Preparation and Storage

Background: Inositol Monophosphatase 3/IMPAD1

IMPAD1 (Inositol monophosphatase domain-containing protein 1; also IMPA3, gPAPP and IMPase 3) is a 40-42 kDa member of the inositol monophosphatase family of proteins. It is expressed in embryo, and found in Purkinje cells, brain stem, lung and chondrocytes. IMPAD1 in theory may catalyze the synthesis of myo-inositol from myo-inositol monophosphate. Free myo-inositol is used to generate inositol phospholipid, an essential component of intracellular signaling pathways that mobilize calcium. IMPAD1 is reported to promote sulfation of chondroitin by converting PAP (an endproduct of the sulfation process) to 5'-AMP. PAP is a known inhibitor of SULTs. IMPAD1 is a 356 amino acid (aa) type II transmembrane Golgi-embedded glycoprotein. It contains a short cytoplasmic tail (aa 1-12) and an extended luminal region (aa 34-356) that contains its catalytic domain (aa 60-347). Over aa 145-356, mouse IMPAD1 shares 99% and 93% aa sequence identity with rat and human IMPAD1, respectively.
