Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP<sub>2</sub>) is a phospholipid that covers a small percentage of the cell membrane. Interaction with [[Phospholipase C|phospholipase C]] results in the production of [[Inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate|inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate]] (IP<sub>3</sub>) and [[Diacylglycerol|diacylglycerol]] (DAG). This interaction is part of the [[Phosphoinositide pathway|phosphoinositide pathway]]. |

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is a phospholipid that covers a small percentage of the cell membrane. Interaction with phospholipase C results in the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). This interaction is part of the phosphoinositide pathway.
