Abstract
In mycobacteria, phosphatidylinositol (PI) acts as a common lipid anchor for key components of the cell wall, including the glycolipids phosphatidylinositol mannoside, lipomannan, and lipoarabinomannan. Glycolipids in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, are important virulence factors that modulate the host immune response. The identity-defining step in PI biosynthesis in prokaryotes, unique to mycobacteria and few other bacterial species, is the reaction between cytidine diphosphate-diacylglycerol and inositol-phosphate to yield phosphatidylinositol-phosphate, the immediate precursor to PI. This reaction is catalyzed by the cytidine diphosphate-alcohol phosphotransferase phosphatidylinositol-phosphate synthase (PIPS), an essential enzyme for mycobacterial viability. Here we present structures of PIPS from Mycobacterium kansasii with and without evidence of donor and acceptor substrate binding obtained using a crystal engineering approach. PIPS from Mycobacterium kansasii is 86% identical to the ortholog from M. tuberculosis and catalytically active. Functional experiments guided by our structural results allowed us to further characterize the molecular determinants of substrate specificity and catalysis in a new mycobacterial species. This work provides a framework to strengthen our understanding of phosphatidylinositol-phosphate biosynthesis in the context of mycobacterial pathogens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In plants, the shoot apical meristem (SAM) has two main functions, involving the production of all aerial organs on the one hand and self-maintenance on the other, allowing the production of organs during the entire post-embryonic life of the plant. Transcription factors, microRNA, hormones, peptides and forces have been involved in meristem function. Whereas phosphatidylinositol phosphates (PIPs) have been involved in almost all biological functions, including stem cell maintenance and organogenesis in animals, the processes in meristem biology to which PIPs contribute still need to be delineated. RESULTS Using biosensors for PI4P and PI(4,5)P2, the two most abundant PIPs at the plasma membrane, we reveal that meristem functions are associated with a stereotypical PIP tissue-scale pattern, with PI(4,5)P2 always displaying a more clear-cut pattern than PI4P. Using clavata3 and pin-formed1 mutants, we show that stem cell maintenance is associated with reduced levels of PIPs. In contrast, high PIP levels are signatures for organ-meristem boundaries. Interestingly, this pattern echoes that of cortical microtubules and stress anisotropy at the meristem. Using ablations and pharmacological approaches, we further show that PIP levels can be increased when the tensile stress pattern is altered. Conversely, we find that katanin mutant meristems, with increased isotropy of microtubule arrays and slower response to mechanical perturbations, exhibit reduced PIP gradients within the SAM. Comparable PIP pattern defects were observed in phospholipase A3β overexpressor lines, which largely phenocopy katanin mutants at the whole plant level. CONCLUSIONS Using phospholipid biosensors, we identified a stereotypical PIP accumulation pattern in the SAM that negatively correlates with stem cell maintenance and positively correlates with organ-boundary establishment. While other cues are very likely to contribute to the final PIP pattern, we provide evidence that the patterns of PIP, cortical microtubules and mechanical stress are positively correlated, suggesting that the PIP pattern, and its reproducibility, relies at least in part on the mechanical status of the SAM.

Abstract
Genetic defects in myelin formation and maintenance cause leukodystrophies, a group of white matter diseases whose mechanistic underpinnings are poorly understood. Hypomyelination and congenital cataract (HCC), one of these disorders, is caused by mutations in FAM126A, a gene of unknown function. We show that FAM126A, also known as hyccin, regulates the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P), a determinant of plasma membrane identity. HCC patient fibroblasts exhibit reduced PtdIns(4)P levels. FAM126A is an intrinsic component of the plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase complex that comprises PI4KIIIα and its adaptors TTC7 and EFR3 (refs 5,7). A FAM126A-TTC7 co-crystal structure reveals an all-α-helical heterodimer with a large protein-protein interface and a conserved surface that may mediate binding to PI4KIIIα. Absence of FAM126A, the predominant FAM126 isoform in oligodendrocytes, destabilizes the PI4KIIIα complex in mouse brain and patient fibroblasts. We propose that HCC pathogenesis involves defects in PtdIns(4)P production in oligodendrocytes, whose specialized function requires massive plasma membrane expansion and thus generation of PtdIns(4)P and downstream phosphoinositides. Our results point to a role for FAM126A in supporting myelination, an important process in development and also following acute exacerbations in multiple sclerosis.

Abstract
CONTEXT Insulin analogues are largely used for the treatment of diabetic patients, but concerns have been raised about their mitogenic/anti-apoptotic potential. It is therefore important to evaluate these analogues in different cell systems. OBJECTIVE The aim of this work was to establish the pharmacological profiles of insulin analogues towards PI-3 kinase/Akt pathway in INS-1 β-pancreatic cells. METHODS Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer (BRET), in cell western and caspase 3/7 assays, was used to study the effects of ligands. RESULTS Among the five analogues evaluated, only glargine stimulated PI-3 kinase/Akt pathway with higher efficiency than insulin, whereas glargine's metabolite M1 was less efficient. However, glargine did not show higher anti-apoptotic efficiency than insulin. CONCLUSION Glargine was more efficient than insulin for the activation of PI-3 kinase/Akt pathway, but not for the inhibition of caspase 3/7 activity. Moreover, glargine's metabolite M1 displayed lower efficiency than insulin towards PI-3 kinase/Akt activation and caspase 3/7 inhibition.

Abstract
The membrane lipids from fast-elongating wild-type cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) fibers at 10 days post-anthesis, wild-type ovules with fiber cells removed, and ovules from the fuzzless-lintless mutant harvested at the same age, were extracted, separated, and quantified. Fiber cells contained significantly higher amounts of phosphatidylinositol (PI) than both ovule samples with PI 34:3 being the most predominant species. The genes encoding fatty acid desaturases (Δ(15)GhFAD), PI synthase (PIS) and PI kinase (PIK) were expressed in a fiber-preferential manner. Further analysis of phosphatidylinositol monophosphate (PIP) indicated that elongating fibers contained four- to five-fold higher amounts of PIP 34:3 than the ovules. Exogenously applied linolenic acid (C18:3), soybean L-α-PI, and PIPs containing PIP 34:3 promoted significant fiber growth, whereas a liver PI lacking the C18:3 moiety, linoleic acid, and PIP 36:2 were completely ineffective. The growth inhibitory effects of carbenoxolone, 5-hydroxytryptamine, and wortmannin were reverted by C18:3, PI, or PIP, respectively, suggesting that PIP signaling is essential for fiber cell growth. Furthermore, cotton plants expressing virus-induced gene-silencing constructs that specifically suppressed GhΔ(15)FAD, GhPIS, or GhPIK expression, resulted in significantly short-fibered phenotypes. Our data provide the basis for in-depth studies on the roles of PI and PIP in mediating cotton fiber growth.

