Abstract
Accurate measurement of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) activity is important in view of the key role of this enzyme in signal-transduction pathways. In this work we synthesized enantiomerically pure phosphorothiolate analogues of all natural PI-PLC substrates, including those of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI-4,5-P2), 4-phosphate (PI-4-P), 5-phosphate (PI-5-P) and unphosphorylated PI, in both long- and short-chain versions. The enzymatic cleavage of these substrates produces thiol analogues of diacyl glycerol, which can be quantified by UV absorbance after treatment with dipyridyl disulfide. The monodisperse dihexanoyl derivatives are suitable substrates for PI-PLC assay: they give rise to high enzyme activity, and provide excellent linear kinetic responses. For all substrates, we found a good linear correlation between the reaction rate and the amount of enzyme; this indicated the suitability of this assay for enzyme quantification. The short-chain substrates enable the enzyme specificity with variously phosphorylated inositol head groups to be established--unobstructed by substrate aggregation, "scooting" kinetics on micelles, or surface dilution effects. The kinetic results indicated allosteric behavior of PLC for all substrates tested. We found that substrates phosphorylated at the inositol 4-position (phosphorothiolate analogues of PI-4,5-P2 and PI-4-P) displayed very similar kinetic properties, and were cleaved with approximately 20- to 30-fold higher activity than the 4-nonphosphorylated substrates (analogues of PI-5-P and PI). Hence it appears that interactions between the enzyme and the 4-phosphate group of the substrate, but not its 5-phosphate group, is important for PI-PLC catalysis. In addition, the binding affinities of all four substrate types were found to be quite similar; this indicates that the energy of enzyme interaction with the 4-phosphate group is directed almost entirely to catalysis.

Abstract
Diacylglycerol (DAG)-induced activation of phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C (PI-PLC) was studied with vesicles containing PI, either pure or in mixtures with dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine, distearoyl phosphatidylcholine, sphingomyelin, or galactosylceramide, used as substrates. At 22°C, DAG at 33 mol % increased PI-PLC activity in all of the mixtures, but not in pure PI bilayers. DAG also caused an overall decrease in diphenylhexatriene fluorescence polarization (decreased molecular order) in all samples, and increased overall enzyme binding. Confocal fluorescence microscopy of giant unilamellar vesicles of all of the compositions under study, with or without DAG, and quantitative evaluation of the phase behavior using Laurdan generalized polarization, and of enzyme binding to the various domains, indicated that DAG activates PI-PLC whenever it can generate fluid domains to which the enzyme can bind with high affinity. In the specific case of PI/dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine bilayers at 22°C, DAG induced/increased enzyme binding and activation, but no microscopic domain separation was observed. The presence of DAG-generated nanodomains, or of DAG-induced lipid packing defects, is proposed instead for this system. In PI/galactosylceramide mixtures, DAG may exert its activation role through the generation of small vesicles, which PI-PLC is known to degrade at higher rates. In general, our results indicate that global measurements obtained using fluorescent probes in vesicle suspensions in a cuvette are not sufficient to elucidate DAG effects that take place at the domain level. The above data reinforce the idea that DAG functions as an important physical agent in regulating membrane and cell properties.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from Listeria monocytogenes forms aggregates with anionic lipids leading to low activity. The specific activity of the enzyme can be enhanced by dilution of the protein or by addition of both zwitterionic and neutral amphiphiles (e.g., diheptanoylphosphatidylcholine or Triton X-100) or 0.1-0.2 M inorganic salts. Activation by amphiphiles occurs with both micellar (phosphatidylinositol dispersed in detergents) and monomeric [dibutroylphosphatidylinositol (diC(4)PI)] phosphotransferase substrates and inositol 1,2-(cyclic)-phosphate (cIP), the phosphodiesterase substrate. The presence of zwitterionic and neutral amphiphiles (to which the protein binds weakly) dilutes the surface concentration of the interfacial anionic substrate and thereby reduces the level of enzyme-phospholipid particle aggregation. Zwitterionic amphiphiles also can bind directly to the protein and enhance catalysis since they enhance both diC(4)PI and cIP hydrolysis. In contrast to activation by amphiphiles, the rate enhancement by salt occurs for only the phosphotransferase step of the reaction. Added salt has a synergistic effect with zwitterionic phospholipids, leading to high specific activities for PI cleavage with only moderate dilution of the anionic substrate in the interface. This kinetic activation correlates with weakening of strong PI-PLC hydrophobic interactions with the interface as monitored by a decrease in the maximum monolayer surface pressure for insertion of the protein. Several point mutations of surface hydrophobic residues (W49A, L51A, L235A, and F237W) can dramatically alter the unusual kinetics of this secreted enzyme. The high affinity of PI-PLC for anionic phospholipids along with a strong hydrophobic interaction, which gives rise to the unusual kinetic behavior, is considered in terms of how it might contribute to the role of this phospholipase in L. monocytogenes infectivity.

