Type II inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases (5PTases) in yeast and animals have been known to regulate the level of phosphoinositides and thereby influence various cellular activities, such as vesicle trafficking and actin organization. In plants, little is known about the phosphatases involved in hydrolysis of phosphoinositides, and roles of type II 5PTases in plant cellular functions have not yet been characterized. In this study, we demonstrate that the FRAGILE FIBER3 (FRA3) gene of Arabidopsis thaliana, which encodes a type II 5PTase, plays an essential role in the secondary wall synthesis in fiber cells and xylem vessels. The fra3 mutations caused a dramatic reduction in secondary wall thickness and a concomitant decrease in stem strength. These phenotypes were associated with an alteration in actin organization in fiber cells. Consistent with the defective fiber and vessel phenotypes, the FRA3 gene was found to be highly expressed in fiber cells and vascular tissues in stems. The FRA3 protein is composed of two domains, an N-terminal localized WD-repeat domain and a C-terminal localized 5PTase catalytic domain. In vitro activity assay demonstrated that recombinant FRA3 exhibited phosphatase activity toward PtdIns(4,5)P2, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, and Ins(1,4,5)P3, with the highest substrate affinity toward PtdIns(4,5)P2. The fra3 missense mutation, which caused an amino acid substitution in the conserved motif II of the 5PTase catalytic domain, completely abolished the FRA3 phosphatase activity. Moreover, the endogenous levels of PtdIns(4,5)2 and Ins(1,4,5)P3 were found to be elevated in fra3 stems. Together, our findings suggest that the FRA3 type II 5PTase is involved in phosphoinositide metabolism and influences secondary wall synthesis and actin organization.  相似文献

Signals can be perceived and amplified at the cell membrane by receptors coupled to the production of a variety of second messengers, including myoinositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P(3)]. The myoinositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases (5PTases; EC 3.1.3.56) comprise a large protein family that hydrolyzes 5-phosphates from a variety of myoinositol phosphate (InsP) and phosphoinositide phosphate (PtdInsP) substrates. Arabidopsis thaliana has 15 genes encoding 5PTases. Biochemical analyses of a subgroup of 5PTase enzymes suggest that these enzymes have both overlapping and unique substrate preferences. Ectopic expression of these genes in transgenic plants can reduce Ins(1,4,5)P(3) levels and alter abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. To further explore the function of 5PTases in signaling, we have identified and characterized T-DNA insertional mutants for 5PTase1 and 5PTase2 and produced a double mutant. When grown in the dark, the seeds from these mutants germinate faster than wild-type seeds and the mutant seedlings have longer hypocotyls than wild-type seedlings. Seeds from these mutant lines also demonstrate an increase in sensitivity to ABA. These changes in early seedling growth are accompanied by mass increases in Ins(1,4,5)P(3), but not by changes in endogenous ABA content. By labeling the endogenous myoinositol pool in 5ptase1 and 5ptase2 mutants, we detected increases in Ins(1,4,5)P(3) and a decrease in PtdIns, PtdIns(4)P, and phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate. Taken together, these data indicate that the At5PTase1 and At5PTase2 genes have nonredundant roles in hydrolyzing inositol second-messenger substrates and that regulation of Ins(1,4,5)P(3) levels is important during germination and early seedling development.  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

The binding of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] to bovine liver microsomes was characterized. The Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor of the microsomes was solubilized by 1% Triton X-100 and purified by sucrose density gradient, Heparin-Sepharose, DEAE-Toyopearl, ATP-Agarose, and Ins(1,4,5)P3-Sepharose column chromatographies. More than 1,000-fold enrichment of the Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding activity was achieved. Kd values of the binding activity were 2.8 nM in microsomes and 3.0 nM in the partially purified receptor, respectively, and the binding activity was optimal in the medium containing 100 mM KCl and at pH between 7.5 and 8.5. The presence of Ca2+ failed to inhibit the binding. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), and phosphatidylinositol-4-monophosphate [PtdIns(4)P] showed no effect on the Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding. However, soybean phospholipids asolectin and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] strongly inhibited the binding activity. PtdIns(4,5)P2 inhibited the activity competitively with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration of 30 micrograms/ml. The partially purified Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor was reconstituted into proteoliposomes. Fluorescence measurements using Quin 2 indicated that Ins(1,4,5)P3 stimulated Ca2+ influx into the proteoliposomes. The EC50 of Ins(1,4,5)P3 on Ca2+ influx was 50 nM. This result strongly suggest that Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding protein of liver microsomes acts as a physiological Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor/Ca2+ channel.  相似文献