Abstract
Synthesis of phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P) by Vps34, a class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), is critical for the initial steps of autophagosome (AP) biogenesis. Although Vps34 is the sole source of PI3P in budding yeast, mammalian cells can produce PI3P through alternate pathways, including direct synthesis by the class II PI3Ks; however, the physiological relevance of these alternate pathways in the context of autophagy is unknown. Here we generated Vps34 knockout mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and using a higher affinity 4x-FYVE finger PI3P-binding probe found a Vps34-independent pool of PI3P accounting for (~)35% of the total amount of this lipid species by biochemical analysis. Importantly, WIPI-1, an autophagy-relevant PI3P probe, still formed some puncta upon starvation-induced autophagy in Vps34 knockout MEFs. Additional characterization of autophagy by electron microscopy as well as protein degradation assays showed that while Vps34 is important for starvation-induced autophagy there is a significant component of functional autophagy occurring in the absence of Vps34. Given these findings, class II PI3Ks (α and β isoforms) were examined as potential positive regulators of autophagy. Depletion of class II PI3Ks reduced recruitment of WIPI-1 and LC3 to AP nucleation sites and caused an accumulation of the autophagy substrate, p62, which was exacerbated upon the concomitant ablation of Vps34. Our studies indicate that while Vps34 is the main PI3P source during autophagy, class II PI3Ks also significantly contribute to PI3P generation and regulate AP biogenesis.

Abstract
RxLR effectors produced by Phytophthora pathogens have been proposed to bind to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) to mediate their translocation into host cells and/or to increase their stability in planta. Since the levels of PtdIns(3)P in plants are low, we examined whether Phytophthora species may produce PtdIns(3)P to promote infection. We observed that PtdIns(3)P-specific GFP biosensors could bind to P. parasitica and P. sojae hyphae during infection of Nicotiana benthamiana leaves transiently secreting the biosensors, suggesting that the hyphae exposed PtdIns(3)P on their plasma membrane and/or secreted PtdIns(3)P. Silencing of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3K) genes, treatment with LY294002, or expression of PtdIns(3)P-binding proteins by P. sojae reduced the virulence of the pathogen on soybean, indicating that pathogen-synthesized PtdIns(3)P was required for full virulence. Secretion of PtdIns(3)P-binding proteins or of a PI3P-5-kinase by N. benthamiana leaves significantly increased the level of resistance to infection by P. parasitica and P. capsici. Together, our results support the hypothesis that Phytophthora species produce external PtdIns(3)P to aid in infection, such as to promote entry of RxLR effectors into host cells. Our results derived from P. sojae RxLR effector Avr1b confirm that both the N-terminus and the C-terminus of this effector can bind PtdIns(3)P.

Abstract
Background In diabetic patients, the pharmacokinetics of injected human insulin does not permit optimal control of glycemia. Fast and slow acting insulin analogues have been developed, but they may have adverse properties, such as increased mitogenic or anti-apoptotic signaling. Insulin/IGF1 hybrid receptors (IR/IGF1R), present in most tissues, have been proposed to transmit biological effects close to those of IGF1R. However, the study of hybrid receptors is difficult because of the presence of IR and IGF1R homodimers. Our objective was to perform the first study on the pharmacological properties of the five marketed insulin analogues towards IR/IGF1R hybrids. Methodology To study the effect of insulin analogues on IR/IGF1R hybrids, we used our previously developed Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer (BRET) assay that permits specific analysis of the pharmacological properties of hybrid receptors. Moreover, we have developed a new, highly sensitive BRET-based assay to monitor phophatidylinositol-3 phosphate (PIP3) production in living cells. Using this assay, we performed a detailed pharmacological analysis of PIP3 production induced by IGF1, insulin and insulin analogues in living breast cancer-derived MCF-7 and MDA-MB231 cells. Results Among the five insulin analogues tested, only glargine stimulated IR/IGF1R hybrids with an EC50 that was significantly lower than insulin and close to that of IGF1. Glargine more efficiently stimulated PIP3 production in MCF-7 cells but not in MDA-MB231 cells as compared to insulin. In contrast, glargine metabolites M1 and M2 showed lower potency for hybrid receptors stimulation, PIP3 production, Akt and Erk1/2 phosphorylation and DNA synthesis in MCF-7 cells, compared to insulin. Conclusion Glargine, possibly acting through IR/IGF1R hybrids, displays higher potency, whereas its metabolites M1 and M2 display lower potency than insulin for the stimulation of proliferative/anti-apoptotic pathways in MCF-7 cells.

Abstract
Cellular levels of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) have been shown to be upregulated during RNA replication of several viruses, including the HCV replicon model. However, whether PI4P is required in an infectious HCV model remains unknown. Moreover, it is not established whether the host transport machinery is sequestered by the generation of PI4P during HCV infection. Here we found that PI4P was enriched in HCV replication complexes when Huh7.5.1 cells were infected with JFH1. HCV replication was inhibited upon overexpression of the PI4P phosphatase Sac1. The PI4P kinase PI4KIIIβ was also found to be required for HCV replication. Moreover, the vesicular transport proteins ARF1 and GBF1 colocalized with PI4KIIIβ and were both required for HCV replication. During authentic HCV infection, PI4P plays an integral role in virus replication.

Abstract
We have recently detected phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI4P) in the extracellular medium of tomato cell suspensions. Extracellular PI4P was shown to trigger the activation of defence responses induced by the fungal elicitor xylanase. In this study, by applying a differential centrifugation technique, we found that extracellular PI4P is associated with fractions composed of diverse phospholipids and proteins, which were pelleted from the extracellular medium of tomato cell suspensions grown under basal conditions. Using mass spectrometry, we identified the proteins present in these pelleted fractions. Most of these proteins have previously been characterised as having a role in defence responses. Next, we evaluated whether PI4P could also be detected in an entire plant system. For this, apoplastic fluids of tomato plants grown under basal conditions were analysed using a lipid overlay assay. Interestingly, PI4P could be detected in intercellular fluids obtained from tomato leaflets and xylem sap of tomato plants. By employing electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS), other phospholipids were also found in intercellular fluids of tomato plants. These had a markedly different profile from the phospholipid pattern identified in entire leaflets. Based on these results, the potential role of extracellular phospholipids in plant intercellular communication is discussed.

