BODIPY TMR PI(4)P (BODIPY TMR Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate) is a water soluble analog of PI(4)P labeled with the orange fluorophore, Bodipy®-TMR, at the sn-1 position.
Phosphoinositides (PIPns) are minor components of cellular membranes but are integral signaling molecules for cellular communication. Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI(4)P) is the biosynthetic precursor to PI(4,5)P2 and has an important roles in regulating sphingomyelin and glycosphingolipid metabolism and membrane trafficking at the exit of the Golgi complex.
