Fig. 8From: Inducible intracellular membranes: molecular aspects and emerging applicationsInositol dependent phospholipid sensor. When PA levels are high (i.e. low inositol concentration), Opi1 interacts with Scsp2 and is sequestrated in the ER membrane (left) and INO1 and other inositol-sensitive genes are expressed. When the PA levels drops down, Opi1 detaches from Scsp2 and migrates to the nucleus where it represses the expression of inositol-sensitive genes (right)Back to article page
