✦ Synopsis


Previous reports have suggested the existence of at least two pools of cellular myo-inositol (Ins); it has been further hypothesized that only one of these pools is utilized during hormone-activated, cyclic phosphatidylinositol (Ptdlns) resynthesis. In an effort to investigate this possibility, we have undertaken kinetic studies of Ins metabolism in WRK-1 cells. Our results indicate that a single pool of Ins is involved in both basal and activated Ptdlns synthesis. Ins generated by the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol4,5-bisphosphate (PtdlnsP2) mixes with the existing pool of free Ins and is not used exclusively for resynthesis of Ptdlns. e 1995 WiIey-Liss, ~n c . *
