We have prepared the [ 35 S] thiophosphate labelled inositol trisphosphate and [ 32 P]phosphate labelled inositol trisphosphate (IP 3 ) from human erythrocytes. These compounds were used as substrates for the inositol trisphosphate 5‐phosphomonoesterase assay in human erythrocyte membranes. During 60 min incubation with the enzyme, the 35 S‐labelled IP 3 was not hydrolyzed, meanwhile the 32 P‐labelled IP 3 was broken down to 19.8 ± 2.4 %. This suggests that due to the presence of thiophosphate in the molecule the 35 S‐labelled IP 3 cannot serve as substrate for inositol trisphosphate 5‐phosphomonoesterase. The [ 35 S] thiophosphorylated derivative thus represents a nonhydrolyzable analogue of IP 3 and could be used in the study of its second messenger role.