Abstract
Bacillus thuringiensis phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC), a bacterial model for the catalytic domain of mammalian PI-PLC enzymes, was cross-linked by 1-ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl]carbodiimide hydrochloride to probe for the aggregation and/or conformational changes of PI-PLC when bound to activating phosphatidylcholine (PC) interfaces. Dimers and higher order multimers (up to 31% of the total protein when cross-linked at pH 7) were observed when the enzyme was cross-linked in the presence of PC vesicles. Aggregates were also detected with PI-PLC bound to diheptanoyl-PC (diC(7)PC) micelles, although the fraction of cross-linked multimers (19% at pH 7) was lower than when the enzyme was cross-linked in the presence of vesicles. PI-PLC cross-linked in the presence of a diC(7)PC interface exhibited an enhanced specific activity for PI cleavage. The extent of this cross-linking-enhanced activation was reduced in PI-PLC mutants lacking either tryptophan in the rim (W47A and W242A) of this (betaalpha)(8)-barrel protein. The higher activity of the native protein cross-linked in the presence of diC(7)PC correlated with an increased affinity of the protein for two diC(7)PC molecules as detected by matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. In contrast to wild type protein, W47A and W242A had only a single diC(7)PC tightly associated when cross-linked in the presence of that activator molecule. These results indicate that (i) each rim tryptophan residue is involved in binding a PC molecule at interfaces, (ii) the affinity of the enzyme for an activating PC molecule is enhanced when the protein is bound to a surface, and (iii) this conformation of the enzyme with at least two PC bound that is stabilized by chemical cross-linking interacts more effectively with activating interfaces, leading to higher observed specific activities for the phosphotransferase reaction.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C from Bacillus thuringiensis can be activated by nonsubstrate interfaces such as phosphatidylcholine micelles or bilayers. This activation corresponds with partial insertion into the interface of two tryptophans, Trp-47 in helix B and Trp-242 in a loop, in the rim of the alphabeta-barrel. Both W47A and W242A have much weaker binding to interfaces and considerably lower kinetic interfacial activation. Tryptophan rescue mutagenesis, reinsertion of a tryptophan at a different place in helix B in the W47A mutant or in the loop (residues 232-244) of the W242A mutant, has been used to determine the importance and orientation of a tryptophan in these two structural features. Phosphotransferase and phosphodiesterase assays, and binding to phosphatidylcholine vesicles were used to assess both orientation and position of tryptophans needed for interfacial activity. Of the helix B double mutants, only one mutant, I43W/W47A, has tryptophan in the same orientation as Trp-47. I43W/W47A shows recovery of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PC) activation of d-myo-inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate hydrolysis. However, the specific activity toward phosphatidylinositol is still lower than wild type enzyme and high activity with phosphatidylinositol solubilized in 30% isopropyl alcohol (a hallmark of the native enzyme) is lost. Reinserting a tryptophan at several positions in the loop composed of residues 232-244 partially recovers PC activation and affinity of the enzyme for lipid interfaces as well as activation by isopropyl alcohol. G238W/W242A shows an enhanced activation and affinity for PC interfaces above that of wild type. These results provide constraints on how this bacterial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C binds to activating PC interfaces.

