Abstract: | Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) is the obligatory precursor of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3) or IP(3)) and is therefore critical to intracellular Ca(2+) signaling. Using RNA interference (RNAi), we identified the short splice variant of type I phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase gamma (PIP5KIgamma87) as the major contributor of the PIP(2) pool that supports G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-mediated IP(3) generation. PIP5KIgamma87 RNAi decreases the histamine-induced IP(3) response and Ca(2+) flux by 70%. Strikingly, RNAi of other PIP5KI isoforms has minimal effect, even though some of these isoforms account for a larger percent of total PIP(2) mass and have previously been implicated in receptor mediated endocytosis or focal adhesion formation. Therefore, PIP5KIgamma87's PIP(2) pool that supports GPCR-mediated Ca(2+) signaling is functionally compartmentalized from those generated by the other PIP5KIs. |
