title: Metabolism of inositol-1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate to inositol pentakisphosphate in adrenal glomerulosa cells.
abstract: Angiotensin II stimulates rapid formation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P3) in bovine adrenal glomerulosa cells. In addition to being rapidly metabolized to lower inositol phosphates, Ins-1,4,5-P3 is converted to Ins-1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins-1,3,4,5-P4) and Ins-1,3,4-P3 which is in turn phosphorylated to a further Ins-P4 isomer, namely Ins-1,3,4,6-P4. In bovine adrenocortical cytosol [3H]Ins-1,3,4,5-P4 and [3H]Ins-1,3,4-P3 were converted to Ins-1,3,4,6-P4 and inositol pentakisphosphate (Ins-P5) in a metabolic sequence suggesting that unlike Ins-1,3,4,5-P4, Ins-1,3,4,6-P4 is a direct precursor of Ins-P5. Consistent with this assumption, [3H]Ins-1,3,4,6-P4 was converted to Ins-P5 in electropermeabilized adrenal glomerulosa cells. These findings demonstrate that Ins-1,3,4,6-P4 is an intermediate link between InsP3 metabolism and the higher inositol phosphates detected in several tissues.
