Application
16:0 PI has been used as internal lipid standardfor matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)- fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR)- mass spectrometry (MS) and analysis. It is also suitable for use as an internal standard for mass spectrometric analyses.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Phosphatidylinositol(PI) participates in polyphosphoinositide turnover. It can be used as a substrate to produce several molecules, that can modulate various cellular functions. In eukaryotes, phosphatidylinositol (PI)-based lipids (phosphoinositides) plays a key role in intracellular signalling. It is also involved in the anchoring of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked proteins to the membrane.
General description
Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) is a structuralphospholipid. PI is synthesized by mycobacteria and other bacterial genera in prokaryotes.
Inositol phospholipid species are membrane-bound signaling molecules that have been implicated in almost all aspects of cellular physiology, including cellular growth, metabolism, proliferation, and survival.
