Phosphoinositides are localized in various intracellular compartments and can regulate a number of intracellular functions, such as cytoskeletal dynamics and membrane trafficking. Phospholipase Ds (PLDs) are regulated enzymes that hydrolyse phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) to generate the putative second messenger phosphatidic acid (PtdOH). In vitro, PLDs have an absolute requirement for higher phosphorylated inositides, such as phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)]. Whether this lipid is able to regulate the activity of PLD in vivo is contentious. To examine this hypothesis we studied the relationship between PLD and an enzyme critical for the intracellular synthesis of PtdIns(4,5)P(2): phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase alpha (Type Ialpha PIPkinase). We find that both PLD1 and PLD2 interact with the Type Ialpha PIPkinase and that PLD2 activity in vivo can be regulated solely by the expression of this lipid kinase. Moreover, PLD2 is able to recruit the Type Ialpha PIPkinase to its intracellular location. We show that the physiological requirement of PLD enzymes for PtdIns(4,5)P(2) is critical and that PLD2 activity can be regulated solely by the levels of this key intracellular lipid.  相似文献

The regulation of the synthesis of PtdIns(4,5)P2 is emerging as being as complex as we might expect from the multi-functional nature of this lipid. In the present chapter we focus on one aspect of inositide metabolism, which is the functions of the Type II PIPkins (Type II PtdInsP kinases). These are primarily PtdIns5P 4-kinases, although in vitro they will also phosphorylate PtdIns3P to PtdIns(3,4)P2. Thus they have three, not necessarily exclusive, functions: to make PtdIns(4,5)P2 by a quantitatively minor route, to remove PtdIns5P and to make PtdIns(3,4)P2 by a route that does not involve a Class I PtdIns 3-kinase. None of these three possible functions has yet been unambiguously proven or ruled out. Of the three isoforms, alpha and beta are widely expressed, the IIalpha being predominantly cytosolic and the IIbeta primarily nuclear. PIPkin IIgamma has a much more restricted tissue expression pattern, and appears to be localized primarily to intracellular vesicles. Here we introduce in turn each of the three Type II PIPkins, and discuss what we know about their localization, their regulation and their function.  相似文献

The delta family phosphoinositide (PI)-specific phospholipase C (PLC) are most fundamental forms of eukaryotic PI-PLCs. Despite the presence of lipid targeting domains such as the PH domain and C2 domain, the isoforms are also found in the cytoplasm and nucleus as well as at the plasma membrane. The isoforms have sequences or regions that can serve as a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and a nuclear export signal (NES). Their intracellular localization differs from one isoform to another, presumably due to the difference in the transport equilibrium balanced by the strength of the two signals of each isoform. Even for a particular isoform, its intracellular localization seems to vary during the cell cycle. As an example, PLCdelta(1), which is generally found at the plasma membrane and in the cytoplasm of quiescent cells, localizes to discrete nuclear structures in the G(1)/S boundary of the cell cycle. This may be at least partly due to an increase in intracellular Ca(2+), since Ca(2+) facilitates the formation of a nuclear transport complex comprised of PLCdelta(1) and importin beta1, a carrier molecule for the nuclear import. PLCdelta(1) as well as PLCdelta(4) may play a pivotal role in controlling the initiation of DNA synthesis in S phase. Spatio-temporal changes in the levels of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) seem to be another major determinant for the localization and regulation of the delta isoforms. High nuclear PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels are associated with the G(1)/S phases. After entering M phase, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis at sites of cell division occurs and PLCs seem to localize to the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis. Coordinated translocation of PLCs with the cell cycle or with stress responses may result in changes in intra-nuclear environments and local membrane architectures that modulate proliferation and differentiation. In this review, recent findings regarding the molecular machineries and mechanisms of the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling as well as roles in the cell cycle progression of the delta isoforms of PLC will be discussed.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)] is a key second messenger found ubiquitously in higher eukaryotic cells. The activation of Class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases and the subsequent production of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) is an important cell signaling event that has been causally linked to the activation of a variety of downstream cellular processes, such as cell migration and proliferation. Although numerous proteins regulating a variety of biological pathways have been shown to bind PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), there are no data to demonstrate multiple mechanisms for PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis in vivo. RESULTS: In this study, we demonstrate an alternative pathway for the in vivo production of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) mediated by the action of murine Type Ialpha phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (Type Ialpha PIPkinase), an enzyme best characterized as regulating cellular PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels. Analysis of this novel pathway of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis in cellular membranes leads us to conclude that in vivo, Type Ialpha PIPkinase also acts as a PtdIns(3,4)P(2) 5-kinase. We demonstrate for the first time that cells actually contain an endogenous PtdIns(3,4)P(2) 5-kinase, and that during oxidative stress, this enzyme is responsible for PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis. Furthermore, we demonstrate that by upregulating the H(2)O(2)-induced PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) levels using overexpression studies, the endogenous PtdIns(3,4)P(2) 5-kinase is likely to be Type Ialpha PIPkinase. CONCLUSIONS: We describe for the first time a novel in vivo activity for Type Ialpha PIPkinase, and a novel pathway for the in vivo synthesis of functional PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), a key lipid second messenger regulating a number of diverse cellular processes.  相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) synthesis has been implicated in maintaining the function of the Golgi apparatus. Here we demonstrate that the inhibition of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis in vitro in response to primary alcohol treatment and the kinetics of Golgi fragmentation in vivo were very rapid and tightly coupled. Preloading Golgi membranes with short chain phosphatidic acid abrogated the alcohol-mediated inhibition of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis in vitro. We also show that fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus in response to diminished PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis correlated with both the phosphorylation of a Golgi form of beta III spectrin, a PtdIns(4,5)P(2)-interacting protein, and changes in its intracellular redistribution. The data are consistent with a model suggesting that the decreased PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis and the phosphorylation state of beta III spectrin modulate the structural integrity of the Golgi apparatus.  相似文献

