Abstract
Polyphosphoinositides (PPIns) are signalling messengers representing less than five per cent of the total phospholipid concentration within the cell. Despite their low concentration, these lipids are critical regulators of various cellular processes, including cell cycle, differentiation, gene transcription, apoptosis and motility. PPIns are generated by the phosphorylation of the inositol head group of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns). Different pools of PPIns are found at distinct subcellular compartments, which are regulated by an array of kinases, phosphatases and phospholipases. Six of the seven PPIns species have been found in the nucleus, including the nuclear envelope, the nucleoplasm and the nucleolus. The identification and characterisation of PPIns interactor and effector proteins in the nucleus have led to increasing interest in the role of PPIns in nuclear signalling. However, the regulation and functions of PPIns in the nucleus are complex and are still being elucidated. This review summarises our current understanding of the localisation, biogenesis and physiological functions of the different PPIns species in the nucleus.

Abstract
Although PIKFYVE phosphoinositide kinase inhibitors can selectively eliminate PIKFYVE-dependent human cancer cells in vitro and in vivo, the basis for this selectivity has remained elusive. Here we show that the sensitivity of cells to the PIKFYVE inhibitor WX8 is not linked to PIKFYVE expression, macroautophagic/autophagic flux, the BRAFV600E mutation, or ambiguous inhibitor specificity. PIKFYVE dependence results from a deficiency in the PIP5K1C phosphoinositide kinase, an enzyme required for conversion of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) into phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns[4,5]P2/PIP2), a phosphoinositide associated with lysosome homeostasis, endosome trafficking, and autophagy. PtdIns(4,5)P2 is produced via two independent pathways. One requires PIP5K1C; the other requires PIKFYVE and PIP4K2C to convert PtdIns3P into PtdIns(4,5)P2. In PIKFYVE-dependent cells, low concentrations of WX8 specifically inhibit PIKFYVE in situ, thereby increasing the level of its substrate PtdIns3P while suppressing PtdIns(4,5)P2 synthesis and inhibiting lysosome function and cell proliferation. At higher concentrations, WX8 inhibits both PIKFYVE and PIP4K2C in situ, which amplifies these effects to further disrupt autophagy and induce cell death. WX8 did not alter PtdIns4P levels. Consequently, inhibition of PIP5K1C in WX8-resistant cells transformed them into sensitive cells, and overexpression of PIP5K1C in WX8-sensitive cells increased their resistance to WX8. This discovery suggests that PIKFYVE-dependent cancers could be identified clinically by low levels of PIP5K1C and treated with PIKFYVE inhibitors.

Abstract
Calcium is one of the most prominent second messengers. It is involved in a wide range of functions at the single-cell level but also in modulating regulatory mechanisms in the entire organism. One process mediating calcium signaling involves hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) by the phospholipase-C (PLC). Thus, calcium and PtdIns(4,5)P2 are intimately intertwined two second-messenger cascades that often depend on each other. Another relevant lipid associated with calcium signaling is cholesterol. Both PtdIns(4,5)P2 and cholesterol play key roles in the formation and maintenance of specialized signaling nanodomains known as lipid rafts. Lipid rafts are particularly important in calcium signaling by concentrating and localizing calcium channels such as the Orai1 channel. Depletion of internal calcium stores is initiated by the production of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). Calcium depletion from the ER induces the oligomerization of STIM1, which binds Orai1 and initiates calcium influx into the cell. In the present review, we analyzed the complex interactions between cholesterol, PtdIns(4,5)P2, and the complex formed by the Orai1 channel and the signaling molecule STIM1. We explore some of the complex mechanisms governing calcium homeostasis and phospholipid metabolism, as well as the interaction between these two apparently independent signaling cascades.

Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a polyglutamine expansion in the protein huntingtin (HTT) [55]. While the final pathological consequence of HD is the neuronal cell death in the striatum region of the brain, it is still unclear how mutant HTT (mHTT) causes synaptic dysfunctions at the early stage and during the progression of HD. Here, we discovered that the basal activity of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is severely reduced in a striatal HD cell line, a mouse model of HD, and the human post-mortem brains of HD patients. In addition, we observed with a FRET-based FAK biosensor [59] that neurotransmitter-induced FAK activation is decreased in HD striatal neurons. Total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) imaging revealed that the reduced FAK activity causes the impairment of focal adhesion (FA) dynamics, which further leads to the defect in filopodial dynamics causing the abnormally increased number of immature neurites in HD striatal neurons. Therefore, our results suggest that the decreased FAK and FA dynamics in HD impair the proper formation of neurites, which is crucial for normal synaptic functions [52]. We further investigated the molecular mechanism of FAK inhibition in HD and surprisingly discovered that mHTT strongly associates with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate, altering its normal distribution at the plasma membrane, which is crucial for FAK activation [14, 60]. Therefore, our results provide a novel molecular mechanism of FAK inhibition in HD along with its pathological mechanism for synaptic dysfunctions during the progression of HD.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides play important roles in plant growth and development. Several SAC domain phosphoinositide phosphatases have been reported to be important for plant development. Here, we show functional analysis of SUPPRESSOR OF ACTIN 6 (SAC6) to SAC8 in Arabidopsis, a subfamily of phosphoinositide phosphatases containing SAC-domain and two transmembrane motifs. We isolated an Arabidopsis mutant ncp2 that lacked cotyledons in seedling and embryo in pid, a background defective in auxin signaling and transport. NCP2 encodes RHD4/SAC7 phosphoinositide phosphatase. SAC6, SAC7 and SAC8 exhibit overlapping and specific expression patterns in seedling and embryo. The sac6 sac7 embryos either fail to develop into seeds, or have three or four cotyledons. The embryo development of sac7 sac8 and sac6 sac7 sac8 mutants is significantly delayed or lethal, and the seedlings are arrested at early stages. Auxin maxima are decreased in double and triple sac mutants. The contents of PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2 in sac6 sac7 and sac7 sac8 mutants are dramatically increased. Protein trafficking of the plasma membrane (PM)-localized protein PIN1 and PIN2 from trans-Golgi network/early endosome back to PM is delayed in sac7 sac8 mutants. These results indicate that SAC6-SAC8 are essential for maintaining homeostasis of PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2, and auxin-mediated development in Arabidopsis.