Abstract
Two novel water-soluble fluorescein myo-inositol phosphate (FLIP) substrates, butyl-FLIP and methyl-FLIP, were used to examine the kinetics and subsite interactions of Bacillus cereus phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. Butyl-FLIP exhibited sigmoidal kinetics when initial rates are plotted versus substrate concentration. The data fit a Hill coefficient of 1.2-1.5, suggesting an allosteric interaction between two sites. Two substrate molecules bind to this enzyme, one at the active site and one at a subsite, causing an increase in activity. The kinetic behavior is mathematically similar to that of well-known cooperative multimeric enzymes even though this phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C is a small, monomeric enzyme. The less hydrophobic substrate, methyl-FLIP, binds only to the active site and not the activator site, and thus exhibits standard hyperbolic kinetics. An analytical expression is presented that accounts for the kinetics of both substrates in the absence and presence of a nonsubstrate short-chain phospholipid, dihexanoylphosphatidylcholine. The fluorogenic substrates detect activation at much lower concentrations of dihexanoylphosphatidylcholine than previously reported.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from Bacillus thuringiensis exhibits several types of interfacial activation. In the crystal structure of the closely related Bacillus cereus PI-PLC, the rim of the active site is flanked by a short helix B and a loop that show an unusual clustering of hydrophobic amino acids. Two of the seven tryptophans in PI-PLC are among the exposed residues. To test the importance of these residues in substrate and activator binding, we prepared several mutants of Trp-47 (in helix B) and Trp-242 (in the loop). Two other tryptophans, Trp-178 and Trp-280, which are not near the rim, were mutated as controls. Kinetic (both phosphotransferase and cyclic phosphodiesterase activities), fluorescence, and vesicle binding analyses showed that both Trp-47 and Trp-242 residues are important for the enzyme to bind to interfaces, both activating zwitterionic and substrate anionic surfaces. Partitioning of the enzyme to vesicles is decreased more than 10-fold for either W47A or W242A, and removal of both tryptophans (W47A/W242A) yields enzyme with virtually no affinity for phospholipid surfaces. Replacement of either tryptophan with phenylalanine or isoleucine has moderate effects on enzyme affinity for surfaces but yields a fully active enzyme. These results are used to describe how the enzyme is activated by interfaces.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) activity was investigated in 25 different lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains belonging to the genera Lactobacillus, Weisella, and Enterococcus. PI-PLC activity was detected in 44% of the strains studied in culture medium without carbon source. From the PI-PLC positive strains, Lactobacillus rhamnosus ATCC 7469 was selected for translocation studies. Healthy mice were orally administered with a daily dose of 2.0 x 10(9) of viable L. rhamnosus suspension. Viable bacteria were detected in liver and spleen of mice fed with LAB for 7 days. Bacterial colonies isolated from liver were biochemically characterized, and further subjected to randomly amplified polymorphic DNA. Amplification patterns of five strains displayed identical profiles to L. rhamnosus. PI-PLC activity was determined in the strains recovered from liver.

Abstract
The bacterial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) is a small, water-soluble enzyme that cleaves the natural membrane lipids PI, lyso-PI, and glycosyl-PI. The crystal structure, NMR and enzymatic mechanism of bacterial PI-PLCs are reviewed. These enzymes consist of a single domain folded as a (betaalpha)(8)-barrel (TIM barrel), are calcium-independent, and interact weakly with membranes. Sequence similarity among PI-PLCs from different bacterial species is extensive, and includes the residues involved in catalysis. Bacterial PI-PLCs are structurally similar to the catalytic domain of mammalian PI-PLCs. Comparative studies of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic isozymes have proved useful for the identification of distinct regions of the proteins that are structurally and functionally important.

Abstract
Dissociation constants for binding of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus (bcPI-PLC) and the mammalian phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C-delta(1) to lipid interfaces containing phosphoinositol, phosphocholine, and phosphomethanol head groups were determined by fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Dansyl-labeled lipid probes were used as acceptors, with intrinsic tryptophan of the enzyme as the donor. Titration of protein into lipid provided data from which K(d) and N, the limiting number of lipid molecules per protein bound, were calculated by non-linear regression analysis of exact binding equations. These results were compared with apparent K(m) values from kinetic data. K(d) values in the low microM range in terms of lipid monomers or low nM range in terms of binding sites were calculated with good fits of experimental data to theoretical binding curves. bcPI-PLC binds with high affinity to PI interfaces, slightly lower affinity to PC interfaces, and much lower affinity to PM interfaces. The mammalian enzyme also binds with high affinity to PI interfaces, but shows little or no binding with PC interfaces under similar concentration conditions. These K(d) values correlate reasonably with apparent K(m) values from kinetic experiments.

