Biochemistry and structure of phosphoinositide phosphatases
نویسندگان
چکیده
Phosphoinositides are the phosphorylated derivatives of phosphatidylinositol, and play a very significant role in a diverse range of signaling processes in eukaryotic cells. A number of phosphoinositide-metabolizing enzymes, including phosphoinositide-kinases and phosphatases are involved in the synthesis and degradation of these phospholipids. Recently, the function of various phosphatases in the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway has been of great interest. In the present review we summarize the structural insights and biochemistry of various phosphatases in regulating phosphoinositide metabolism.

Allosteric Activation of the Phosphoinositide Phosphatase Sac1 by Anionic Phospholipids
Sac family phosphoinositide phosphatases comprise an evolutionarily conserved family of enzymes in eukaryotes. Our recently determined crystal structure of the Sac phosphatase domain of yeast Sac1, the founding member of the Sac family proteins, revealed a unique conformation of the catalytic P-loop and a large positively charged groove at the catalytic site. We now report a unique mechanism fo...

متن کاملPhosphatidylinositol-3,5-bisphosphate: metabolism and physiological functions.
Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) is a membrane phospholipid composed of diacylglycerol and a D-myo-inositol head group. In mammals, the hydroxyl groups at the D3, D4 and D5 positions of the inositol ring can be phosphorylated to yield seven phosphoinositide derivatives. PtdIns-3,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,5)P2] is the most recently discovered species of phosphoinositide that is generated by the phos...

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the discovery of the PTEN/MMAC1/TEP1 tumor suppressor gene (hereafter referred to as PTEN), one of the most commonly mutated genes in cancer. PTEN encodes a lipid phosphatase that dephosphorylates phosphoinositide-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP(3)), thereby counteracting mitogenic signaling pathways driven by phosphoinositol-3-kinases (PI3K). By opposing PI3K si...
متن کاملCrystal structure of the yeast Sac1: implications for its phosphoinositide phosphatase function.
Sac family phosphoinositide (PI) phosphatases are an essential family of CX(5)R(T/S)-based enzymes, involved in numerous aspects of cellular function such as PI homeostasis, cellular signalling, and membrane trafficking. Genetic deletions of several Sac family members result in lethality in animal models and mutations of the Sac3 gene have been found in human hereditary diseases. In this study,...