Abstract
Nuclear receptors are transcription factors that bind lipids, an event that induces a structural conformation of the receptor that favors interaction with transcriptional coactivators. The nuclear receptor steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1, NR5A1) binds the signaling phosphoinositides PI(4,5)P2 (PIP2) and PI(3,4,5)P3 (PIP3), and our previous crystal structures showed how the phosphoinositide headgroups regulate SF-1 function. However, what role the acyl chains play in regulating SF-1 structure remains unaddressed. Here, we used X-ray crystallography with in vitro binding and functional assays to examine how the acyl chains of PIP3 regulate human SF-1 ligand-binding domain structure and function. Altering acyl chain length and unsaturation regulates apparent binding of all tested phosphoinositides to SF-1. Mass spectrometry-based lipidomics data suggest C16 and C18 phospholipids preferentially associate with SF-1 expressed ectopically in bacteria. We then solved the 2.5 Å crystal structure of SF-1 bound to dioleoyl PIP3(18:1/18:1) to compare it with a matched structure of SF-1 bound to dipalmitoyl PIP3(16:0/16:0). The dioleoyl-bound structure was severely disordered in a specific SF-1 region associated with pathogenic human polymorphisms and within the coactivator-binding region critical for SF-1 function while inducing increased sensitivity to protease digestion in solution. Validating these structural observations, in vitro functional studies showed dioleoyl PIP3 induced 6-fold poorer affinity of a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha coactivator peptide for SF-1 compared with dipalmitoyl PIP3. Together, these data suggest the chemical nature of the phosphoinositide acyl chains controls the ordered state of specific, clinically important structural regions in SF-1, regulating SF-1 function in vitro.

Abstract
Focal adhesions (FAs) are large assemblies of proteins that mediate intracellular signals between the cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix (ECM). The turnover of FA proteins plays a critical regulatory role in cancer cell migration. Plasma membrane lipids locally generated or broken down by different inositide kinases and phosphatase enzymes to activate and recruit proteins to specific regions in the plasma membrane. Presently, little attention has been given to the use of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) and Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) fluorescent biosensors in order to determine the spatiotemporal organisation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 within and around or during assembly and disassembly of FAs. In this study, specific biosensors were used to detect PtdIns(4,5)P2, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, and FAs proteins conjugated to RFP/GFP in order to monitor changes of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels within FAs. We demonstrated that the localisation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 were moderately correlated with that of FA proteins. Furthermore, we demonstrate that local levels of PtdIns(4,5)P2 increased within FA assembly and declined within FA disassembly. However, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels remained constant within FAs assembly and disassembly. In conclusion, this study shows that PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 localised in FAs may be regulated differently during FA assembly and disassembly.

Abstract
The phosphate esters of myo-inositol (Ins) occur ubiquitously in biology. These molecules exist as soluble or membrane-resident derivatives and regulate a plethora of cellular functions including phosphate homeostasis, DNA repair, vesicle trafficking, metabolism, cell polarity, tip-directed growth, and membrane morphogenesis. Phosphorylation of all inositol hydroxyl groups generates phytic acid (InsP6), the most abundant inositol phosphate present in eukaryotic cells. However, phytic acid is not the most highly phosphorylated naturally occurring inositol phosphate. Specialized small molecule kinases catalyze the formation of the so-called myo-inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs), such as InsP7 and InsP8. These molecules are characterized by one or several "high-energy" diphosphate moieties and are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells. In plants, PP-InsPs play critical roles in immune responses and nutrient sensing. The detection of inositol derivatives in plants is challenging. This is particularly the case for inositol pyrophosphates because diphospho bonds are labile in plant cell extracts due to high amounts of acid phosphatase activity. We present two steady-state inositol labeling-based techniques coupled with strong anion exchange (SAX)-HPLC analyses that allow robust detection and quantification of soluble and membrane-resident inositol polyphosphates in plant extracts. These techniques will be instrumental to uncover the cellular and physiological processes controlled by these intriguing regulatory molecules in plants.