Abstract
1,2-Dimyristoyloxypropane-3-thiophospho(1D-1-myo-inositol) (D-thio-DMPI) was used as a substrate for the continuous assay of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC). Its activity with a Delta(1-132) deletion mutant of mammalian PI-PLCdelta1 is about one-fourth that with PI under similar conditions. Optimal conditions for the assay include 0.2 mM substrate, 0.2 mM Ca2+, and a mole ratio of hexadecylphosphocholine detergent to substrate of 2.0. A minimum of about 60 ng of pure enzyme can be detected. The apparent bulk Km for PI-PLC with D-thio-DMPI under these conditions is about 6 microM. Enzyme activity as a function of surface concentration of substrate shows no sign of saturation up to the maximum mole fraction.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) was studied with sonicated dispersions of a thiophosphate analog of phosphatidylinositol, 1, 2-dimyristoyloxypropane-3-thiophospho(1D-1-myo-inositol) (D-thio-DMPI). Kinetic parameters were derived from the rate as a function of bulk lipid concentration at constant saturating surface concentration of substrate (case I), and as a function of surface concentration of substrate at a constant saturating bulk concentration of lipid (case II). The substrate, D-thio-DMPI, was diluted with L-thio-DMPI or dimyristoyl phosphatidylmethanol (DMPM). In the presence of L-thio-DMPI, values for Vmax = 133 mumol min-1 mg-1, Ks' (the apparent dissociation constant for the enzyme-interface complex) = 0.097 mM, and Km* (the apparent interfacial Michaelis constant) = 0.22 mol fraction were obtained. DMPM caused enzyme inhibition in case I but no inhibition in case II. L-Thio-DMPI is an ideal neutral diluent with which to study the kinetics of PI-PLC.

Abstract
The pleckstrin homology (PH) domain has been postulated to serve as an anchor for enzymes that operate at a lipid/water interface. To understand further the relationship between the PH domain and enzyme activity, a phospholipase C (PLC) delta1/PH domain enhancement-of-activity mutant was generated. A lysine residue was substituted for glutamic acid in the PH domain of PLC delta1 at position 54 (E54K). Purified native and mutant enzymes were characterized using a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4, 5)P2)/dodecyl maltoside mixed micelle assay and kinetics measured according to the dual phospholipid model of Dennis and co-workers (Hendrickson, H. S., and Dennis, E. A. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 5734-5739; Carmen, G. M., Deems, R. A., and Dennis, E. A. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 18711-18714). Our results show that both PLC delta1 and E54K bind phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate cooperatively (Hill coefficients, n = 2.2 +/- 0.2 and 2.0 +/- 0.1, respectively). However, E54K shows a dramatically increased rate of (PI(4, 5)P2)-stimulated PI(4,5)P2 hydrolysis (interfacial Vmax for PLC delta1 = 4.9 +/- 0.3 micromol/min/mg and for E54K = 31 +/- 3 micromol/min/mg) as well as PI hydrolysis (Vmax for PLC delta1 = 27 +/- 3.4 nmol/min/mg and for E54K = 95 +/- 12 nmol/min/mg). In the absence of PI(4,5)P2 both native and mutant enzyme hydrolyze PI at similar rates. E54K also has a higher affinity for micellar substrate (equilibrium dissociation constant, Ks = 85 +/- 36 microM for E54K and 210 +/- 48 microM for PLC delta1). Centrifugation binding assays using large unilamelar phospholipid vesicles confirm that E54K binds PI(4,5)P2 with higher affinity than native enzyme. E54K is more active even though the interfacial Michaelis constant (Km) for E54K (0.034 +/- 0.01 mol fraction PI(4,5)P2) is higher than the Km for native enzyme (0.012 +/- 0.002 mol fraction PI(4,5)P2). D-Inositol trisphosphate is less potent at inhibiting E54K PI(4,5)P2 hydrolysis compared with native enzyme. These results demonstrate that a single amino acid substitution in the PH domain of PLC delta1 can dramatically enhance enzyme activity. Additionally, the marked increase in Vmax for E54K argues for a direct role of PH domains in regulating catalysis by allosteric modulation of enzyme structure.

