PI 3, 5-bisphosphate is a most recently discovered PIP 2 isomer, produced via phosphorylation of PI 3-phosphate by PIP kinases. To understand the physiological function of PI 3,5-bisphosphate in adult mice, we recently generated a knockout mouse strain. Deletion of this molecule causes an excessive vacuolation in brain and a premature death. Our results indicate that this molecule is essential for central nervous system.
