Background: Inositol Monophosphatase 3/IMPAD1

Sulfur metabolism is critical for multicellular organism development (1). Sulfur is activated in vivo to form the sulfur donor, 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) (2), and then transferred to acceptor molecules, such as glycosaminoglycans (3), steroids and xenobiotics (4). Following transfer, PAPS is converted to 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphate (PAP). PAP causes inhibition of many sulfotransferases and is therefore cytotoxic (5). IMPAD1 is a recently discovered PAP-specific phosphatase that removes the 3'-phosphate from PAP to form non-toxic AMP (6), which can subsequently be recycled by cells. The enzyme is localized in the Golgi apparatus where glycosaminoglycan synthesis occurs. Mouse IMPAD1 exhibits 91% sequence identity with the human homologue. R&D Systems has found that commercial preparations of PAP may contain trace lithium salts, which is a potent micromolar-level inhibitor of IMPAD1 (6).