Abstract
1,2-Dimyristoyloxypropane-3-thiophospho(1D-1-myo-inositol) (D-thio-DMPI) was synthesized as a substrate for the continuous spectrophotometric assay of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from Bacillus cereus. Release of thio-diglyceride is followed by a coupled reaction with 4,4'-dithiopyridine to produce a chromophore, 4-thiopyridine, measured by its absorption at 324 nm. Sonicated vesicles of D-thio-DMPI gave sigmoidal Michaelis-Menten kinetics with PI-PLC as a function of bulk concentration of substrate (Hill plot: Vmax = 132 mumol min-1 mg-1, apparent Km = 0.115 mM, h = 1.8). Addition of dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) or dimyristoyl phosphatidylmethanol to vesicles of D-thio-DMPI resulted in an initial increase in rate followed by a decrease at higher concentrations of non-substrate lipid. Binding of PI-PLC to vesicles of DMPC with 10 mol% of N-dansyl phosphatidylethanolamine was demonstrated by fluorescence resonance energy transfer from tryptophan in the enzyme to the dansyl lipid probe.

Abstract
Substrate analogues of phosphatidylinositol (1) were synthesized and evaluated as potential inhibitors of the bacterial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from Bacillus cereus. The chiral analogues of the water-soluble phospholipid substrate 5 were designed to probe the effects of varying the inositol C-2 hydroxyl group, which is generally believed to serve as the nucleophile in the first step of the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositols by PI-PLC. In the analogues 6-9, the C-2 hydroxyl group on the inositol ring of the phosphatidylinositol derivatives was rationally altered in several ways. Inversion of the stereochemistry at C-2 of the inositol ring led to the scyllo derivative 6. The inositol C-2 hydroxy group was replaced with inversion by a fluorine to produce the scyllo-fluoro inositol 7 and with a hydrogen atom to furnish the 2-deoxy compound 8. The C-2 hydroxyl group was O-methylated to prepare the methoxy derivative 9. The natural inositol configuration at C-2 was retained in the nonhydrolyzable phosphorodithioate analogue 10. The inhibition of PI-PLC by each of these analogues was then analyzed in a continuous assay using D-myo-inositol 1-(4-nitrophenyl phosphate) (25) as a chromogenic substrate. The kinetic parameters for each of these phosphatidylinositol derivatives were determined, and each was found to be a competitive inhibitor with K(i)'s as follows: 6, 0.2 mM; 10, 0.6 mM; 8, 2.6 mM; 9, 6.6 mM; and 7, 8.8 mM. This study further establishes that the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol analogues by bacterial PI-PLC requires not only the presence of a C-2 hydroxyl group on the inositol ring, but the stereochemistry at this position must also correspond to the natural myo-configuration. For future inhibitor design, it is perhaps noteworthy that the best inhibitors 6 and 10 each possess a hydroxyl group at the C-2 position. Several of the inhibitors identified in this study are now being used to obtain crystallographic information for an enzyme-inhibitor complex to gain further insights regarding the mechanism of hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositides by this PI-PLC.

Abstract
Enzyme inhibition studies on phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from B. Cereus were performed in order to gain an understanding of the mechanism of the PI-PLC family of enzymes and to aid inhibitor design. Inhibition studies on two synthetic cyclic phosphonate analogues (1,2) of inositol cyclic-1:2-monophosphate (cIP), glycerol-2-phosphate and vanadate were performed using natural phosphatidylinositol (PI) substrate in Triton X100 co-micelles and an NMR assay. Further inhibition studies on PI-PLC from B. Cereus were performed using a chromogenic, synthetic PI analogue (DPG-PI), an HPLC assay and Aerosol-OT (AOT), phytic acid and vanadate as inhibitors. For purposes of comparison, a model PI-PLC enzyme system was developed employing a synthetic Cu(II)-metallomicelle and a further synthetic PI analogue (IPP-PI). The studies employing natural PI substrate in Triton X100 co-micelles and synthetic DPG-PI in the absence of surfactant indicate three classes of PI-PLC inhibitors: (1) active-site directed inhibitors (e.g. 1,2); (2) water-soluble polyanions (e.g. tetravanadate, phytic acid); (3) surfactant anions (e.g. AOT). Three modes of molecular recognition are indicated to be important: (1) active site molecular recognition; (2) recognition at an anion-recognition site which may be the active site, and; (3) interfacial (or hydrophobic) recognition which may be exploited to increase affinity for the anion-recognition site in anionic surfactants such as AOT. The most potent inhibition of PI-PLC was observed by tetravanadate and AOT. The metallomicelle model system was observed to mimic PI-PLC in reproducing transesterification of the PI analogue substrate to yield cIP as product and in showing inhibition by phytic acid and AOT.

