  2. Phosphatidylinositol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphatidylinositol

    The significance of phosphatidylinositol (PI) metabolism lies in its role as a potential transducing mechanism, evident from studies showing hormone and neurotransmitter-induced hydrolysis of PI. The hydrolysis starts with the enzyme PI 4-kinase alpha ( PI4Kα ) converting PI into PI 4-phosphate ( PI4P ), which is then converted into PI (4,5 ...

    Parts-per-million cube of relative abundance by mass of elements in an average adult human body down to 1 ppm. About 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium ...

    The number π (/ p aɪ /; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.It appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics, and some of these formulae are commonly used for defining π, to avoid relying on the definition of the length of a curve.

    In addition, DAG is also converted into CDP-DAG, which is a precursor for phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphoinositides (PIP, PIP 2, PIP 3). [11] PA concentrations are maintained at extremely low levels in the cell by the activity of potent LPPs. [6]

  8. P-bodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-bodies

    Specifically, it is unknown whether there is a context dependent (stress state versus normal) specificity to the P-body's mechanism of action. Based on the evidence that P-bodies sometimes are the site of mRNA decay and sometimes the mRNA can exit the P-bodies and re-initiate translation, the question remains of what controls this switch.

    It was a long and nonsensical monologue about a swimming pool that essentially equated to a three-minute speech, and “it did involve her learning like 50 or 60 digits of Pi,” Weiss said.
