Abstract

Myoinositol trisphosphate, particularly Ins(l,4,5)P3 is the intracellular messenger that mediates the effects of many cell surface receptors on the intracellular Ca2+ stores (Berridge and Irvine 1989). Although specific assays have identified high affinity Ins(l,4,5)P3-binding sites in many animal tissues (Supattapone et al 1988, Mignery and Sudhof 1990), these have not been convincingly shown in all cases to be the receptors that mediate Ca2+ mobilization, nor it is clear whether the binding sites are different from one tissue to another. Myoinositol trisphosphate receptor from plants has also been reported and characterized (Biswas et al 1995).