Phosphoinositides direct membrane trafficking, facilitating the recruitment of effectors to specific membranes. In yeast phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) isproposed to regulate vacuolar fusion; however, in intact cells this phosphoinositide can only be detected at the plasma membrane. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae the 5-phosphatase, Inp54p, dephosphorylates PtdIns(4,5)P2 forming PtdIns(4)P, a substrate for the phosphatase Sac1p, which hydrolyzes (PtdIns(4)P). We investigated the role these phosphatases in regulating PtdIns(4,5)P2 subcellular distribution. PtdIns(4,5)P2 bioprobes exhibited loss of plasma membrane localization and instead labeled a subset of fragmented vacuoles in Deltasac1 Deltainp54 and sac1ts Deltainp54 mutants. Furthermore, sac1ts Deltainp54 mutants exhibited vacuolar fusion defects, which were rescued by latrunculin A treatment, or by inactivation of Mss4p, a PtdIns(4)P 5-kinase that synthesizes plasma membrane PtdIns(4,5)P2. Under these conditions PtdIns(4,5)P2 was not detected on vacuole membranes, and vacuole morphology was normal, indicating vacuolar PtdIns(4,5)P2 derives from Mss4p-generated plasma membrane PtdIns(4,5)P2. Deltasac1 Deltainp54 mutants exhibited delayed carboxypeptidase Y sorting, cargo-selective secretion defects, and defects in vacuole function. These studies reveal PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis by lipid phosphatases governs its spatial distribution, and loss of phosphatase activity may result in PtdIns(4,5)P2 accumulation on vacuole membranes leading to vacuolar fragmentation/fusion defects.  相似文献