Abstract
Arabidopsis thaliana phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (AtVPS34) functions in the development and germination of pollen by catalyzing the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P). In yeast, Vps15p is required for the membrane targeting and activity of Vps34. The expression of Arabidopsis thaliana VPS15 (AtVPS15), an ortholog of yeast Vps15, is mainly detected in pollen grains and pollen tubes. To determine its role in pollen development and pollen tube growth, we attempted to isolate the T-DNA insertion mutants of AtVPS15; however, homozygous lines of atvps15 were not obtained from the progeny of atvps15/+ heterozygotes. Genetic analysis revealed that the abnormal segregation is due to the failure of transmission of the atvps15 allele through pollen. Most pollen grains from the atvps15/+ genotype are viable, with normal exine structure and nuclei, but some mature pollen grains are characterized with unusual large vacuoles that are not observed in pollen grains from the wild AtVPS15 genotype. The germination ratio of pollen from the atvps15/+ genotype is about half when compared to that from the wild AtVPS15 genotype. When supplied with PI3P, in vitro pollen germination of the atvps15/+ genotype is greatly improved. Presumably, AtVPS15 functions in pollen development and germination by regulating PI3P biosynthesis in Arabidopsis.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide phospholipid PtdIns5P has previously been implicated in insulin-stimulated translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4 into the plasma membrane of adipocytes, but its potential role in glucose transport in muscle has not been explored. The involvement of PtdIns5P in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was therefore investigated in myotubes of the skeletal muscle cell line L6. Stimulation with insulin produced a transient increase in PtdIns5P, which was abolished by the over-expression of the highly active PtdIns5P 4-kinase PIP4Kα. PIP4Kα over-expression also abolished both the enhanced glucose uptake and the robust peak of PtdIns(3,4,5)P (3) production stimulated by insulin in myotubes. Delivery of exogenous PtdIns5P into unstimulated myotubes increased Akt phosphorylation, promoted GLUT4 relocalisation from internal membrane to plasma membrane fractions and its association with plasma membrane lawns and also stimulated glucose uptake in a tyrosine kinase and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase)-dependent fashion. Our results are consistent with a role for insulin-stimulated PtdIns5P production in regulating glucose transport by promoting PI 3-kinase signalling.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2) ], the predominant phosphoinositide (PI) on the plasma membrane, binds the matrix (MA) protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) with similar affinities in vitro. Interaction with PI(4,5)P(2) is critical for HIV-1 assembly on the plasma membrane. EIAV has been shown to localize in internal compartments; hence, the significance of its interaction with PI(4,5)P(2) is unclear. We therefore investigated the binding in vitro of other PIs to EIAV MA and whether intracellular association with compartments bearing these PIs was important for assembly and release of virus-like particles (VLPs) formed by Gag. In vitro, EIAV MA bound phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P] with higher affinity than PI(4,5)P(2) as revealed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra upon lipid titration. Gag was detected on the plasma membrane and in compartments enriched in phosphatidylinositol 3,5-biphosphate [PI(3,5)P(2) ]. Treatment of cells with YM201636, a kinase inhibitor that blocks production of PI(3,5)P(2) from PI(3)P, caused Gag to colocalize with aberrant compartments and inhibited VLP release. In contrast to HIV-1, release of EIAV VLPs was not significantly diminished by coexpression with 5-phosphatase IV, an enzyme that specifically depletes PI(4,5)P(2) from the plasma membrane. However, coexpression with synaptojanin 2, a phosphatase with broader specificity, diminished VLP production. PI-binding pocket mutations caused striking budding defects, as revealed by electron microscopy. One of the mutations also modified Gag-Gag interaction, as suggested by altered bimolecular fluorescence complementation. We conclude that PI-mediated targeting to peripheral and internal membranes is a critical factor in EIAV assembly and release.

Abstract
Silencing of PIKfyve, the sole enzyme for PtdIns(3,5)P(2) biosynthesis that controls proper endosome dynamics, inhibits retroviral replication. A novel PIKfyve-specific inhibitor YM201636 disrupts retroviral budding at 800 nM, suggesting its potential use as an antiretroviral therapeutic. Because PIKfyve is also required for optimal insulin activation of GLUT4 surface translocation and glucose influx, we tested the outcome of YM201636 application on insulin responsiveness in 3T3L1 adipocytes. YM201636 almost completely inhibited basal and insulin-activated 2-deoxyglucose uptake at doses as low as 160 nM, with IC(50)=54+/-4 nM for the net insulin response. Insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation was partially inhibited at substantially higher doses, comparable to those required for inhibition of insulin-induced phosphorylation of Akt/PKB. In addition to PIKfyve, YM201636 also completely inhibited insulin-dependent activation of class IA PI 3-kinase. We suggest that apart from PIKfyve, there are at least two additional targets for YM201636 in the context of insulin signaling to GLUT4 and glucose uptake: the insulin-activated class IA PI 3-kinase and a here-unidentified high-affinity target responsible for the greater inhibition of glucose entry vs. GLUT4 translocation. The profound inhibition of the net insulin effect on glucose influx at YM201636 doses markedly lower than those required for efficient retroviral budding disruption warns of severe perturbations in glucose homeostasis associated with potential YM201636 use in antiretroviral therapy.

Abstract
Key components of membrane trafficking and signaling machinery in eukaryotic cells are proteins that bind or synthesize phosphoinositides. PIKfyve, a product of an evolutionarily conserved single-copy gene has both these features. It binds to membrane phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns)3P and synthesizes PtdIns(3,5)P2 and PtdIns5P. Molecular functions of PIKfyve are elusive but recent advances are consistent with a key role in the course of endosomal transport. PIKfyve dysfunction induces endosome enlargement and profound cytoplasmic vacuolation, likely as a result of impaired normal endosome processing and membrane exit out of endosomes. Multicellular organisms with genetically impaired function of PIKfyve or that of the PIKfyve protein partners regulating PtdIns(3,5)P2 homeostasis display severe disorders, including embryonic/perinatal death. This review describes recent advances on PIKfyve functionality in higher eukaryotes, with particular reference to biochemical and genetic insights in PIKfyve protein partners.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)gamma and Dictyostelium PI3K are activated via G protein-coupled receptors through binding to the Gbetagamma subunit and Ras. However, the mechanistic role(s) of Gbetagamma and Ras in PI3K activation remains elusive. Furthermore, the dynamics and function of PI3K activation in the absence of extracellular stimuli have not been fully investigated. We report that gbeta null cells display PI3K and Ras activation, as well as the reciprocal localization of PI3K and PTEN, which lead to local accumulation of PI(3,4,5)P(3). Simultaneous imaging analysis reveals that in the absence of extracellular stimuli, autonomous PI3K and Ras activation occur, concurrently, at the same sites where F-actin projection emerges. The loss of PI3K binding to Ras-guanosine triphosphate abolishes this PI3K activation, whereas prevention of PI3K activity suppresses autonomous Ras activation, suggesting that PI3K and Ras form a positive feedback circuit. This circuit is associated with both random cell migration and cytokinesis and may have initially evolved to control stochastic changes in the cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Elucidation of the role of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in epithelial function has been hampered by the inability to selectively manipulate the cellular content of this phosphoinositide. Here we report that SigD, a phosphatase derived from Salmonella, can effectively hydrolyze PtdIns(4,5)P2, generating PtdIns(5)P. When expressed by microinjecting cDNA into epithelial cells forming confluent monolayers, wild-type SigD induced striking morphological and functional changes that were not mimicked by a phosphatase-deficient SigD mutant (C462S). Depletion of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in intact SigD-injected cells was verified by detachment from the membrane of the pleckstrin homology domain of phospholipase Cδ, used as a probe for the phosphoinositide by conjugation to green fluorescent protein. Single-cell measurements of cytosolic pH indicated that the Na+/H+ exchange activity of epithelia was markedly inhibited by depletion of PtdIns(4,5)P2. Similarly, anion permeability, measured using two different halide-sensitive probes, was depressed in cells expressing SigD. Depletion of PtdIns(4,5)P2 was associated with marked alterations in the actin cytoskeleton and its association with the plasma membrane. The junctional complexes surrounding the injected cells gradually opened and the PtdIns(4,5)P2-depleted cells eventually detached from the monolayer, which underwent rapid restitution. Similar observations were made in intestinal and renal epithelial cultures. In addition to its effects on phosphoinositides, SigD has been shown to convert inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (IP5) into inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (IP4), and the latter has been postulated to mediate the diarrhea caused by Salmonella. However, the effects of SigD on epithelial cells were not mimicked by microinjection of IP4. In contrast, the cytoskeletal and ion transport effects were replicated by hydrolyzing PtdIns(4,5)P2 with a membrane-targeted 5-phosphatase or by occluding the inositide using high-avidity tandem PH domain constructs. We therefore suggest that opening of the tight junctions and inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange caused by PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis combine to account, at least in part, for the fluid loss observed during Salmonella-induced diarrhea.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium invades non-phagocytic cells by inducing macropinocytosis. SopB is involved in modulating actin dynamics to promote Salmonella-induced invasion. We report here that SopB-generated PtdIns(3)P binds VAMP8/endobrevin to promote efficient bacterial phagocytosis. VAMP8 is recruited to Salmonella-induced macropinosomes in a nocodazole-dependent, but Brefeldin A-independent, manner. We found that VAMP8 directly binds to and colocalizes with PtdIns(3)P. The inositol phosphatase activity of SopB is required for PtdIns(3)P and VAMP8 accumulation, while wortmannin, a specific phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor, has no effect. Knockdown of endogenous VAMP8 by small interfering RNA or expression of a truncated VAMP8 (1-79aa) reduces the invasion level of wild-type Salmonella to that of the phosphatase-deficient SopB(C460S) mutant. Our study demonstrates that Salmonella exploit host SNARE proteins and vesicle trafficking to promote bacterial entry.

