Comment typeDescription
Catalytic Activity2 ATP + 1D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate = 2 ADP + 1D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate.
FunctionInositol phosphate kinase with a broad substrate specificity. Has a preference for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and inositol 1,3,4,6-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,6)P4). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12027805, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12223481}.
SimilarityBelongs to the inositol phosphokinase (IPK) family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationNucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12027805}.
Tissue SpecificityUbiquitous, with the highest expression in skeletal muscle, liver, placenta, lung, peripheral blood leukocytes, kidney, spleen and colon. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12223481}.
