Abstract
Some aspects of the roles of inositol trisphosphate (Insp3) and inosit ol tetrakisphosphate (Insp4) in Ca2+ homeostasis in terms of inositol trisphosphate 3-kinase B (IP3K-B) localization and activity are discus sed. The model that rye propose is also compatible with IP3K-B partici pating in the widely reported phenomenon of quantal release of Ca2+ fr om internal stores, at least in some biological systems.