Abstract
Perturbations in phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P2)-synthesizing enzymes result in enlarged endocytic organelles from yeast to humans, indicating evolutionarily conserved function of PtdIns(3,5)P2 in endosome-related events. This is reinforced by the structural and functional homology of yeast Vac14 and human Vac14 (ArPIKfyve), which activate yeast and mammalian PtdIns(3,5)P2-producing enzymes, Fab1 and PIKfyve, respectively. In yeast, PtdIns(3,5)P2-specific phosphatase, Fig4, in association with Vac14, turns over PtdIns(3,5)P2, but whether such a mechanism operates in mammalian cells and what the identity of mammalian Fig4 may be are unknown. Here we have identified and characterized Sac3, a Sac domain phosphatase, as the Fig4 mammalian counterpart. Endogenous Sac3, a widespread 97-kDa protein, formed a stable ternary complex with ArPIKfyve and PIKfyve. Concordantly, Sac3 cofractionated and colocalized with ArPIKfyve and PIKfyve. The intrinsic Sac3(WT) phosphatase activity preferably hydrolyzed PtdIns(3,5)P2 in vitro, although the other D5-phosphorylated polyphosphoinositides were also substrates. Ablation of endogenous Sac3 by short interfering RNAs elevated PtdIns(3,5)P2 in (32)P-labeled HEK293 cells. Ectopically expressed Sac3(WT) in COS cells colocalized with and dilated EEA1-positive endosomes, consistent with the PtdIns(3,5)P2 requirement in early endosome dynamics. In vitro reconstitution of carrier vesicle formation from donor early endosomes revealed a gain of function upon Sac3 loss, whereas PIKfyve or ArPIKfyve protein depletion produced a loss of function. These data demonstrate a coupling between the machinery for PtdIns(3,5)P2 synthesis and turnover achieved through a physical assembly of PIKfyve, ArPIKfyve, and Sac3. We suggest that the tight regulation in PtdIns(3,5)P2 homeostasis is mechanistically linked to early endosome dynamics in the course of cargo transport.

Abstract
Many tumors have chronically elevated activity of PI 3-kinase-dependent signaling pathways, caused largely by oncogenic mutation of PI 3-kinase itself or loss of the opposing tumor suppressor lipid phosphatase, PTEN. Several PI 3-kinase-dependent feedback mechanisms have been identified that may affect the sensitivity of upstream receptor signaling, but the events required to initiate an inhibited state have not been addressed. We show that in a variety of cell types, loss of PTEN via experimental knockdown or in tumor cell lines correlates with a block in insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1)/insulin signaling, without affecting the sensitivity of platelet-derived growth factor or epidermal growth factor signaling. These effects on IGF/insulin signaling include a reduction of up to five- to tenfold in IGF-stimulated PI 3-kinase activation, a failure to activate the ERK kinases and, in some cells, reduced expression of insulin receptor substrate 1, and both IGF1 and insulin receptors. These data indicate that chronically elevated PI 3-kinase-dependent signaling to the degree seen in many tumors causes a selective loss of sensitivity in IGF1/insulin signaling that could significantly reduce the selective advantage of deregulated activation of IGF1/IGF1-R signaling in tumor development.

Abstract
Using bovine heart sarcolemma vesicles we studied the effects of protons and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns-4,5-P2) on the affinity of the mammalian Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX1) for intracellular Ca(2+). By following the effects of extravesicular ligands in inside-out vesicles, their interactions with sites of NCX1 facing the intracellular medium were investigated. Two Na(+)-gradient-dependent fluxes were studied: Ca(2+) uptake and Ca(2+) release. PtdIns-4,5-P2 binding to NCX1 was investigated in parallel. Without MgATP (no 'de novo' synthesis of PtdIns-4,5-P2), alkalinization increased the affinity for Ca(2+) and the PtdIns-4,5-P2 bound to NCX1. Vesicles depleted of phosphoinositides were insensitive to alkalinization, but became responsive following addition of exogenous PtdIns-4,5-P2 or PtdIns plus MgATP. Acidification reduced the affinity for Ca(2+)(ev); this was only partially reversed by MgATP, despite the increase in bound PtdIns-4,5-P2 to levels observed with alkalinization. Inhibition of Ca(2+) uptake by increasing extravesicular [Na(+)] indicates that it is related to H(+)(i) and Na(+)(i) synergistic inhibition of the Ca(2+)(i) regulatory site. Therefore, the affinity of the NCX1 Ca(2+)(i) regulatory site for Ca(2+) was maximal when both intracellular alkalinization and an increase in PtdIns-4,5-P2 bound to NCX1 (not just of the total membrane PtdIns-4,5-P2) occurred simultaneously. In addition, protons influenced the distribution, or the exposure, of PtdIns-4,5-P2 molecules in the surroundings and/or on the exchanger protein.