The agonist-dependent hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids was investigated by studying the breakdown of prelabelled lipid or by measuring the accumulation of inositol phosphates. Stimulation of insect salivary glands with 5-hydroxytryptamine for 6 min provoked a rapid disappearance of [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] and [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) but had no effect on the level of [3H]phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns). The breakdown of PtdIns(4,5)P2 was associated with a very rapid release of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3], which reached a peak 5 1/2 times that of the resting level after 5 s of stimulation. This high level was not maintained but declined to a lower level, perhaps reflecting the disappearance of PtdIns(4,5)P2. 5-Hydroxytryptamine also induced a rapid and massive accumulation of inositol 1,4-bisphosphate [Ins(1,4)P2]. The fact that these increases in Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,4)P2 precede in time any increase in the level of inositol 1-phosphate or inositol provides a clear indication that the primary action of 5-hydroxytryptamine is to stimulate the hydrolysis of PtdIns(4,5)P2 to yield diacylglycerol and Ins(1,4,5)P3. The latter is then hydrolysed by a series of phosphomonoesterases to produce Ins(1,4)P2, Ins1P and finally inositol. The very rapid agonist-dependent increases in Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,4)P2 suggests that they could function as second messengers, perhaps to control the release of calcium from internal pools. The PtdIns(4,5)P2 that is used by the receptor mechanism represents a small hormone-sensitive pool that must be constantly replenished by phosphorylation of PtdIns. Small changes in the size of this small energy-dependent pool of polyphosphoinositide will alter the effectiveness of the receptor mechanism and could account for phenomena such as desensitization and super-sensitivity.  相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P) regulates diverse cellular processes, such as actin cytoskeletal organization, Golgi trafficking and vacuolar biogenesis. Synthesis and turnover of PtdIns(4)P is mediated by a set of specific lipid kinases and phosphatases. Here we show that the polyphosphoinositide phosphatase Sac1p has a central role in compartment-specific regulation of PtdIns(4)P. We have found that sac1Delta mutants show pleiotropic, synthetically lethal interactions with mutations in genes required for vacuolar protein sorting (Vps). Disruption of the SAC1 gene also caused a defect in the late endocytic pathway. These trafficking phenotypes correlated with a dramatic accumulation of PtdIns(4)P at vacuolar membranes. In addition, sac1 mutants displayed elevated endoplasmic reticulum PtdIns(4)P. The accumulation of PtdIns(4)P at the endoplasmic reticulum and vacuole and the endocytic defect could be compensated by mutations in the PtdIns 4-kinase Stt4p. Our results indicate that elimination of Sac1p causes accumulation of a Stt4p-specific PtdIns(4)P pool at internal membranes which impairs late endocytic and vacuolar trafficking. We conclude that Sac1p functions in confining PtdIns(4)P-dependent processes to specific intracellular membranes.  相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)] is a key second messenger that regulates actin and membrane dynamics, as well as other cellular processes. Many of the effects of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) are mediated by binding to effector proteins that contain a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. Here, we identify two novel effectors of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae: the PH domain containing protein Slm1 and its homolog Slm2. Slm1 and Slm2 serve redundant roles essential for cell growth and actin cytoskeleton polarization. Slm1 and Slm2 bind PtdIns(4,5)P(2) through their PH domains. In addition, Slm1 and Slm2 physically interact with Avo2 and Bit61, two components of the TORC2 signaling complex, which mediates Tor2 signaling to the actin cytoskeleton. Together, these interactions coordinately regulate Slm1 targeting to the plasma membrane. Our results thus identify two novel effectors of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) regulating cell growth and actin organization and suggest that Slm1 and Slm2 integrate inputs from the PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and TORC2 to modulate polarized actin assembly and growth.  相似文献

The haemopoietic growth factors interleukin 3 (IL-3) and colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) stimulate the survival and proliferation of murine normal bone-marrow-derived macrophages. To establish whether these growth factors elicit their effects via the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] to form the second messengers inositol (1,4,5)trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] and diacylglycerol, macrophages were labelled with tracer quantities of [3H]inositol. Treatment of these cells with either IL-3 or CSF-1 did not alter the levels of PtdIns(4,5)P2 or Ins(1,4,5)P3. However, addition of the chemotactic peptide N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) which does not stimulate proliferation in macrophages caused a marked and rapid increase in the levels of Ins(1,4,5)P3, inositol bisphosphate and inositol monophosphate, and a decrease in the amount of PtdIns(4,5)P2. FMLP also evoked a rapid increase in intracellular cytosolic Ca2+ levels, as measured with quin 2 the Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent probe, whereas IL-3 and CSF-1 had no such effect. These results suggest that FMLP stimulates the hydrolysis of PtdIns(4,5)P2 to form the second messenger Ins(1,4,5)P3 which acts to increase the levels of cytosolic Ca2+, and that IL-3- and CSF-1-stimulated proliferation in macrophages is not associated with the formation of PtdIns(4,5)P2-derived second messengers.  相似文献

