Abstract: | Cells from several different plant species synthesised a polyphosphoinositide (PPI)-like lipid when osmo-stressed. Synthesis was maximal after about 10 min and was stimulated by a variety of osmolytes. Using NaCl, the strongest response centred around 200 mM. The lipid was shown to be the novel PPI isomer phosphatidyl-inositol 3,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns-(3,5)P2] by analytical thin-layer chromatography and conversion to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 using recombinant phosphoinositide 4-OH kinase. The results indicate that PtdIns-(3,5)P2 plays a role in a general osmo-signalling pathway in plants. Its potential role is discussed. Received: 6 November 1998 / Accepted: 14 December 1998 |
