A protein pair with PIPs inside.

چکیده
Oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) and many of its homologs transfer sterol in vitro, but in vivo, they are not major sterol transporters. In this issue of Structure, Tong and colleagues find that the yeast OSBP homolog, Osh3, binds PI(4)P but not sterol, supporting the view that PI(4)P regulation, not sterol transport, is the key activity for OSBP homologs.

PIPs: human protein–protein interaction prediction database
The PIPs database (http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/www-pips) is a resource for studying protein-protein interactions in human. It contains predictions of >37,000 high probability interactions of which >34,000 are not reported in the interaction databases HPRD, BIND, DIP or OPHID. The interactions in PIPs were calculated by a Bayesian method that combines information from expression, orthology, ...

متن کاملLipid Signalling: Picking Out The PIPs
Many physiological targets have been suggested for polyphosphoinositol lipids, but two out of the three monophosphorylated PIPs appeared to be no more than metabolic precursors. Recent work has shown that they also have distinct binding proteins and functions.