Abstract
Proximity ligation assay (PLA) is a well-established method for detecting in situ interactions between two epitopes with high resolution and specificity. Notably, PLA is not only a robust method for studying protein-protein interaction but also an efficient approach to characterize and validate protein posttranslational modifications (PTM) using one antibody against the core protein and one against the PTM residue. Therefore, it could be applied as a powerful approach to detect specific interactions of endogenous phosphoinositides and their binding proteins within cells. Importantly, we have specifically detected the PLA signal between PtdIns(4,5)P2 and its binding effector p53 in the nucleus. This cutting-edge method fully complements other conventional approaches for studying phosphoinositide-protein interactions and provides important localization signals and robust quantitation of the detected interactions. Here, we present the PLA fluorescence protocol for detecting in situ phosphoinositide-protein interactions in cultured cells and is semiquantitative for interactions that are regulated by cellular signaling.

Abstract
Oxysterol binding related proteins 5 and 8 (ORP5 and ORP8) are two close homologs of the larger oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) family of sterol sensors and lipid transfer proteins (LTP). Early studies indicated these transmembrane proteins, anchored to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), bound and sensed cholesterol and oxysterols. They were identified as important for diverse cellular functions including sterol homeostasis, vesicular trafficking, proliferation and migration. In addition, they were implicated in lipid-related diseases such as atherosclerosis and diabetes, but also cancer, although their mechanisms of action remained poorly understood. Then, alongside the increasing recognition that membrane contact sites (MCS) serve as hubs for non-vesicular lipid transfer, added to their structural similarity to other LTPs, came discoveries showing that ORP5 and 8 were in fact phospholipid transfer proteins that rather sense and exchange phosphatidylserine (PS) for phosphoinositides, including phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI(4)P) and potentially phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2). Evidence now points to their action at MCS between the ER and various organelles including the plasma membrane, lysosomes, mitochondria, and lipid droplets. Dissecting exactly how this unexpected phospholipid transfer function connects with sterol regulation in health or disease remains a challenge for future studies.

Abstract
Polar tip growth of pollen tubes is regulated by the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2), which localizes in a well-defined region of the subapical plasma membrane. How the PtdIns(4,5)P2 region is maintained is currently unclear. In principle, the formation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 by PI4P 5-kinases can be counteracted by phospholipase C (PLC), which hydrolyzes PtdIns(4,5)P2. Here, we show that fluorescence-tagged tobacco NtPLC3 displays a subapical plasma membrane distribution which frames that of fluorescence-tagged PI4P 5-kinases, suggesting that NtPLC3 may modulate PtdIns(4,5)P2-mediated processes in pollen tubes. The expression of a dominant negative NtPLC3 variant resulted in pollen tube tip swelling, consistent with a delimiting effect on PtdIns(4,5)P2 production. When pollen tube morphologies were assessed as a quantitative read-out for PtdIns(4,5)P2 function, NtPLC3 reverted the effects of a coexpressed PI4P 5-kinase, demonstrating that NtPLC3-mediated breakdown of PtdIns(4,5)P2 antagonizes the effects of PtdIns(4,5)P2 overproduction in vivo. When analyzed by spinning disc microscopy, fluorescence-tagged NtPLC3 displayed discontinuous membrane distribution omitting punctate areas of the membrane, suggesting that NtPLC3 is involved in the spatial restriction of plasma membrane domains also at the nanodomain scale. Together, the data indicate that NtPLC3 may contribute to the spatial restriction of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the subapical plasma membrane of pollen tubes.

Abstract
Lysosomes are key cellular catabolic centers that also perform fundamental metabolic, signaling and quality control functions. Lysosomes are not static and they respond dynamically to intra‐ and extracellular stimuli triggering changes in organelle numbers, size and position. Such physical changes have a strong impact on lysosomal activity ultimately influencing cellular homeostasis. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on lysosomal size regulation, on its physiological role(s) and association to several disease conditions.

