ISYNA1 Products

ISYNA1 is a gene that codes for a protein which is a key enzyme in the myo-inositol biosynthesis pathway which works to convert a glucose 6-phosphate into a 1-myo-inositol 1-phosphate, as well as a rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of all compounds containing inositol, and is highly expressed in the testis, ovary, heart, placenta, and pancreas. ISYNA1 has three isoforms with lengths of 558, 430, and 504 amino acids and weights of approximately 61, 47, and 55 kDa respectively. Current studies are being done on several diseases and disorders relating to this gene including synostosis, Whipple disease, cerebral palsy, osteonecrosis, bipolar disorder, candidiasis, cerebtitis, osteoarthritis, and malaria. ISYNA1 has also been shown to have interactions with NME2, PPP2CA, RPS15A, CAP2, and EEF2 in pathways such as inositol phosphate metabolism pathways.
