trisphosphate (IP3) through the action of specific kinases and is known to interact with various proteins, influencing cellular responses to external stimuli. Its biological functions are linked to calcium signaling and the regulation of ion channels, making it crucial in neurobiology and other physiological processes. Additionally, alterations in IP4 levels have been associated with various diseases, highlighting its importance in health and disease contexts. Overall, inositol 1,4,5,6-tetraphosphate is a vital molecule in cellular signaling pathways.