D-3 phosphorylated inositides are a peculiar class of lipids, synthesized by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PtdIns 3-K), which are also present in the nucleus. In order to clarify a possible role for nuclear D-3 phosphorylated inositides during human erythroid differentiation, we have examined the issue of whether or not, in K562 human erythroleukemia cells, erythropoietin (EPO) may generate nuclear translocation of an active PtdIns 3-K. Immunoprecipitation with an anti-p85 regulatory subunit of PtdIns 3-K, revealed that both the intranuclear amount and the activity of the kinase increased rapidly and transiently in response to EPO. Enzyme translocation was blocked by the specific PtdIns 3-K pharmacological inhibitor, LY294002, which also inhibited erythroid differentiation. In vivo, intranuclear synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5) trisphosphate (PtdIns (3,4,5)P(3)) was stimulated by EPO. Almost all PtdIns 3-K that translocated to the nucleus was highly phosphorylated on tyrosine residues of the p85 regulatory subunit. These findings strongly suggest that an important step in the signaling pathways that mediate EPO-induced erythroid differentiation may be represented by the intranuclear translocation of an active PtdIns 3-K.  相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P(2)) is widespread in eukaryotic cells. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, PtdIns(3,5)P(2) synthesis is catalyzed by the PtdIns3P 5-kinase Fab1p, and loss of this activity results in vacuolar morphological defects, indicating that PtdIns(3,5)P(2) is essential for vacuole homeostasis. We have therefore suggested that all Fab1p homologues may be PtdIns3P 5-kinases involved in membrane trafficking. It is unclear which phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinases (PIPkins) are responsible for PtdIns(3,5)P(2) synthesis in higher eukaryotes. To clarify how PtdIns(3,5)P(2) is synthesized in mammalian and other cells, we determined whether yeast and mammalian Fab1p homologues or mammalian Type I PIPkins (PtdIns4P 5-kinases) make PtdIns(3,5)P(2) in vivo. The recently cloned murine (p235) and Schizosaccharomyces pombe FAB1 homologues both restored basal PtdIns(3,5)P(2) synthesis in Deltafab1 cells and made PtdIns(3,5)P(2) in vitro. Only p235 corrected the growth and vacuolar defects of fab1 S. cerevisiae. A mammalian Type I PIPkin supported no PtdIns(3,5)P(2) synthesis. Thus, FAB1 and its homologues constitute a distinct class of Type III PIPkins dedicated to PtdIns(3,5)P(2) synthesis. The differential abilities of p235 and of SpFab1p to complement the phenotypic defects of Deltafab1 cells suggests that interaction(s) with other protein factors may be important for spatial and/or temporal regulation of PtdIns(3,5)P(2) synthesis. These results also suggest that p235 may regulate a step in membrane trafficking in mammalian cells that is analogous to its function in yeast.  相似文献

