Posters and lectures presented at the Seventh International Conference on Bioinorganic
Chemistry (ICBIC) in Lubeck, Germany, last year was divided into 16 sections, including …

Metabolic and signaling biochemical pathways have numerous steps that involve the
hydrolytic cleavage of peptide or phosphate ester bonds. Although both types of bonds are …

Cells respond to salt stress by osmolyte synthesis and by increase of K+ uptake and Na+
efflux at the plasma membrane and of Na+ accumulation at the vacuole. This cellular level of …

Numerous studies, both in enzymatic and nonenzymatic catalysis, have been undertaken to
understand the way by which metal ions, especially zinc ions, promote the hydrolysis of …

This Handbook on Metalloproteins focuses on the available structural information of proteins
and their metal ion coordination spheres. It centers on the metal ions indispensable for life …

Inositol, a simple six-carbon sugar, forms the basis of a number of important intracellular
signaling molecules. Over the last 35 years, a series of biochemical and cell biological …

Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease,
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, prion diseases and polyglutamine disorders, including …

Serotonin (5-HT), one of the evolutionary oldest central neurotransmitters, regulates the
most extensive modulatory behavioral system in the brain of vertebrates. 5-HT projections …

We previously identified the lpa1 (low phytic acid) 280‐10 line that carries a mutation
conferring a 90% reduction in phytic acid (InsP6) content. In contrast to other lpa mutants …

Phospholipase C β (PLC-β)-coupled G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activities
traditionally are assessed by measuring Ca2+ triggered by d-myo-inositol 1, 4, 5 …
