The IMPA1 gene product is responsible for the final step of biotransformation of inositol triphosphate and diacylglycerol, two second messengers. Despite its many physiological functions, no clinical phenotype has been assigned to this gene dysfunction to date. Additionally, IMPA1 is the main target of lithium, a drug that is at the forefront of treatment for bipolar disorder.
A DNA sequence encoding the human IMPA1 (P29218-1) (Met1-Asp277) was expressed with a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.
