Biochemical
and molecular characterization of phosphoinositide-specific lipid
kinases
Imara Perera and Ingo
Heilmann
PIP-kinases catalyze the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol-monophosphates
to -bisphosphates. Although the Arabidopsis genome is known
to contain more than 10 putative PIP kinase sequences, little is known
aBOut the biochemical activities of these enzymes. It is our goal
to understand the function of PIP-kinases through biochemical characterization
of substrate-specificity and reaction-specificity of PIP-kinase isoforms.