Abstract
The voltage-sensing phosphatase (VSP) is a unique protein that shows voltage-dependent phosphoinositide phosphatase activity. Here we report that VSP is activated in mice sperm flagellum and generates a unique subcellular distribution pattern of PtdIns(4,5)P2 Sperm from VSP-/- mice show more Ca2+ influx upon capacitation than VSP+/- mice and abnormal circular motion. VSP-deficient sperm showed enhanced activity of Slo3, a PtdIns(4,5)P2-sensitive K+ channel, which selectively localizes to the principal piece of the flagellum and indirectly enhances Ca2+ influx. Most interestingly, freeze-fracture electron microscopy analysis indicates that normal sperm have much less PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the principal piece than in the midpiece of the flagellum, and this polarized PtdIns(4,5)P2 distribution disappeared in VSP-deficient sperm. Thus, VSP appears to optimize PtdIns(4,5)P2 distribution of the principal piece. These results imply that flagellar PtdIns(4,5)P2 distribution plays important roles in ion channel regulation as well as sperm motility.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide kinase PIP5K6 has recently been identified as a target for the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) MPK6. Phosphorylation of PIP5K6 inhibited the production of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2 ), impacting membrane trafficking and cell expansion in pollen tubes. Here, we analyzed whether MPK6 regulated PIP5K6 in vegetative Arabidopsis cells in response to the pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) flg22. Promoter-β-glucuronidase analyses and quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction data show PIP5K6 expressed throughout Arabidopsis tissues. Upon flg22 treatment of transgenic protoplasts, the PIP5K6 protein was phosphorylated, and this modification was reduced for a PIP5K6 variant lacking MPK6-targeted residues, or in protoplasts from mpk6 mutants. Upon flg22 treatment of Arabidopsis plants, phosphoinositide levels mildly decreased and a fluorescent reporter for PtdIns(4,5)P2 displayed reduced plasma membrane association, contrasting with phosphoinositide increases reported for abiotic stress responses. Flg22 treatment and chemical induction of the upstream MAPK kinase, MKK5, decreased phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase activity in mesophyll protoplasts, indicating that the flg22-activated MAPK cascade limited PtdIns(4,5)P2 production. PIP5K6 expression or PIP5K6 protein abundance changed only marginally upon flg22 treatment, consistent with post-translational control of PIP5K6 activity. PtdIns(4,5)P2 -dependent endocytosis of FM 4-64, PIN2 and the NADPH-oxidase RbohD were reduced upon flg22 treatment or MKK5 induction. Reduced RbohD-endocytosis was correlated with enhanced ROS production. We conclude that MPK6-mediated phosphorylation of PIP5K6 limits the production of a functional PtdIns(4,5)P2 pool upon PAMP perception.

Abstract
Polyphosphoinositides (PPIns) are a family of seven lipid messengers that regulate a vast array of signalling pathways to control cell proliferation, migration, survival and differentiation. PPIns are differentially present in various sub-cellular compartments and, through the recruitment and regulation of specific proteins, are key regulators of compartment identity and function. Phosphoinositides and the enzymes that synthesise and degrade them are also present in the nuclear membrane and in nuclear membraneless compartments such as nuclear speckles. Here we discuss how PPIns in the nucleus are modulated in response to external cues and how they function to control downstream signalling. Finally we suggest a role for nuclear PPIns in liquid phase separations that are involved in the formation of membraneless compartments within the nucleus.

Abstract
Entamoeba histolytica is an intestinal protist parasite that causes amoebiasis, a major source of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Phosphoinositides are involved in signalling systems that have a role in invasion and pathogenesis of this parasite. Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) catalyses the generation of phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2 ), a key species of phosphoinositide that regulates various cellular processes. However, phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase (PIPK) family of enzymes have not been characterized in E. histolytica. Here, we report the identification and characterization of type I PIPK (EhPIPKI) of E. histolytica. Computational analysis revealed homologs of type I and III PIPK family in E. histolytica and the absence of type II PIPK. In spite of low overall sequence identity, the kinase domain was found to be highly conserved. Interestingly, a unique insertion of a tandem repeat motif was observed in EhPIPKI distinguishing it from existing PIPKs of other organisms. Substrate profiling showed that EhPIPKI could phosphorylate at third and fifth hydroxyl positions of phosphatidylinositols, though the predominant substrate was phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P). Furthermore, EhPIPKI underwent intracellular cleavage close to the amino-terminal, generating two distinct fragments Nter-EhPIPKI (27p) and Cter-EhPIPKI (47p). Immunofluorescence and cellular fractionation revealed that the full-length EhPIPKI and the Cter-EhPIPKI containing carboxyl-terminal activation loop were present in the plasma membrane while the Nter-EhPIPKI was observed in the cytosolic region. In conclusion, E. histolytica has a single EhPIPKI gene that displays novel properties of post-translational processing, the presence of a repeat domain and substrate specificity not observed in any PIPK enzyme so far.

Abstract
Cilia are cellular antennae that are essential for human development and physiology. A large number of genetic disorders linked to cilium dysfunction are associated with proteins that localize to the ciliary transition zone (TZ), a structure at the base of cilia that regulates trafficking in and out of the cilium. Despite substantial effort to identify TZ proteins and their roles in cilium assembly and function, processes underlying maturation of TZs are not well understood. Here, we report a role for the membrane lipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) in TZ maturation in the Drosophila melanogaster male germline. We show that reduction of cellular PIP2 levels through ectopic expression of a phosphoinositide phosphatase or mutation of the type I phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase Skittles induces formation of longer than normal TZs. These hyperelongated TZs exhibit functional defects, including loss of plasma membrane tethering. We also report that the onion rings (onr) allele of DrosophilaExo84 decouples TZ hyperelongation from loss of cilium-plasma membrane tethering. Our results reveal a requirement for PIP2 in supporting ciliogenesis by promoting proper TZ maturation.