The phosphorylated derivatives of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), known as the polyphosphoinositides (PIs), represent key membrane-localized signals in the regulation of fundamental cell processes, such as membrane traffic and cytoskeleton remodelling. The reversible production of the PIs is catalyzed through the combined activities of a number of specific phosphoinositide phosphatases and kinases that can either act separately or in concert on all the possible combinations of the 3, 4, and 5 positions of the inositol ring. So far, seven distinct PI species have been identified in mammalian cells and named according to their site(s) of phosphorylation: PtdIns 3-phosphate (PI3P); PtdIns 4-phosphate (PI4P); PtdIns 5-phosphate (PI5P); PtdIns 3,4-bisphosphate (PI3,4P2); PtdIns 4,5-bisphosphate (PI4,5P2); PtdIns 3,5-bisphosphate (PI3,5P2); and PtdIns 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI3,4,5P3). Over the last decade, accumulating evidence has indicated that the different PIs serve not only as intermediates in the synthesis of the higher phosphorylated phosphoinositides, but also as regulators of different protein targets in their own right. These regulatory actions are mediated through the direct binding of their protein targets. In this way, the PIs can control the subcellular localization and activation of their various effectors, and thus execute a variety of cellular responses. To exert these functions, the metabolism of the PIs has to be finely regulated both in time and space, and this is achieved by controlling the subcellular distribution, regulation, and activation states of the enzymes involved in their synthesis and removal (kinases and phosphatases). These exist in many different isoforms, each of which appears to have a distinctive intracellular localization and regulation. As a consequence of this subcompartimentalized PI metabolism, a sort of "PI-fingerprint" of each cell membrane compartment is generated. When combined with the targeted recruitment of their protein effectors and the different intracellular distributions of other lipids and regulatory proteins (such as small GTPases), these factors can maintain and determine the identity of the cell organelles despite the extensive membrane flux []. Here, we provide an overview of the regulation and roles of different phosphoinositide kinases and phosphatases and their lipid products at the Golgi complex.  相似文献

Dictyostelium discoideum homogenates contain phosphatase activity which rapidly dephosphorylates Ins(1,4,5)P3 (D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) to Ins (myo-inositol). When assayed in Mg2+, Ins(1,4,5)P3 is dephosphorylated by the soluble Dictyostelium cell fraction to 20% Ins(1,4)P2 (D-myo-inositol 1,4-bisphosphate) and 80% Ins(4,5)P2 (D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate). In the particulate fraction Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase is relatively more active than the Ins(1,4,5)P3 1-phosphatase. CaCl2 can replace MgCl2 only for the Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity. Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(4,5)P2 are both further dephosphorylated to Ins4P (D-myo-inositol 4-monophosphate), and ultimately to Ins. Li+ ions inhibit Ins(1,4,5)P3 1-phosphatase, Ins(1,4)P2 1-phosphatase, Ins4P phosphatase and L-Ins1P (L-myo-inositol 1-monophosphate) phosphatase activities; Ins(1,4,5)P3 1-phosphatase is 10-fold more sensitive to Li+ (half-maximal inhibition at about 0.25 mM) than are the other phosphatases (half-maximal inhibition at about 2.5 mM). Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity is potently inhibited by 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (half-maximal inhibition at 3 microM). Furthermore, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate also inhibits dephosphorylation of Ins(4,5)P2. These characteristics point to a number of similarities between Dictyostelium phospho-inositol phosphatases and those from higher organisms. The presence of an hitherto undescribed Ins(1,4,5)P3 1-phosphatase, however, causes the formation of a different inositol bisphosphatase isomer [Ins(4,5)P2] from that found in higher organisms [Ins(1,4)P2]. The high sensitivity of some of these phosphatases for Li+ suggests that they may be the targets for Li+ during the alteration of cell pattern by Li+ in Dictyostelium.  相似文献

Agonist-stimulated production of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3], is considered the primary output signal of activated phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase. The physiological targets of this novel phospholipid and the identity of enzymes involved in its metabolism have not yet been established. We report here the identification of two enzymes which hydrolyze the 5-position phosphate of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, forming phosphatidylinositol (3,4)-bisphosphate. One of these enzymes is the 75 kDa inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (75 kDa 5-phosphatase), which has previously been demonstrated to metabolize inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3], inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4] and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2]. We have identified a second PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase in the cytosolic fraction of platelets, which forms a complex with the p85/p110 form of PI 3-kinase. This enzyme is immunologically and chromatographically distinct from the platelet 43 kDa and 75 kDa 5-phosphatases and is unique in that it removes the 5-position phosphate from PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, but does not metabolize PtdIns(4,5)P2, Ins(1,4,5)P3 or Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. These studies demonstrate the existence of multiple PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatases within the cell.  相似文献

