Glucose from inositol phospholipid

In plants, inositol is biosynthesized from glucose 1-phosphate via inosose 1-phosphate, which is reduced into ID-inositol 3-phosphate (INOl pathway). After dephosphorylation by inositol phosphate monophosphatase, myo-inositol is fed into biosynthesis of inositol phospholipids via a Kennedy-like sequence. In mammalian organisms, inositol is acquired from the diet and is also biosynthesized via INOl. The latter pathway, rather than the inositol phosphate phosphatase, seems to be a more promising target of antipsychotic drugs (17, 18) (see Fig. 2).