Abstract
The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transactivator of transcription (Tat) protein functions both intracellularly and extracellularly. Intracellularly, the main function is to enhance transcription of the viral promoter. However, this process only requires a small amount of intracellular Tat. The majority of Tat is secreted through an unconventional mechanism by binding to phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2 ), a phospholipid in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane that is required for secretion. This interaction is mediated by the basic domain of Tat (residues 48-57) and a conserved tryptophan (residue 11). After binding to PtdIns(4,5)P2 , Tat secretion diverges into multiple pathways, which we categorized as oligomerization-mediated pore formation, spontaneous translocation and incorporation into exosomes. Extracellular Tat has been shown to be neurotoxic and toxic to other cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and periphery, able to recruit immune cells to the CNS and cerebrospinal fluid, and alter the gene expression and morphology of uninfected cells. The effects of extracellular Tat have been examined in HIV-1-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND); however, only a small number of studies have focused on the mechanisms underlying Tat secretion. In this review, the molecular mechanisms of Tat secretion will be examined in a variety of biologically relevant cell types.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PtdIns) play important roles in exocytosis and are thought to regulate secretory granule docking by co-clustering with the SNARE protein syntaxin to form a docking receptor in the plasma membrane. Here we tested this idea by high-resolution total internal reflection imaging of EGFP-labeled PtdIns markers or syntaxin-1 at secretory granule release sites in live insulin-secreting cells. In intact cells, PtdIns markers distributed evenly across the plasma membrane with no preference for granule docking sites. In contrast, syntaxin-1 was found clustered in the plasma membrane, mostly beneath docked granules. We also observed rapid accumulation of syntaxin-1 at sites where granules arrived to dock. Acute depletion of plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2 ) by recruitment of a 5'-phosphatase strongly inhibited Ca2+ -dependent exocytosis, but had no effect on docked granules or the distribution and clustering of syntaxin-1. Cell permeabilization by α-toxin or formaldehyde-fixation caused PtdIns marker to slowly cluster, in part near docked granules. In summary, our data indicate that PtdIns(4,5)P2 accelerates granule priming, but challenge a role of PtdIns in secretory granule docking or clustering of syntaxin-1 at the release site.

Abstract
This paper describes a novel type of nuclear structure - nuclear lipid islets (NLIs). They are of 40-100 nm with a lipidic interior, and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] molecules comprise a significant part of their surface. Most of NLIs have RNA at the periphery. Consistent with that, RNA is required for their integrity. The NLI periphery is associated with Pol II transcription machinery, including the largest Pol II subunit, transcription factors and NM1 (also known as NMI). The PtdIns(4,5)P2-NM1 interaction is important for Pol II transcription, since NM1 knockdown reduces the Pol II transcription level, and the overexpression of wild-type NM1 [but not NM1 mutated in the PtdIns(4,5)P2-binding site] rescues the transcription. Importantly, Pol II transcription is dependent on NLI integrity, because an enzymatic reduction of the PtdIns(4,5)P2 level results in a decrease of the Pol II transcription level. Furthermore, about half of nascent transcripts localise to NLIs, and transcriptionally active transgene loci preferentially colocalise with NLIs. We hypothesize that NLIs serve as a structural platform that facilitates the formation of Pol II transcription factories, thus participating in the formation of nuclear architecture competent for transcription.

Abstract
Autophagy is a regulated self-digestion pathway with fundamental roles in cell homeostasis and diseases. Autophagy is regulated by coordinated actions of a series of autophagy-related (ATG) proteins. The Barkor/ATG14(L)-VPS34 (a class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) complex and its product phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PtdIns(3)P] play key roles in autophagy initiation. ATG14 contains a C-terminal Barkor/ATG14(L) autophagosome-targeting sequence (BATS) domain that senses the curvature of PtdIns(3)P-containing membrane. The BATS domain also strongly binds PtdIns(4,5)P2, but the functional significance has been unclear. Here we show that ATG14 specifically interacts with type Iγ PIP kinase isoform 5 (PIPKIγi5), an enzyme that generates PtdIns(4,5)P2 in mammalian cells. Autophagosomes have associated PIPKIγi5 and PtdIns(4,5)P2 that are colocalized with late endosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum. PtdIns(4,5)P2 generation at these sites requires PIPKIγi5. Loss of PIPKIγi5 results in a loss of ATG14, UV irradiation resistance-associated gene, and Beclin 1 and a block of autophagy. PtdIns(4,5)P2 binding to the ATG14-BATS domain regulates ATG14 interaction with VPS34 and Beclin 1, and thus plays a key role in ATG14 complex assembly and autophagy initiation. This study identifies an unexpected role for PtdIns(4,5)P2 signaling in the regulation of ATG14 complex and autophagy.