Abstract
Insulin activates glucose transport by promoting translocation of the insulin-sensitive fat/muscle-specific glucose transporter GLUT4 from an intracellular storage compartment to the cell surface. Here we report that an optimal insulin effect on glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes is dependent upon expression of both PIKfyve, the sole enzyme for PtdIns 3,5-P(2) biosynthesis, and the PIKfyve activator, ArPIKfyve. Small-interfering RNAs that selectively ablated PIKfyve or ArPIKfyve in this cell type depleted the PtdIns 3,5-P(2) pool and reduced insulin-activated glucose uptake to a comparable degree. Combined loss of PIKfyve and ArPIKfyve caused further PtdIns 3,5-P(2) ablation that correlated with greater attenuation in insulin responsiveness. Loss of PIKfyve-ArPIKfyve reduced insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation and the cell surface accumulation of GLUT4 or IRAP, but not GLUT1-containing vesicles without affecting overall expression of these proteins. ArPIKfyve and PIKfyve were found to physically associate in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and this was insulin independent. In vitro labeling of membranes isolated from basal or insulin-stimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes documented substantial insulin-dependent increases of PtdIns 3,5-P(2) production on intracellular membranes. Together, the data demonstrate for the first time a physical association between functionally related PIKfyve and ArPIKfyve in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and indicate that the novel ArPIKfyve-PIKfyve-PtdIns 3,5-P(2) pathway is physiologically linked to insulin-activated GLUT4 translocation and glucose transport.

Abstract
The mechanisms that regulate endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit-site (ERES) assembly and COPII-mediated ER export are currently unknown. We analyzed the role of phosphatidylinositols (PtdIns) in regulating ER export. Utilizing pleckstrin homology domains and a PtdIns phosphatase to specifically sequester or reduce phosphorylated PtdIns levels, we found that PtdIns 4-phosphate (PtsIns4P) is required to promote COPII-mediated ER export. Biochemical and morphological in vitro analysis revealed dynamic and localized PtsIns4P formation at ERES. PtdIns4P was utilized to support Sar1-induced proliferation and constriction of ERES membranes. PtdIns4P also assisted in Sar1-induced COPII nucleation at ERES. Therefore, localized dynamic remodeling of PtdIns marks ERES membranes to regulate COPII-mediated ER export.

Abstract
Analyzing peroxisomal phosphoinositide (PId(#)) synthesis in highly purified rat liver peroxisomes we found synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P), PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and PtdIns(3,5)P(2). PtdIns3P was hardly detected in vitro, however, was observed in vivo after [(32)P]-phosphate labeling of primary rat hepatocytes. In comparison with other subcellular organelles peroxisomes revealed a unique PId pattern suggesting peroxisomal specificity of the observed synthesis. Use of phosphatase inhibitors enhanced the amount of PtdIns4P. The results obtained provide evidence that isolated rat liver peroxisomes synthesize PIds and suggest the association of PId 4-kinase and PId 5-kinase and PId 4-phosphatase activities with the peroxisomal membrane.

Abstract
Exogenous delivery of carrier-linked phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PtdIns(3)P] to adipocytes promotes the trafficking, but not the insertion, of the glucose transporter GLUT4 into the plasma membrane. However, it is yet to be demonstrated if endogenous PtdIns(3)P regulates GLUT4 trafficking and, in addition, the metabolic pathways mediating plasma membrane PtdIns(3)P synthesis are uncharacterized. In unstimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes, conditions under which PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 was not synthesized, ectopic expression of wild-type, but not catalytically inactive 72-kDa inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (72-5ptase), generated PtdIns(3)P at the plasma membrane. Immunoprecipitated 72-5ptase from adipocytes hydrolyzed PtdIns(3,5)P2, forming PtdIns(3)P. Overexpression of the 72-5ptase was used to functionally dissect the role of endogenous PtdIns(3)P in GLUT4 translocation and/or plasma membrane insertion. In unstimulated adipocytes wild type, but not catalytically inactive, 72-5ptase, promoted GLUT4 translocation and insertion into the plasma membrane but not glucose uptake. Overexpression of FLAG-2xFYVE/Hrs, which binds and sequesters PtdIns(3)P, blocked 72-5ptase-induced GLUT4 translocation. Actin monomer binding, using latrunculin A treatment, also blocked 72-5ptase-stimulated GLUT4 translocation. 72-5ptase expression promoted GLUT4 trafficking via a Rab11-dependent pathway but not by Rab5-mediated endocytosis. Therefore, endogenous PtdIns(3)P at the plasma membrane promotes GLUT4 translocation.

Abstract
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the G protein beta gamma subunits are essential for pheromone signaling. The Galpha subunit Gpa1 can also promote signaling, but the effectors in this pathway are not well characterized. To identify candidate Gpa1 effectors, we expressed the constitutively active Gpa1(Q323L) mutant in each of nearly 5000 gene-deletion strains and measured mating-specific responses. Our analysis reveals a requirement for both the catalytic (Vps34) and regulatory (Vps15) subunits of the sole phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase in yeast. We demonstrate that Gpa1 is present at endosomes, where it interacts directly with both Vps34 and Vps15 and stimulates increased production of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate. Notably, Vps15 binds to GDP-bound Gpa1 and is predicted to have a seven-WD repeat structure similar to that of known G protein beta subunits. These findings reveal two new components of the pheromone signaling pathway. More remarkably, these proteins appear to comprise a preformed effector-G beta subunit assembly and function at the endosome rather than at the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Perturbations in the intracellular PtdIns 3,5-P2pool or the downstream transmission of PtdIns 3,5-P2signals often result in a gradual development of gross morphological changes in the pleiomorphic multivesicular endosomes, culminating with the appearance of cytoplasmic vacuoles. To identify the onset of PtdIns 3,5-P2functional requirements along the endocytic system, in this study we characterized the morphological changes associated with early expression of the dominant-negative kinase-deficient form (K1831E) of the PtdIns 3,5-P2-producing kinase PIKfyve, before the formation of cytoplasmic vacuoles in transfected COS cells. Enlarged PIKfyveK1831E-positive vesicles co-localizing with dilated EEA1- and Rab5aWT-positive perinuclear endosomes were observed (WT, wild type). This was dependent on the presence of active forms of Rab5 and the generation of PtdIns 3-P-enriched platforms on early endosomess. Because PIKfyveWTdid not substantially colocalize with EEA1- or Rab5-positive endosomes in COS cells, the dynamic PIKfyve-catalyzed PtdIns 3-to-PtdIns 3,5-P2switch was suggested to drive away PIKfyveWTfrom early endosomes toward later compartments. Late endosomes/lysosomes marked by LAMP1 or Rab7 were dislocated from their typical perinuclear position upon PIKfyveK1831Eearly expression. Cytosols derived from cells stably expressing PIKfyveK1831Estimulated endosome fusion in vitro, whereas PIKfyveWT-enriched cytosols had the opposite effect, consistent with PtdIns 3,5-P2production negatively regulating the endosome fusion. Together, our data indicate that PtdIns 3,5-P2defines specific endosome platforms at the onset of the degradation pathway to regulate the complex process of membrane remodeling and dynamics.

