Glycerophosphoinositol 4,5-bisphosphate
1. Basic Product Information
Product Name: Glycerophosphoinositol 4,5-bisphosphate
CAS Number: 94161-15-6
Molecular Formula: C9H21O17P3
Molecular Weight: 494.17
Synonyms: GroPI(4,5)P2, GPIP2, myo-Inositol,4,5-bis(dihydrogen phosphate) 1-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl hydrogen phosphate)
Product Category: Biochemical signal transduction substrate, cell biology research reagent, phosphoinositide standard, enzyme research substrate, lipid signaling experimental raw material
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Indicators
- Appearance: White off-white amorphous powder
- Odor: Odorless
- Solubility: Freely soluble in water; slightly soluble in methanol; insoluble in ethanol, chloroform, ether and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents
- Melting Point: Decomposes gradually above 120 °C without fixed melting point
- Density (20 °C): 1.52 g/cm3
- Hygroscopicity: Strongly hygroscopic under high humidity air
- Aqueous Stability: Unstable in aqueous solution; easy to dephosphorylate and isomerize under UV irradiation, high temperature or alkaline environment
Chemical Characteristics
- Molecular Structure: Glycerol-inositol fused trisphosphate heterocyclic compound, glycerol backbone linked to myo-inositol ring via phosphate ester bonds, with two additional phosphate groups at C4 and C5 positions of inositol ring
- Core Functional Mechanism: Water-soluble phosphoinositide analog without fatty acid chains; intracellular calcium signal regulation substrate, slow degradation analog of IP3; specifically binds PH domain protein to regulate cytoskeleton, ion channel and membrane transport functions
- Photostability: Extremely light-sensitive; UV and visible light trigger phosphate group shedding and ring isomerization, reducing biological activity
- Thermal Stability: Stable below 60 °C; heating above 90 °C accelerates dephosphorylation decomposition to generate free phosphate and inositol fragments
- Chemical Compatibility: Compatible with neutral biological buffer, water-based cell culture medium; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong alkalis and heavy metal ions
3. Main Application Fields
