General description
Although PI(4,5)P2 is a minor component of cell membranes, it plays a critical role as a substrate for a number of important signaling proteins. PI(4,5)P2 is an intermediate in the IP3/DAG pathway where it is hydrolyzed by phospholipase C to liberate the second messengers, inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). PI(4,5)P2 is also a substrate for PI 3-kinase where it is phosphorylated to PI(3,4,5)P3, an activator of downstream signaling components such as the protein kinase AKT.
Application
TopFluor™ PI(4,5)P2 or 1-oleoyl-2-{6-[4-(dipyrrometheneboron difluoride)butanoyl]amino}hexanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (ammonium salt) has been used as a fluorescent lipid in living cells to analyse the cellular localization of phosphatidylinositol (PI) and in the preparation of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) for the ezrin-membrane tethering assays.

Phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) lipids are critical to many cell signaling pathways, in part by acting as molecular beacons that recruit peripheral membrane proteins to specific locations within the plasma membrane. Understanding the biophysics of PIP-protein interactions is critical to developing

Although the evidence for the presence of functionally important nanosized phosphorylated phosphoinositide (PIP)-rich domains within cellular membranes has accumulated, very limited information is available regarding the structural determinants for compartmentalization of these phospholipids. Here, we used a combination of fluorescence