Phosphoinositides: key players in cell signalling, in time and space   总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15  
Over the last few years, many reports have extended our knowledge of the inositol lipid metabolism and brought out some exciting information about the location, the variety and the role of phosphoinositides (PIs). Besides the so-called "canonical PI pathway" leading to the production of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2), the precursor of the intracellular second messengers inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol (DAG), many other metabolic pathways have been identified to produce seven different polyphosphoinositides. Several of these quantitatively minor lipid molecules appear to be specifically involved in the control of cellular events, such as the spatial and temporal organisation of key signalling pathways, the rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton or the intracellular vesicle trafficking. This is consistent with the fact that many of the enzymes, such as kinases and phosphatases, involved in the tight control of the intracellular level of polyphosphoinositides, are regulated and/or relocated through cell surface receptors for extracellular ligands. The remarkable feature of PIs, which can be rapidly synthesised and degraded in discrete membrane domains or even subnuclear structures, places them as ideal regulators and integrators of very dynamic mechanisms of cell regulation. In this review, we will summarise recent studies on the potential location, the metabolic pathways and the role of the different PIs. Some aspects of the temporal synthesis of D3 PIs will also be discussed.  相似文献

Phagocytosis requires phosphoinositides (PIs) as both signaling molecules and localization cues. How PIs coordinate to control phagosomal sealing and the accompanying switch of organelle identity is unclear. In this study, we followed dynamic changes in PIs during apoptotic cell clearance in Caenorhabditis elegans. We found that phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) and phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PtdIns3P), which accumulate transiently on unsealed and fully sealed phagosomes, respectively, are both involved in phagosome closure. We identified PtdIns3P phosphatase MTM-1 as an effector of PtdIns(4,5)P2 to promote phagosomal sealing. MTM-1 coordinates with the class II PI3 kinase PIKI-1 to control PtdIns3P levels on unsealed phagosomes. The SNX9 family protein LST-4 is required for sealing, and its association with unsealed phagosomes is regulated by PtdIns(4,5)P2, PIKI-1, and MTM-1. Loss of LST-4 or its retention on phagosomes disrupts sealing and suppresses PtdIns3P accumulation, indicating close coupling of the two events. Our findings support a coincidence detection mechanism by which phagosomal sealing is regulated and coupled with conversion from PtdIns(4,5)P2 enrichment on unsealed phagosomes to PtdIns3P enrichment on fully sealed phagosomes.  相似文献

The essential phospholipid PI4,5P(2) is generated by a well conserved PI4P 5-kinase, Mss4, in yeast. Balanced production and turnover of PI4,5P(2) is important for normal organization of the actin cytoskeleton and cell viability. Previous studies have shown that multiple PI phosphatases can regulate PI4,5P(2) levels. We report a new, unexpected regulatory mechanism for PI4,5P(2) homeostasis, directed by nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling of the lipid kinase. We show that Mss4 is a phosphoprotein, which contains a functional nuclear localization signal (NLS) and can shuttle between the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Temperature-conditional mss4 cells that accumulate Mss4 protein in the nucleus exhibit reduced levels of PI4,5P(2), depolarization of the actin cytoskeleton and a block in Mss4 phosphorylation, suggesting an essential role for phosphorylated Mss4 at the plasma membrane. Through the isolation of gene dosage-dependent suppressors of mss4 mutants, we identified Bcp1, a protein enriched in the nucleus, which is required for Mss4 nuclear export and is related to the mammalian BRCA2-interacting protein BCCIP. Together, these studies suggest a new mechanism for lipid kinase regulation through regulated nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling.  相似文献