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is facilitated by a precisely regulated burst of actin assembly. PtdIns(4,5)P2 is an important signaling lipid with conserved roles in CME and actin assembly regulation. Rhomboid family multipass transmembrane proteins regulate diverse cellular processes; however, rhomboid-mediated CME regulation has not been described. We report that yeast lacking the rhomboid protein Rbd2 exhibit accelerated endocytic-site dynamics and premature actin assembly during CME through a PtdIns(4,5)P2-dependent mechanism. Combined genetic and biochemical studies showed that the cytoplasmic tail of Rbd2 binds directly to PtdIns(4,5)P2 and is sufficient for Rbd2''s role in actin regulation. Analysis of an Rbd2 mutant with diminished PtdIns(4,5)P2-binding capacity indicates that this interaction is necessary for the temporal regulation of actin assembly during CME. The cytoplasmic tail of Rbd2 appears to modulate PtdIns(4,5)P2 distribution on the cell cortex. The syndapin-like F-BAR protein Bzz1 functions in a pathway with Rbd2 to control the timing of type 1 myosin recruitment and actin polymerization onset during CME. This work reveals that the previously unstudied rhomboid protein Rbd2 functions in vivo at the nexus of three highly conserved processes: lipid regulation, endocytic regulation, and cytoskeletal function.  相似文献

The activity of nuclear phosphoinositide 3-kinase C2beta (PI3K-C2beta) was investigated in HL-60 cells blocked by aphidicolin at G(1)/S boundary and allowed to progress synchronously through the cell cycle. The activity of immunoprecipitated PI3K-C2beta in the nuclei and nuclear envelopes showed peak activity at 8 h after release from the G(1)/S block, which correlates with G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle. In the nuclei and nuclear envelopes isolated from HL-60 cells at 8 h after release from G(1)/S block, a significant increase in the level of incorporation of radiolabeled phosphate into phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) was observed with no change in the level of radiolabeled PtdIns(4)P, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3). On Western blots, PI3K-C2beta revealed a single immunoreactive band of 180 kDa, whereas in the nuclei and nuclear envelopes isolated at 8 h after release, the gel shift of 18 kDa was observed. When nuclear envelopes were treated for 20 min with mu-calpain in vitro, the similar gel shift and increase in PI3K-C2beta activity was observed which was completely inhibited by pretreatment with calpain inhibitor calpeptin. The presence of PI3K inhibitor LY 294002 completely abolished the calpain-mediated increase in the activity of PI3K-C2beta but did not prevent the gel shift. When HL-60 cells were released from G(1)/S block in the presence of either calpeptin or LY 294002, the activation of nuclear PI3K-C2beta was completely inhibited. These results demonstrate the calpain-mediated activation of the nuclear PI3K-C2beta during G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle in HL-60 cells.  相似文献

Movin' on up: the role of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in cell migration   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
Cell migration requires the coordination of many biochemical events, including cell-matrix contact turnover and cytoskeletal restructuring. Recent advances further implicate phosphatidylinositol(4,5)-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)] in the control of these events. Many proteins that are crucial to the assembly of the migration machinery are regulated by PtdIns(4,5)P(2). Coordinated synthesis of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) at these sites is dependent on the precise targeting of the type I phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinases (PIPKs). Two PIPKI isoforms target to, and generate, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) at membrane ruffles and focal adhesions during cell migration. Here, we discuss our current understanding of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in the regulation of cell responses to migratory stimuli and how the migrating cell controls PtdIns(4,5)P(2) availability.  相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 4,5-bisphosphate is involved in many aspects of membrane traffic, but the regulation of its synthesis is only partially understood. Golgi membranes contain PI 4-kinase activity and a pool of phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP), which is further increased by ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1). COS7 cells were transfected with alpha and beta forms of PI 4-kinase, and only membranes from COS7 cells transfected with PI 4-kinase beta increased their content of PIP when incubated with ARF1. PtdIns(4, 5)P(2) content in Golgi membranes was nonexistent but could be increased to a small extent upon adding either cytosol or Type I or Type II PIP kinases. However, when ARF1 was present, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels increased dramatically when membranes were incubated in the presence of cytosol or Type I, but not Type II, PIP kinase. To examine whether ARF1 could directly activate Type I PIP 5-kinase, we used an in vitro assay consisting of phosphatidycholine-containing liposomes, ARF1, and PIP 5-kinase. ARF1 increased Type I PIP 5-kinase activity in a guanine nucleotide-dependent manner, identifying this enzyme as a direct effector for ARF1.  相似文献