Abstract
Rab35 is one of the first discovered members of the large Rab GTPase family, yet it received little attention for 10 years being considered merely as a Rab1-like GTPase. In 2006, Rab35 was recognized as a unique Rab GTPase localized both at the plasma membrane and on endosomes, playing essential roles in endocytic recycling and cytokinesis. Since then, Rab35 has become one of the most studied Rabs involved in a growing number of cellular functions, including endosomal trafficking, exosome release, phagocytosis, cell migration, immunological synapse formation and neurite outgrowth. Recently, Rab35 has been acknowledged as an oncogenic GTPase with activating mutations being found in cancer patients. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of known Rab35-dependent cellular functions and detail the few Rab35 effectors characterized so far. We also review how the Rab35 GTP/GDP cycle is regulated, and emphasize a newly discovered mechanism that controls its tight activation on newborn endosomes. We propose that the involvement of Rab35 in such diverse and apparently unrelated cellular functions can be explained by the central role of this GTPase in regulating phosphoinositides and F-actin, both on endosomes and at the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are a collection of lipid messengers that regulate most subcellular processes. Amongst the seven phosphoinositide species, the roles for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] at the plasma membrane, such as in endocytosis, exocytosis, actin polymerization and focal adhesion assembly, have been extensively studied. Recent studies have argued for the existence of PtdIns(4,5)P2 at multiple intracellular compartments, including the nucleus, endosomes, lysosomes, autolysosomes, autophagic precursor membranes, ER, mitochondria and the Golgi complex. Although the generation, regulation and functions of PtdIns(4,5)P2 are less well-defined in most other intracellular compartments, accumulating evidence demonstrates crucial roles for PtdIns(4,5)P2 in endolysosomal trafficking, endosomal recycling, as well as autophagosomal pathways, which are the focus of this Commentary. We summarize and discuss how phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinases, PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(4,5)P2-effectors regulate these intracellular protein and membrane trafficking events.

Abstract
Depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores evokes store-operated Ca(2+) entry through the Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels. In this study, we found that the store-operated Ca(2+) entry was inhibited by neomycin, an aminoglycoside that strongly binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). Patch clamp recordings revealed that neomycin blocked the CRAC currents reconstituted by co-expression of Orai1 and Stim1 in HEK293 cells. Using a rapamycin-inducible PtdIns(4,5)P2-specific phosphatase (Inp54p) system to manipulate the PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the plasma membrane, we found that the CRAC current was not altered by PtdIns(4,5)P2 depletion. This result suggests that PtdIns(4,5)P2 is not required for CRAC channel activity, and thereby, neomycin inhibits CRAC channels in a manner that is independent of neomycin-PtdIns(4,5)P2 binding.

Abstract
Lysosomal degradation is essential for the termination of EGF-stimulated EGF receptor (EGFR) signaling. This requires EGFR sorting to the intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) of multi-vesicular endosomes (MVEs). Cytosolic proteins including the ESCRT machineries are key regulators of EGFR intraluminal sorting, but roles for endosomal transmembrane proteins in receptor sorting are poorly defined. Here, we show that LAPTM4B, an endosomal transmembrane oncoprotein, inhibits EGF-induced EGFR intraluminal sorting and lysosomal degradation, leading to enhanced and prolonged EGFR signaling. LAPTM4B blocks EGFR sorting by promoting ubiquitination of Hrs (an ESCRT-0 subunit), which inhibits the Hrs association with ubiquitinated EGFR. This is counteracted by the endosomal PIP kinase, PIPKIγi5, which directly binds LAPTM4B and neutralizes the inhibitory function of LAPTM4B in EGFR sorting by generating PtdIns(4,5)P2 and recruiting SNX5. PtdIns(4,5)P2 and SNX5 function together to protect Hrs from ubiquitination, thereby promoting EGFR intraluminal sorting. These results reveal an essential layer of EGFR trafficking regulated by LAPTM4B, PtdIns(4,5)P2 signaling, and the ESCRT complex and define a mechanism by which the oncoprotein LAPTM4B can transform cells and promote tumor progression.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are low abundant but essential phospholipids in eukaryotic cells and refer to phosphatidylinositol and its seven polyphospho-derivatives. In this review, we summarize our current knowledge on phosphoinositides in multiple aspects of cell division in animal cells, including mitotic cell rounding, longitudinal cell elongation, cytokinesis furrow ingression, intercellular bridge abscission and post-cytokinesis events. PtdIns(4,5)P₂production plays critical roles in spindle orientation, mitotic cell shape and bridge stability after furrow ingression by recruiting force generator complexes and numerous cytoskeleton binding proteins. Later, PtdIns(4,5)P₂hydrolysis and PtdIns3P production are essential for normal cytokinesis abscission. Finally, emerging functions of PtdIns3P and likely PtdIns(4,5)P₂have recently been reported for midbody remnant clearance after abscission. We describe how the multiple functions of phosphoinositides in cell division reflect their distinct roles in local recruitment of protein complexes, membrane traffic and cytoskeleton remodeling. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Phosphoinositides.

