S. Ballereau et al., Synthesis, acid-base behavior, and binding properties of 6-modified myo-inositol 1,4,5-tris (phosphate)s, J MED CHEM, 42(23), 1999, pp. 4824-4835
myo-Inositol 1,4,5-tris(phosphate) was modified at position 6. The analogue
s synthesized are reported in this publication are 6-deoxy-myo-inositol 1,4
,5-tris(phosphate), 6-fluoro-6-deoxy-myo-inositol 1,4,5-tris(phosphate), ep
i-inositol 1,4,5-tris(phosphate), and 6-amino-6-deoxy-myo-inositol 1,4,5-tr
is(phosphate). These derivatives showed poor affinity for the Ins(1,4,5)P-3
receptors. The inframolecular acid-base behavior and the cooperative effec
ts between the phosphate groups could help explain the loss of affinity of
these 6-modified analogues.