Phospholipid metabolism is involved in hyperosmotic-stress responses in plants. To investigate the role of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC)-a key enzyme in phosphoinositide turnover-in hyperosmotic-stress signaling, we analyzed changes in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) content in response to hyperosmotic shock or salinity in Arabidopsis thaliana T87 cultured cells. Within a few s, a hyperosmotic shock, caused by mannitol, NaCl, or dehydration, induced a rapid and transient increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3. However, no transient increase was detected in cells treated with ABA. Neomycin and U73122, inhibitors of PI-PLC, inhibited the increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 caused by the hyperosmotic shock. A rapid increase in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) in response to the hyperosmotic shock also occurred, but the rate of increase was much slower than that of Ins(1,4,5)P3. These findings indicate that the transient Ins(1,4,5)P3 production was due to the activation of PI-PLC in response to hyperosmotic stress. PI-PLC inhibitors also inhibited hyperosmotic stress-responsive expression of some dehydration-inducible genes, such as rd29A (lti78/cor78) and rd17 (cor47), that are controlled by the DRE/CRT cis-acting element but did not inhibit hyperosmotic stress-responsive expression of ABA-inducible genes, such as rd20. Taken together, these results suggest the involvement of PI-PLC and Ins(1,4,5)P3 in an ABA-independent hyperosmotic-stress signal transduction pathway in higher plants.  相似文献

Specific interaction of the epsin N-terminal homology (ENTH) domain with the plasma membrane appears to bridge other related proteins to the specific regions of the membrane that are invaginated to form endocytic vesicles. An additional a-helix, referred to as helix 0 (H0), is formed in the presence of the soluble ligand inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] at the N terminus of the ENTH domain (amino acid residues 3-15). The ENTH domain alone and full-length epsin cause tubulation of liposomes made of brain lipids. Thus, it is believed that H0 is membrane-inserted when it is coordinated with the phospholipid phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2], resulting in membrane deformation as well as recruitment of accessory factors to the membrane. However, formation of H0 in a real biological membrane has not been demonstrated. In the present study, the membrane structure of H0 was determined by measurement of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) nitroxide accessibility. H0 was located at the phosphate head-group region of the membrane. Moreover, EPR line-shape analysis indicated that no pre-formed H0-like structure were present on normal acidic membranes. PtdIns(4,5)P2 was necessary and sufficient for interaction of the H0 region with the membrane. H0 was stable only in the membrane. In conclusion, the H0 region of the ENTH domain has an intrinsic ability to form H0 in a PtdIns(4,5)P2-containing membrane, perhaps functioning as a sensor of membrane patches enriched with PtdIns(4,5)P2 that will initiate curvature to form endocytic vesicles.  相似文献

Previously, we demonstrated that a protein that binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)] inhibits both light-induced stomatal opening and ABA-induced stomatal closing. The latter effect is due to a reduction in free PtdIns(4,5)P(2), decreasing production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and phosphatidic acid by phospholipases C and D. However, it is less clear how PtdIns(4,5)P(2) modulates stomatal opening. We found that in response to white light irradiation, the PtdIns(4,5)P(2)-binding domain GFP:PLCdelta1PH translocated from the cytosol into the plasma membrane. This suggests that the level of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) increases at the plasma membrane upon illumination. Exogenously administered PtdIns(4,5)P(2) substituted for light stimuli, inducing stomatal opening and swelling of guard cell protoplasts. To identify PtdIns(4,5)P(2) targets we performed patch-clamp experiments, and found that anion channel activity was inhibited by PtdIns(4,5)P(2). Genetic analyses using an Arabidopsis PIP5K4 mutant further supported the role of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in stomatal opening. The reduced stomatal opening movements exhibited by a mutant of Arabidopsis PIP5K4 (At3g56960) was countered by exogenous application of PtdIns(4,5)P(2). The phenotype of reduced stomatal opening in the pip5k4 mutant was recovered in lines complemented with the full-length PIP5K4. Together, these data suggest that PIP5K4 produces PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in irradiated guard cells, inhibiting anion channels to allow full stomatal opening.  相似文献