Abstract
Cell-cell fusion is a regulated process that requires merging of the opposing membranes and underlying cytoskeletons. However, the integration between membrane and cytoskeleton signaling during fusion is not known. Using Drosophila, we demonstrate that the membrane phosphoinositide PI(4,5)P2 is a crucial regulator of F-actin dynamics during myoblast fusion. PI(4,5)P2 is locally enriched and colocalizes spatially and temporally with the F-actin focus that defines the fusion site. PI(4,5)P2 enrichment depends on receptor engagement but is upstream or parallel to actin remodeling. Regulators of actin branching via Arp2/3 colocalize with PI(4,5)P2 in vivo and bind PI(4,5)P2 in vitro. Manipulation of PI(4,5)P2 availability leads to impaired fusion, with a reduction in the F-actin focus size and altered focus morphology. Mechanistically, the changes in the actin focus are due to a failure in the enrichment of actin regulators at the fusion site. Moreover, improper localization of these regulators hinders expansion of the fusion interface. Thus, PI(4,5)P2 enrichment at the fusion site encodes spatial and temporal information that regulates fusion progression through the localization of activators of actin polymerization.

Abstract
Plasma membrane Ca(2+) ATPases (PMCAs, also known as ATP2B1-ATP2B4) are known targets of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P₂], but if and how they control the PtdIns(4,5)P₂ pool has not been considered. We demonstrate here that PMCAs protect PtdIns(4,5)P₂ in the plasma membrane from hydrolysis by phospholipase C (PLC). Comparison of active and inactive PMCAs indicates that the protection operates by two mechanisms; one requiring active PMCAs, the other not. It appears that the mechanism requiring activity is the removal of the Ca(2+) required for sustained PLC activity, whereas the mechanism not requiring activity is PtdIns(4,5)P₂ binding. We show that in PMCA overexpressing cells, PtdIns(4,5)P₂ binding can lead to less inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (InsP₃) and diminished Ca(2+) release from intracellular Ca(2+) pools. Inspection of a homology model of PMCA suggests that PMCAs have a conserved cluster of basic residues forming a 'blue collar' at the interface between the membrane core and the cytoplasmic domains. By molecular dynamics simulation, we found that the blue collar forms four binding pockets for the phosphorylated inositol head group of PtdIns(4,5)P₂; these pockets bind PtdIns(4,5)P₂ strongly and frequently. Our studies suggest that by having the ability to bind PtdIns(4,5)P₂, PMCAs can control the accessibility of PtdIns(4,5)P₂ for PLC and other PtdIns(4,5)P₂-mediated processes.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol phosphates are important regulators of processes such as the cytoskeleton organization, membrane trafficking and gene transcription, which are all crucial for polarized cell growth. In particular, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] has essential roles in polarized growth as well as in cellular responses to stress. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the sole phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase (PI4P5K) Mss4p is essential for generating plasma membrane PtdIns(4,5)P2. Here, we show that Mss4p is required for yeast invasive growth in low-nutrient conditions. We isolated specific mss4 mutants that were defective in cell elongation, induction of the Flo11p flocculin, adhesion and cell wall integrity. We show that mss4-f12 cells have reduced plasma membrane PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels as well as a defect in its polarized distribution, yet Mss4-f12p is catalytically active in vitro. In addition, the Mss4-f12 protein was defective in localizing to the plasma membrane. Furthermore, addition of cAMP, but not an activated MAPKKK allele, partially restored the invasive growth defect of mss4-f12 cells. Taken together, our results indicate that plasma membrane PtdIns(4,5)P2 is crucial for yeast invasive growth and suggest that this phospholipid functions upstream of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase A signaling pathway.

Abstract
The phenomenon known as the slow afterhyperpolarization (sAHP) was originally described more than 30 years ago in pyramidal cells as a slow, Ca(2+)-dependent afterpotential controlling spike frequency adaptation. Subsequent work showed that similar sAHPs were widely expressed in the brain and were mediated by a Ca(2+)-activated potassium current that was voltage-independent, insensitive to most potassium channel blockers, and strongly modulated by neurotransmitters. However, the molecular basis for this current has remained poorly understood. The sAHP was initially imagined to reflect the activation of a potassium channel directly gated by Ca(2+) but recent studies have begun to question this idea. The sAHP is distinct from the Ca(2+)-dependent fast and medium AHPs in that it appears to sense cytoplasmic [Ca(2+)](i) and recent evidence implicates proteins of the neuronal calcium sensor (NCS) family as diffusible cytoplasmic Ca(2+) sensors for the sAHP. Translocation of Ca(2+)-bound sensor to the plasma membrane would then be an intermediate step between Ca(2+) and the sAHP channels. Parallel studies strongly suggest that the sAHP current is carried by different potassium channel types depending on the cell type. Finally, the sAHP current is dependent on membrane PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and Ca(2+) appears to gate this current by increasing PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels. Because membrane PtdIns(4,5)P(2) is essential for the activity of many potassium channels, these finding have led us to hypothesize that the sAHP reflects a transient Ca(2+)-induced increase in the local availability of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) which then activates a variety of potassium channels. If this view is correct, the sAHP current would not represent a unitary ionic current but the embodiment of a generalized potassium channel gating mechanism. This model can potentially explain the cardinal features of the sAHP, including its cellular heterogeneity, slow kinetics, dependence on cytoplasmic [Ca(2+)], high temperature-dependence, and modulation.

