چکیده

Phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2)] plays a key role in the modulation of actin polymerization and vesicle trafficking. These processes seem to depend on the enrichment of PI(4,5)P(2) in plasma membrane domains. Here, we show that PI(4,5)P(2) does not form domains when in a fluid phosphatidylcholine matrix in the pH range of 4.8-8.4. This finding is at variance with the spontaneous segregation of PI(4,5)P(2) to domains as a mechanism for the compartmentalization of PI(4,5)P(2) in the plasma membrane. Water/bilayer partition of PI(4,5)P(2) is also shown to be dependent on the protonation state of the lipid.

Differential regulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae phospholipase D in sporulation and Sec14-independent secretion.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Spo14, a phosphatidylcholine-specific, phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate-activated phospholipase D (PLD), is essential for meiosis and spore formation. Spo14 is also required for secretion in the absence of the phosphatidylinositol/phosphatidylcholine transfer protein Sec14 (i.e., Sec14-independent secretion). In sporulating cells Spo14 is phosphorylated and reloc...

Phospholipase D regulation and localisation is dependent upon a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific PH domain

The signalling pathway leading, for example, to actin cytoskeletal reorganisation, secretion or superoxide generation involves phospholipase D (PLD)-catalysed hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine to generate phosphatidic acid, which appears to mediate the messenger functions of this pathway. Two PLD genes (PLD1 and PLD2) with similar domain structures have been doned and progress has been made in ...

Calcium Directly Regulates Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Bisphosphate Headgroup Conformation and Recognition

The orchestrated recognition of phosphoinositides and concomitant intracellular release of Ca2+ is pivotal to almost every aspect of cellular processes, including membrane homeostasis, cell division and growth, vesicle trafficking, as well as secretion. Although Ca2+ is known to directly impact phosphoinositide clustering, little is known about the molecular basis for this or its significance i...

Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-Bisphosphate Enhances Anionic Lipid Demixing by the C2 Domain of PKCα

The C2 domain of PKCα (C2α) induces fluorescence self-quenching of NBD-PS in the presence of Ca2+, which is interpreted as the demixing of phosphatidylserine from a mixture of this phospholipid with phosphatidylcholine. Self-quenching of NBD-PS was considerably increased when phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) was present in the membrane. When PIP2 was the labeled phospholipid, in the...
