Overview

This volume summarizes current research on cellular signal transduction involving inositol phosphates and phospholipids, and features contributions from some of the leading laboratories. The chapters span three key topics: the metabolism of inositol phosphates and identification of proteins that interact with polyphosphorylated phosphatidylinositols; the mechanisms and structure of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C; and the synthesis and biological properties of analogs for phosphoinositides.

Reviews

<br> This volume is based on the contents of a September 1997 symposium held in Las Vegas. The 18 contributions provide up-to-date summaries of several areas in the field, and reflect qualitative changes in the role of inositol phosphate signaling in the cells and understanding the molecular mechanisms of inositol-related signal transduction pathways. Three sections address inositol phosphate metabolism and inositol phospholipid binding proteins, the mechanism and structure of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipases C, and the synthesis and biological properties of analogs and phosphoinositides. --SciTech Book News<br> This book, the result of collaborations between cellular biologists, biochemists, and chemists, brings together the latest developments in the study of inositol phospholipids and covers inositol signaling pathways at both the cellular and molecular levels. The 18 papers are drawn from a symposium sponsored by the Division of Carbohydrate Chemistry at the 214th Natio