Abstract
Class I PI3Ks, through the formation of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P(3)), are thought of as essential elements of the neutrophil response to chemotactic factors. Moreover, the recent development of PI3K-deficient mice and isoform-specific inhibitors enabled examinations of the contribution of the distinct PI3K isoforms in neutrophil activation. However, the results of these various studies are conflicting, and the exact role of the different PI3K isoforms is not yet clearly established, particularly in human cells. In the present study, we used a different approach to assess the role of the distinct PI3K isoforms in response to the chemotactic agent fMLP. We inhibited PI3K activities by the transient expression following nucleofection of dominant negative mutants of either p85alpha or p110gamma in the human myeloid cell line PLB-985, which can be induced to express a neutrophil-like phenotype. The data obtained with this approach showed that the production of PI(3,4,5)P(3) triggered by fMLP is biphasic, with a peak of production observed in a short time period that entirely depends on p110gamma activity, and a delayed phase that is mediated by class I(A) PI3K. We also provide evidence that the PI3K-dependent functional responses (i.e., superoxide production and chemotaxis) induced by the chemotactic factor mainly involve PI3K I(A) and, by implication, the delayed phase of PI(3,4,5)P(3) production, whereas p110gamma and the early peak of PI(3,4,5)P(3) do not play major roles in the initiation or the control of these responses.

Abstract
Autophagy is a newly recognized innate and adaptive immunity defense against intracellular pathogens, in keeping with its role as a cytoplasmic maintenance pathway. Induction of autophagy by physiological, pharmacological or immunological means can eliminate intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis, providing one of the first examples of the immunological role of autophagy. Under normal circumstances, M. Tuberculosis survives in macrophages by inhibiting phagolysosome biogenesis. Induction of autophagy overcomes the mycobacterial phagosome maturation block, and delivers the tubercle bacilli to degradative compartments where they are eliminated.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3)) is linked to a variety of cellular functions, such as growth, cell survival, and differentiation. Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3) is primarily synthesized by class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases and its hydrolysis by two 3-phosphoinositide 3-phosphatases, PTEN and SHIP proteins, leads to the production of two other second messengers, Ptdlns(4,5)P(2) and Ptdlns(3,4)P(2), respectively. Evidence accumulated over the last years strongly suggest that Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3) is an important component of signaling pathway operating within the nucleus. Moreover, recent advances indicated that nuclear translocation of cell surface receptors could activate nuclear phosphoinositide 3-kinase suggesting a new mode of signal transduction. The aim of this review is intended to summarize the state of our knowledge on nuclear Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3) and its metabolizing enzymes, and to highlight the emerging roles for intranuclear Ptdlns(3,4,5)P(3).

Abstract
Artocarpol A (ART), a natural product isolated from Artocarpus rigida, stimulated superoxide anion (O2*-) generation, which was inhibited by 2-(4-morpholinyl)-8-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (LY 294002), a phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, in rat neutrophils. ART stimulated phosphorylation of protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) on both T308 and S473 residues, and LY 294002 inhibited these effects. Rat neutrophils expressed both class IA PI3K subunits (p85, p110alpha, p110beta, and p110delta) and a class IB PI3K subunit (p110gamma) as assessed by a combination of Western blotting and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) approaches. Stimulation of neutrophils with ART evoked phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) formation, which reached a maximal level at 2 min and was attenuated by LY 294002, as evidenced by immunofluorescence microscopy and by flow cytometry. Detectable membrane-association of class IA PI3Ks, class IB PI3K and Ras was seen as early as 1.5, 0.5 and 1.5 min, respectively, after stimulation with ART. The kinetics of ART-induced Ras activation paralleled the kinetics of class IA PI3Ks recruitment to membrane caused by ART, and the p85 and p110gamma immunoprecipitates contain Ras. ART stimulated Src family kinase activation, which was detectable within 1.5 min of incubation with ART. Both Src kinase activity and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 formation in ART-stimulated neutrophils were inhibited by 4-amino-1-tert-butyl-3-(1'-naphthyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (PP1 analog). PP1 analog also attenuated the ART-stimulated O2*- generation in rat neutrophils. These results indicate that the stimulation of respiratory burst by ART in neutrophils implicates PI3K signaling.

Abstract
In neutrophils, superoxide anion production generally accompanies chemotaxis and functions in killing invading pathogens. The GIT2 GTPase-activating protein binds to the guanine nucleotide-exchange factor alphaPIX. Here we show that GIT2 was necessary for directional chemotaxis and for the suppression of superoxide production in G protein-coupled receptor-stimulated neutrophils. GIT2 was also necessary for the orientation of superoxide production toward chemoattractant sources. GIT2 suppressed the activity of ADP ribosylation factor 1 and was a component of the Gbetagamma subunit-mediated direction-sensing machinery 'downstream' of G protein-coupled receptor signaling. This study establishes a function for GIT2 in linking chemotaxis and superoxide production in neutrophils and shows that loss of GIT2 in vivo leads to an immunodeficient state.

Abstract
The chemokine, stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) is a crucial regulator of stem cell homing and tethering, and potentiation of this pathway in leukaemias may contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease. A key second messenger in SDF-1 signal/response coupling is phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3]. SDF-1 elevated PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels markedly in the multipotent FDCP-mix stem cell line. Similarly, transfection with BCR/ABL or TEL/PDGFRbeta leukaemogenic tyrosine kinases chronically elevated PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels. However, whilst an SDF-1 chemotactic response was observed in TEL/PDGFRbeta-transfected cells, in BCR/ABL cells this was markedly decreased, which was not due to Ras-pathway activation. Thus, multipotent cells can respond to SDF-1, despite chronic increases in this second messenger indicating that a discrete pool of SDF-1-stimulated PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 production drives the chemotactic response. To discern the mechanism for the differential effects of these oncogenes we considered subcellular localisation. As TEL/PDGFRbeta has a cytosolic location whilst BCR/ABL associates with actin, we removed the actin-binding domain from BCR/ABL. We observed relocation of BCR/ABL to the cytosol and increased SDF-1 responses. We conclude that the localisation of BCR/ABL to the cytoskeleton is essential for effects on motility and moderating SDF-1 responses is not essential in tyrosine kinase-mediated leukaemic transformation.