Inositol-5-phosphatases are important enzymes involved in the regulation of diverse cellular processes from synaptic vesicle recycling to insulin signaling. We describe a comparative study of two representative inositol-5-phosphatases, Schizosaccharomyces pombe synaptojanin (SPsynaptojanin) and human SH2 domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase SHIP2. We show that in addition to Mg2+, transition metals such as Mn2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ are also effective activators of SPsynaptojanin. In contrast, Ca2+ and Cu2+ are inhibitory. We provide evidence that Mg2+ binds the same site occupied by Ca2+ observed in the crystal structure of SPsynaptojanin complexed with inositol 1,4-bisphosphate (Ins(1,4)P2). Ionizations important for substrate binding and catalysis are defined for the SPsynaptojanin-catalyzed Ins(1,4,5)P3 reaction. Kinetic analysis with four phosphatidylinositol lipids bearing a 5-phosphate and 54 water-soluble inositol phosphates reveals that SP-synaptojanin and SHIP2 possess much broader substrate specificity than previously appreciated. The rank order for SPsynaptojanin is Ins(2,4,5)P3 > phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) approximately Ins(4,5)P2 approximately Ins(1,4,5)P3 approximately Ins(4,5,6)P3 > PtdIns(3,5)P2 approximately PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 approximately Ins(1,2,4,5)P4 approximately Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 approximately Ins-(2,4,5,6)P4 approximately Ins(1,2,4,5,6)P5. The rank order for SHIP2 is Ins(1,2,3,4,5)P5 > Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 > PtdIns(3,4,5)P4 approximately PtdIns(3,5)P2 approximately Ins(1,4,5,6)P4 approximately Ins(2,4,5,6)P4. Because inositol phosphate isomers elicit different biological activities, the extended substrate specificity for SPsynaptojanin and SHIP2 suggest that these enzymes likely have multiple roles in cell signaling and may regulate distinct pathways. The unique substrate specificity profiles and the importance of 2-position phosphate in binding also have important implications for the design of potent and selective SPsynaptojanin and SHIP2 inhibitors for pharmacological investigation.  相似文献

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] rapidly accumulates in elicited Cupressus lusitanica Mill. cultured cells by 4- to 5-fold over the control, and then it is metabolized. Correspondingly, phospholipase C (PLC) activity toward phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] is stimulated to high levels by the elicitor and then decreases whereas Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphatase activity declines at the beginning of elicitation and increases later. These observations indicate that elicitor-induced biosynthesis and dephosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 occur simultaneously and that the Ins(1,4,5)P3 level may be regulated by both PtdIns(4,5)P2–PLC and Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphatases. Studies on the properties of PLC and Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphatases indicate that PLC activity toward PtdIns(4,5)P2 was optimal at a lower Ca2+ concentration than activity toward phosphatidylinositol whereas Ins(1,4,5)P3 phosphatase activity is inhibited by high Ca2+ concentration. This suggests that Ins(1,4,5)P3 biosynthesis and degradation may be regulated by free cytosolic Ca2+. In addition, a relationship between Ins(1,4,5)P3 signaling and accumulation of a phytoalexin (-thujaplicin) is suggested because inhibition or promotion of Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation by neomycin or LiCl affects elicitor-induced production of -thujaplicin. Moreover, ruthenium red inhibits elicitor-induced accumulation of -thujaplicin while thapsigargin alone induces -thujaplicin accumulation. These results suggest that Ca2+ released from intracellular calcium stores may mediate elicitor-induced accumulation of -thujaplicin via an Ins(1,4,5)P3 signaling pathway, since it is widely accepted that Ins(1,4,5)P3 can mobilize Ca2+ from intracellular stores. This work demonstrates an elicitor-triggered Ins(1,4,5)P3 turnover, defines its enzymatic basis and regulation, and suggests a role for Ins(1,4,5)P3 in elicitor-induced phytoalexin accumulation via a Ca2+ signaling pathway.Abbreviations Ins(1,4,5)P3 Inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate - Ins(1,4)P2 Inositol-1,4-bisphosphate - Ins(4,5)P2 Inositol-4,5-bisphosphate - Ins(1)P Inositol 1-phosphate - Ins(4)P Inositol 4-phosphate - PLC Phospholipase C - PtdIns Phosphatidylinositol - PtdIns(4,5)P2 Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate - YE Yeast elicitor  相似文献