Abstract
A HeLa S3 subline is unusual in accumulating relatively large amounts of glucosaminyl(acyl)phosphatidylinositol (GlcN(acyl)PI), a derivative of phosphatidylinositol (PI) in which both GlcN and a fatty acid are linked to inositol hydroxyl groups (D. Sevlever, D. Humphrey, and T.L. Rosenberry, submitted for publication). This lipid is a proposed intermediate on the biosynthetic pathway for glycosyl-PI (GPI) anchors of membrane proteins. In this study we demonstrate for the first time that exogenous inositol phospholipids can enter this biosynthetic pathway and be metabolized to GlcN(acyl)PI. When HeLa S3 cells were incubated for 24 h with exogenous PI or sn-1-acyl-2-lyso-phosphatidyl-inositol (lyso-PI) labeled with 3H in the inositol group, 25-30% of the label was recovered in cell-associated lipids and most of the remaining 70-75% in hydrophilic metabolites in the medium. The predominant labeled lipid was PI, with smaller amounts of lyso-PI, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), and GlcN(acyl)PI. Both exogenous lipid precursors gave the same distribution of labeled lipids, and a similar distribution was observed for endogenous inositol phospholipids metabolically labeled with [3H]inositol. Addition of excess inositol had no effect on the conversion of [3H]lyso-PI to [3H]GlcN(acyl)PI, indicating that the conversion did not result from breakdown to [3H]inositol followed by resynthesis. The cellular orientation of incorporated PI and lyso-PI was determined by incubating cells at 4 degrees C with PI-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC). This enzyme cleaves only PI and lyso-PI on the outer leaflet of the cell membrane. After 24-h incubation with either precursor, only about 15% of cell-associated [3H]PI or [3H]lyso-PI was on the outer leaflet. However, more than 60% of the [3H]PI was on the outer leaflet after 1-h incubation with either precursor, suggesting that substantial sn-2 acylation of exogenous [3H]lyso-PI occurred in the outer leaflet. This suggestion was confirmed by examining labeled lipids in cells after uptake of [3H]lyso-PI at 4 degrees C. No transmembrane translocation of lyso-PI, PI phosphorylation, or PI glycosylation occurred at this temperature, but some sn-2 acylation was apparent and more than 90% of the [3H]PI formed was on the outer leaflet. These data indicate that sn-2 acylation can occur in the outer leaflet of the cell membrane, perhaps by transacylation from other cell surface phospholipids.

Abstract
The synthesis of optically-active hexadecyl thiophosphoryl-1-D-myo-inositol 11 was accomplished from 2,3-O-(D-1',7',7'-trimethyl[2.2.1]bicyclohept-2'-ylidene)-4,5,6-O- tris(methoxymethyl)-D-myo-inositol 6 or 2,3,4,5,6-O-pentakis(methoxymethyl)-D-myo-inositol 14, using the Arbusov reaction of their dimethyl phosphite derivatives 7 and 15 with N-hexadecyl thiophthalimide 8. This product was a substrate for phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus.

Abstract
A series of symmetric short-chain phosphatidylinositols (PI), including dihexanoyl-PI, diheptanoyl-PI (racemic as well as D and L forms), and 2-methoxy inositol-substituted diheptanoyl-PI, have been synthesized, characterized, and used to investigate key mechanistic questions about phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from Bacillus thuringiensis. Key results include the following: (i) bacterial PI-PLC exhibits a 5-6-fold "interfacial activation" when its substrate is present in an interface as opposed to existing as a monomer in solution (in fact, the similarity to the activation observed with nonspecific PLC enzymes suggests a similarity in activation mechanisms); (ii) the 2-OH must be free since the enzyme cannot hydrolyze diheptanoyl-2-O-methyl-PI (this is most consistent with the formation of inositol cyclic 1,2-phosphate as a necessary step in catalysis); (iii) the inositol ring must have the D stereochemistry (the L-inositol attached to the lipid moiety is neither a substrate nor an inhibitor); and (iv) the presence of noninhibitory L-PI with the D-PI substrate relieves the diacylglycerol product inhibition detected at approximately 30% hydrolysis.
