Biophysicochemical PropertiesKinetic parameters: KM=0.57 mM for 6-phosphate ; KM=8 uM for NAD ; pH dependence: Optimum pH is 8.0. ;
Catalytic ActivityD-glucose 6-phosphate = 1D-myo-inositol 3- phosphate.
CofactorName=NAD(+); Xref=ChEBI
Enzyme RegulationInhibited by mood-stabilizing drugs such as valproate (VPA) and lithium. {ECO
FunctionKey enzyme in myo-inositol biosynthesis pathway that catalyzes the conversion of glucose 6-phosphate to 1-myo-inositol 1-phosphate in a NAD-dependent manner. Rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of all inositol-containing compounds.
InductionBy glucose and lovastain. Up-regulation is prevented by mevalonic acid, farnesol, and geranylgeraniol. Up-regulated by E2F1.
PathwayPolyol metabolism; myo-inositol biosynthesis; myo- inositol from D-glucose 6-phosphate: step 1/2.
Sequence CautionSequence=AAP97151.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=82, 85, 496; Evidence= ;
SimilarityBelongs to the myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase family.
Subcellular LocationCytoplasm .
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in testis, ovary, heart, placenta and pancreas. Weakly expressed in blood leukocyte, thymus, skeletal muscle and colon.