Abstract
Weak organic acids are used as food preservatives to inhibit the growth of spoilage yeasts, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Long-term adaptation to weak acids requires the increased expression of the ATP-binding cassette transporter Pdr12p, which catalyses the active efflux of the weak acids from the cytosol; however, very little is known about the signalling events immediately following application of weak acid stress. We have investigated the effects of weak acids on two stress-responsive signalling molecules, PtdIns(3,5)P2 and PtdIns(4,5)P2, which in S. cerevisiae are synthesized by Fab1p and Mss4p respectively. At low extracellular pH, benzoic acid, sorbic acid and acetic acid all cause a transient reduction in PtdIns(3,5)P2 accumulation and a more persistent rise in PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels. The increase in PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels is accompanied by a reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. However, changes in PtdInsP2 levels are independent of weak acid-induced Pdr12p expression. In contrast, changing the extracellular medium to alkaline pH provokes a prolonged and substantial rise in PtdIns(3,5)P2 levels. As PtdIns(3,5)P2 synthesis is required for correct vacuole acidification, it is possible that levels of this molecule are modulated to maintain intracellular pH homoeostasis in response to weak acid and alkali stresses. In conclusion, we have expanded the repertoire of stress responses that affect PtdInsP2 levels to include weak acid and alkali stresses.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-signaling lipids function in diverse cellular pathways. Dynamic changes in the levels of these signaling lipids regulate multiple processes. In particular, when Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells are exposed to hyperosmotic shock, PI3,5P2 (phosphatidylinositol [PI] 3,5-bisphosphate) levels transiently increase 20-fold. This causes the vacuole to undergo multiple acute changes. Control of PI3,5P2 levels occurs through regulation of both its synthesis and turnover. Synthesis is catalyzed by the PI3P 5-kinase Fab1p, and turnover is catalyzed by the PI3,5P2 5-phosphatase Fig4p. In this study, we show that two putative Fab1p activators, Vac7p and Vac14p, independently regulate Fab1p activity. Although Vac7p only regulates Fab1p, surprisingly, we find that Vac14 regulates both Fab1p and Fig4p. Moreover, Fig4p itself functions in both PI3,5P2 synthesis and turnover. In both the absence and presence of Vac7p, the Vac14p-Fig4p complex controls the hyperosmotic shock-induced increase in PI3,5P2 levels. These findings suggest that the dynamic changes in PI3,5P2 are controlled through a tight coupling of synthesis and turnover.

Abstract
Migrating cells need to make different actin assemblies at the cell's leading and trailing edges and to maintain physical separation of signals for these assemblies. This asymmetric control of activities represents one important form of cell polarity. There are significant gaps in our understanding of the components involved in generating and maintaining polarity during chemotaxis. Here we characterize a family of complexes (which we term leading edge complexes), scaffolded by hematopoietic protein 1 (Hem-1), that organize the neutrophil's leading edge. The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family Verprolin-homologous protein (WAVE)2 complex, which mediates activation of actin polymerization by Rac, is only one member of this family. A subset of these leading edge complexes are biochemically separable from the WAVE2 complex and contain a diverse set of potential polarity-regulating proteins. RNA interference-mediated knockdown of Hem-1-containing complexes in neutrophil-like cells: (a) dramatically impairs attractant-induced actin polymerization, polarity, and chemotaxis; (b) substantially weakens Rac activation and phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)-tris-phosphate production, disrupting the (phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)-tris-phosphate)/Rac/F-actin-mediated feedback circuit that organizes the leading edge; and (c) prevents exclusion of activated myosin from the leading edge, perhaps by misregulating leading edge complexes that contain inhibitors of the Rho-actomyosin pathway. Taken together, these observations show that versatile Hem-1-containing complexes coordinate diverse regulatory signals at the leading edge of polarized neutrophils, including but not confined to those involving WAVE2-dependent actin polymerization.

Abstract
PLD (phospholipase D) activity catalyses the generation of the lipid messenger phosphatidic acid, which has been implicated in a number of cellular processes, particularly the regulation of membrane traffic. In the present study, we report that disruption of PLD signalling causes unexpectedly profound effects on the actin-based motility of Dictyostelium. Cells in which PLD activity is inhibited by butan-1-ol show a complete loss of actin-based structures, accompanied by relocalization of F-actin into small clusters, and eventually the nucleus, without a visible fall in levels of F-actin. Addition of exogenous phosphatidic acid reverses the effects of butan-1-ol, confirming that these effects are caused by inhibition of PLD. Loss of motility correlates with complete inhibition of endocytosis and a reduction in phagocytosis. Inhibition of PLD caused a major decrease in the synthesis of PtdIns(4,5)P2, which could again be reversed by exogenously applied phosphatidic acid. Thus the essential role of PLD signalling in both motility and endocytosis appears to be mediated directly via regulation of PtdIns(4)P kinase activity. This implies that localized PLD-regulated synthesis of PtdIns(4,5)P2 is essential for Dictyostelium actin function.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PI) are important signaling molecules involved in the regulation of vesicular trafficking. We found that phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2)] increase the secretory response triggered by 10 mum Ca(2+) in streptolysin-O-permeabilized insulin-secreting INS-1E cells. In addition, nutrient-induced exocytosis was diminished in intact cells expressing constructs that sequester PI(4,5)P(2) and in cells transfected with constructs that reduce by RNA interference the level of two enzymes involved in PI(4,5)P(2) production, type III PI4-kinase beta and type I phosphatidylinositol 4-bisphosphate 5-kinase-gamma. To clarify the mechanism of action of PI, we investigated the involvement in the regulation of insulin exocytosis of three potential PI targets, phospholipase D1, the Ca(2+)-dependent activator protein for secretion 1, and Munc18-interacting protein 1. Transfection of insulin-secreting cells with plasmids that direct the synthesis of small interfering RNAs capable of reducing the endogenous levels of these proteins inhibited hormone release elicited by glucose- and cAMP-elevating agents without affecting basal release. Our data indicate that the production of PI(4,5)P(2) is necessary for proper control of beta-cell secretion and suggest that at least part of the effect of PI on insulin exocytosis could be exerted through the activation of phospholipase D1, Ca(2+)-dependent activator protein for secretion 1, and Munc18-interacting protein 1.

Abstract
Several pleckstrin-homology (PH) domains with the ability to bind phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, PIP3] were expressed as green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion proteins to determine their effects on various cellular responses known to be activated by PIP3. These proteins comprised the PH domains of Akt, ARNO, Btk or GRP1, and were found to show growth-factor-stimulated and wortmannin-sensitive translocation from the cytosol to the plasma membrane in several cell types, indicating their ability to recognize PIP3. Remarkably, although overexpressed Akt-PH–GFP and Btk-PH–GFP were quite potent in antagonizing the PIP3-mediated activation of the Akt protein kinase, such inhibition was not observed with the other PH domains. By contrast, expression of the PH domains of GRP1 and ARNO, but not of Akt or Btk, inhibited the attachment and spreading of freshly seeded cells to culture dishes. Activation of PLCγ by epidermal growth factor (EGF) was attenuated by the PH domains of GRP1, ARNO and Akt, but was significantly enhanced by the Btk PH domain. By following the kinetics of expression of the various GFP-fused PH domains for several days, only the PH domain of Akt showed a lipid-binding-dependent self-elimination, consistent with its interference with the anti-apoptotic Akt signaling pathway. Mutations of selective residues that do not directly participate in PIP3 binding in the GRP1-PH and Akt-PH domain were able to reduce the dominant-negative effects of these constructs yet retain their lipid binding. These data suggest that interaction with and sequestration of PIP3 may not be the sole mechanism by which PH domains interfere with cellular responses and that their interaction with other membrane components, most probably with proteins, allows a more specific participation in the regulation of specific signaling pathways.