Abstract
Inositides are intrinsic components of cell membranes that regulate a wide variety of cellular functions. PtdIns(4,5)P2, one of the most abundant phosphoinositides, is restricted at the plasma membrane where it regulates numerous functions including cell division. We have recently established that the Drosophila inositol 5-phosphatase, dOCRL, is essential for cytokinesis, the last step of cell division (Ben El Kadhi et al. 2011).8 We demonstrated that dOCRL is required for the dephosphorylation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 at the surface of endosomes, resulting in the restriction of this phosphoinositide to the cell cortex during cytokinesis. dOCRL is the Drosophila ortholog of human OCRL1, a PtdIns(4,5)P2 phosphatase mutated in the X-linked disorder oculocerebrorenal Lowe syndrome. Here, we discuss the relevance of our findings with reference to the role of human OCRL1 in non-pathological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide (PI) system has been conserved in evolution between all eukaryotic kingdoms. Studies on mammalian and yeast cells indicate that cellular functions regulated by PIs include the production of soluble inositolpolyphosphates with signaling functions as well as recruitment of proteins required for endo- or exocytosis. In contrast to other models, knowledge on PI functions in plants is limited and, despite of reports of transient PI-increases upon stress-treatments, plant cellular processes involving changes in PI-levels have remained unclear. In previous studies various groups have proposed that PI-increases upon hyperosmotic stress support the generation of soluble second messengers with possible roles in stress adaptation. Based on a combination of biochemical analysis and imaging of fluorescent reporters we have now demonstrated that intact phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) associates with clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) in a stress-inducible manner in plant cells. In analogy to previous studies on other models, association with CCVs suggests a role for PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in the recruitment of vesicle coat proteins and in membrane internalization that is alternative to functions in second messenger production. The determination of subcellular sites of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) increases, thus, opens new avenues of investigation in the plant PI-field and allows development of testable hypotheses to delineate PI-functions in plants.

Abstract
The apical plasma membrane of pollen tubes contains different PI4P 5-kinases that all produce phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)] but exert distinct cellular effects. In the present example, overexpression of Arabidopsis AtPIP5K5 or tobacco NtPIP5K6-1 caused growth defects previously attributed to increased pectin secretion. In contrast, overexpression of Arabidopsis AtPIP5K2 caused apical tip swelling implicated in altering actin fine structure in the pollen tube apex. AtPIP5K5, NtPIP5K6-1, and AtPIP5K2 share identical domain structures. Domains required for correct membrane association of the enzymes were identified by systematic deletion of N-terminal domains and subsequent expression of fluorescence-tagged enzyme truncations in tobacco pollen tubes. A variable linker region (Lin) contained in all PI4P 5-kinase isoforms of subfamily B, but not conserved in sequence, was recognized to be necessary for correct subcellular localization of AtPIP5K5, NtPIP5K6-1, and AtPIP5K2. Deletion of N-terminal domains including the Lin domain did not impair catalytic activity of recombinant AtPIP5K5, NtPIP5K6-1, or AtPIP5K2 in vitro; however, the presence of the Lin domain was necessary for in vivo effects on pollen tube growth upon overexpression of truncated enzymes. Overexpression of catalytically inactive variants of AtPIP5K5, NtPIP5K6-1, or AtPIP5K2 did not influence pollen tube growth, indicating that PtdIns(4,5)P(2) production rather than structural properties of PI4P 5-kinases was relevant for the manifestation of growth phenotypes. When Lin domains were swapped between NtPIP5K6-1 and AtPIP5K2 and the chimeric enzymes overexpressed in pollen tubes, the chimeras reciprocally gained the capabilities to invoke tip swelling or secretion phenotypes, respectively. The data indicate that the Lin domain directed the enzymes into different regulatory contexts, possibly contributing to channeling of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) at the interface of secretion and actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Guard cells sense various environmental and internal stimuli and, in response, modulate the stomatal aperture to a size optimal for growth and adaptation. Among the many factors involved in the fine regulation of stomata, we have focused our studies on the role of phosphoinositides. Our recent study published in the Plant Journal (52:803-16) provides evidence for an important role for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bis-phosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) in inducing stomatal opening. Light induces translocation of a PtdIns(4,5)P(2)-binding protein from the cytosol to the plasma membrane and treatments that increase the intracellular PtdIns(4,5)P(2) level induce stomatal opening in the absence of light irradiation. Inhibition of anion channel activity, a negative regulator for stomatal opening, was suggested as a mechanism of PtdIns(4,5)P(2)-induced stomatal opening. We also reported that phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P) regulate actin dynamics in guard cells. The effects of the phosphoinositides were specific, and were not induced by other lipids with similar structures. The roles of different interacting partners are likely to be important for these lipids to produce specific changes in guard cell activity.