Syndecan-4 is a transmembrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan that can regulate cell-matrix interactions and is enriched in focal adhesions. Its cytoplasmic domain contains a central region unlike that of any other vertebrate or invertebrate syndecan core protein with a cationic motif that binds inositol phospholipids. In turn, lipid binding stabilizes the syndecan in oligomeric form, with subsequent binding and activation of protein kinase C. The specificity of phospholipid binding and its potential regulation are investigated here. Highest affinity of the syndecan-4 cytoplasmic domain was seen with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5P)(2)) and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, and both promoted syndecan-4 oligomerization. Affinity was much reduced for 3-phosphorylated inositides while no binding of diacylglycerol was detected. Syndecan-2 cytoplasmic domain had negligible affinity for any lipid examined. Inositol hexakisphosphate, but not inositol tetrakisphosphate, also had high affinity for the syndecan-4 cytoplasmic domain and could compete effectively with PtdIns(4,5)P(2). Since inositol hexaphosphate binding to syndecan-4 does not promote oligomer formation, it is a potential down-regulator of syndecan-4 signaling. Similarly, phosphorylation of serine 183 in syndecan-4 cytoplasmic domain reduced PtdIns(4,5)P(2) binding affinity by over 100-fold, although interaction could still be detected by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Only protein kinase Calpha was up-regulated in activity by the combination of syndecan-4 and PtdIns(4,5)P(2), with all other isoforms tested showing minimal response. This is consistent with the codistribution of syndecan-4 with the alpha isoform of protein kinase C in focal adhesions.  相似文献

D-type cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdk4 and Cdk6) regulate the G1 to S phase progression of the mammalian cell cycle. It has been suggested that Cdk4 and Cdk6 may have distinct functions in vivo, even though they are indistinguishable biochemically. Here we show that although these Cdks phosphorylate multiple residues in pRB, they do so with different residue selectivities in vitro; Thr821 and Thr826 are preferentially phosphorylated by Cdk6 and Cdk4, respectively. This raises the possibility different substrate specificities lead to their different roles in the regulation of cellular events. Furthermore, our results indicate the new concept that Cdk itself contributes to substrate recognition.  相似文献

Phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma protein (pRB) is assumed to regulate its growth-controlling function. Moreover, hypophosphorylated and hyperphosphorylated forms of pRB can be distinguished by virtue of the distinct affinities with which they bind to the cell nucleus. This property allows the identification of individual cell nuclei that contain pRB in one or the other form. We show here that after cells emerge from a quiescent (G0) state, conversion of their complement of pRB into a hyperphosphorylated form occurs in late G1, preceding entry into S phase by several hours. Thus, contrary to earlier reports, pRB phosphorylation is not co-ordinated with the G1-S transition and may not directly regulate it. A distinct set of phosphopeptides is found exclusively in those forms of pRB that show the loose nuclear association characteristic of the hyperphosphorylated form of pRB. Another set of phosphopeptides is found with both hypophosphorylated and hyperphosphorylated forms. This suggests the existence of distinct patterns of phosphorylation that are associated with different subsets of pRB molecules. We conclude that substantial phosphorylation of pRB exists in G1 even prior to the hyperphosphorylation point. Cyclin-dependent kinases can cause a liberation of pRB from cell nuclei in vitro. Phosphorylation by members of this kinase family is therefore likely to be directly involved in the change in nuclear affinity in vivo and the associated changes in pRB functioning.  相似文献

Polyphosphoinositide-specific phospholipases (PICs) of the delta-subfamily are ubiquitous in eukaryotes, but an inability to control these enzymes physiologically has been a major obstacle to understanding their cellular function(s). Plc1p is similar to metazoan delta-PICs and is the only PIC in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Genetic studies have implicated Plc1p in several cell functions, both nuclear and cytoplasmic. Here we show that a brief hypo-osmotic episode provokes rapid Plc1p-catalyzed hydrolysis of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in intact yeast by a mechanism independent of extracellular Ca2+. Much of this PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis occurs at the plasma membrane. The hydrolyzed PtdIns(4,5)P2 is mainly derived from PtdIns4P made by the PtdIns 4-kinase Stt4p. PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis occurs normally in mutants lacking Arg82p or Ipk1p, but they accumulate no InsP6, showing that these enzymes normally convert the liberated Ins(1,4,5)P3 rapidly and quantitatively to InsP6. We conclude that hypo-osmotic stress activates Plc1p-catalyzed PtdIns(4,5)P2 at the yeast plasma membrane and the liberated Ins(1,4,5)P3 is speedily converted to InsP6. This ability routinely to activate Plc1p-catalyzed PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis in vivo opens up new opportunities for molecular and genetic scrutiny of the regulation and functions of phosphoinositidases C of the delta-subfamily.  相似文献
