Target Species
Human
Target Name
IMPA1
Target Full Name
Inositol monophosphatase 1
Target Function
Responsible for the provision of inositol required for synthesis of phosphatidylinositol and polyphosphoinositides and has been implicated as the pharmacological target for lithium action in brain. Has broad substrate specificity and can use myo-inositol monophosphates, myo-inositol 1,3-diphosphate, myo-inositol 1,4-diphosphate, scyllo-inositol-phosphate, D-galactose 1-phosphate, glucose-1-phosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-1-phosphate, beta-glycerophosphate, and 2'-AMP as substrates.
Target Involvement
Mental retardation, autosomal recessive 59 (MRT59)
Target Subcellular Location
Cytoplasm.
Target Protein Families
Inositol monophosphatase superfamily
Target Synonyms
IMP 1; IMP; IMPA 1; IMPA; IMPA1; IMPA1_HUMAN; IMPase 1; IMPase; Inositol 1(or 4) monophosphatase; Inositol monophosphatase 1; Inositol monophosphatase; Inositol(myo) 1(or 4) monophosphatase 1; Inositol-1(or 4)-monophosphatase 1; Lithium sensitive myo inositol monophosphatase A1; Lithium-sensitive myo-inositol monophosphatase A1
Target Background
This gene encodes an enzyme that dephosphorylates myo-inositol monophosphate to generate free myo-inositol, a precursor of phosphatidylinositol, and is therefore an important modulator of intracellular signal transduction via the production of the second messengers myoinositol 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. This enzyme can also use myo-inositol-1, 3-diphosphate, myo-inositol-1, 4-diphosphate, scyllo-inositol-phosphate, glucose-1-phosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-1-phosphate, beta-glycerophosphate, and 2'-AMP as substrates. This enzyme shows magnesium-dependent phosphatase activity and is inhibited by therapeutic concentrations of lithium. Inhibition of inositol monophosphate hydroylosis and subsequent depletion of inositol for phosphatidylinositol synthesis may explain the anti-manic and anti-depressive effects of lithium administered to treat bipolar disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. A pseudogene of this gene is also present on chromosome 8q21.13.