Abstract
This work tested the theory that neuronal calcium sensor-1 (NCS-1) has effects on neurotransmitter release beyond its actions on membrane channels. We used nerve-ending preparations where membrane channels are bypassed through membrane permeabilization made by mechanical disruption or streptolysin-O. Nerve ending NCS-1 and phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PI4K) are largely or entirely particulate, so their concentrations in nerve endings remain constant after breaching the membrane. Exogenous, myristoylated NCS-1 stimulated nerve ending phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate [PI(4)P] synthesis, but non-myristoylated-NCS-1 did not. The N-terminal peptide of NCS-1 interfered with PI(4)P synthesis, and with spontaneous and Ca(2+)-evoked release of both [(3)H]-norepinephrine (NA) and [(14)C]-glutamate (glu) in a concentration-dependent manner. An antibody raised against the N-terminal of NCS-1 inhibited perforated nerve ending PI(4)P synthesis, but the C-terminal antibody had no effects. Antibodies against the N- and C-termini of NCS-1 caused significant increases in mini/spontaneous/stimulation-independent release of [(3)H]-NA from perforated nerve endings, but had no effect on [(14)C]-glu release. These results support the idea that NCS-1 facilitates nerve ending neurotransmitter release and phosphoinositide production via PI4K and localizes these effects to the N-terminal of NCS-1. Combined with previous work on the regulation of channels by NCS-1, the data are consistent with the hypothesis that a NCS-1-PI4K (NP, neuropotentiator) complex may serve as an essential linker between lipid and protein metabolism to regulate membrane traffic and co-ordinate it with ion fluxes and plasticity in the nerve ending.

Abstract
Stimulation of cells with various peptide growth factors induces the production of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) through activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. The action of this enzyme is reversed by that of the tumor suppressor PTEN. With the use of cells overexpressing NADPH oxidase 1 or peroxiredoxin II, we have now shown that H2O2 produced in response to stimulation of cells with epidermal growth factor or platelet-derived growth factor potentiates PIP3 generation and activation of the protein kinase Akt induced by these growth factors. We also show that a small fraction of PTEN molecules is transiently inactivated as a result of oxidation of the essential cysteine residue of this phosphatase in various cell types stimulated with epidermal growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, or insulin. These results suggest that the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase by growth factors might not be sufficient to induce the accumulation of PIP3 because of the opposing activity of PTEN and that the concomitant local inactivation of PTEN by H2O2 might be needed to increase the concentration of PIP3 sufficiently to trigger downstream signaling events. Furthermore, together with previous observations, our data indicate that peroxiredoxin likely participates in PIP3 signaling by modulating the local concentration of H2O2.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) has an important function in cell regulation both as a precursor of second messenger molecules and by means of its direct interactions with cytosolic and membrane proteins. Biochemical studies have suggested a role for PtdIns(4,5)P2 in clathrin coat dynamics, and defects in its dephosphorylation at the synapse produce an accumulation of coated endocytic intermediates. However, the involvement of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in synaptic vesicle exocytosis remains unclear. Here, we show that decreased levels of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the brain and an impairment of its depolarization-dependent synthesis in nerve terminals lead to early postnatal lethality and synaptic defects in mice. These include decreased frequency of miniature currents, enhanced synaptic depression, a smaller readily releasable pool of vesicles, delayed endocytosis and slower recycling kinetics. Our results demonstrate a critical role for PtdIns(4,5)P2 synthesis in the regulation of multiple steps of the synaptic vesicle cycle.

Abstract
The mammalian tumor suppressor, phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), inhibits cell growth and survival by dephosphorylating phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PI[3,4,5]P3). We have found a homologue of PTEN in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe (ptn1). This was an unexpected finding because yeast (S. pombe and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) lack the class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases that generate PI(3,4,5)P3 in higher eukaryotes. Indeed, PI(3,4,5)P3 has not been detected in yeast. Surprisingly, upon deletion of ptn1 in S. pombe, PI(3,4,5)P3 became detectable at levels comparable to those in mammalian cells, indicating that a pathway exists for synthesis of this lipid and that the S. pombe ptn1, like mammalian PTEN, suppresses PI(3,4,5)P3 levels. By examining various mutants, we show that synthesis of PI(3,4,5)P3 in S. pombe requires the class III phosphoinositide 3-kinase, vps34p, and the phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase, its3p, but does not require the phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate 5-kinase, fab1p. These studies suggest that a pathway for PI(3,4,5)P3 synthesis downstream of a class III phosphoinositide 3-kinase evolved before the appearance of class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases.

Abstract
The directionality control in chemotaxis is the result of a reciprocal regulation of PI3-kinase and PTEN subcellular localization. MK2(-/-) neutrophils have a directionality loss in fMLP-induced chemotaxis. We found that in polarized WT neutrophils PTEN was localized in the uropod region. However, MK2(-/-) neutrophils or p38 MAPK inhibitor-SB203580-pretreated WT neutrophils showed a disrupted PTEN subcellular localization. Some PTEN was localized at the leading edge of the polarized neutrophils, which may lower the concentration of PI3-kinase lipid product PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 required for directionality sensing. FMLP-stimulated MK2(-/-) neutrophils or SB203580-pretreated WT neutrophils also had disrupted F-actin polarization. F-actin polymerization inhibitor lantrunculin-B disrupted the polarization of PTEN, but not PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. The results suggest that PTEN uropod polarization is F-actin polymerization-dependent and may be through the effect of MK2 on F-actin polarization.

Abstract
Sec14p homology domains are found in a large number of proteins from plants, yeast, invertebrates, and higher eukaryotes. We report that the N-terminal Sec14p homology domain of the human protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP-MEG2 binds phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)) in vitro and colocalizes with this lipid on secretory vesicle membranes in intact cells. Point mutations that prevented PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) binding abrogated the capacity of PTP-MEG2 to induce homotypic secretory vesicle fusion in cells. Inhibition of cellular PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis also rapidly reversed the effect of PTP-MEG2 on secretory vesicles. Finally, we show that several different phosphoinositide kinases colocalize with PTP-MEG2, thus allowing for local synthesis of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) in secretory vesicle membranes. We suggest that PTP-MEG2 through its Sec14p homology domain couples inositide phosphorylation to tyrosine dephosphorylation and the regulation of intracellular traffic of the secretory pathway in T cells.

Abstract
MTM1, the gene encoding myotubularin (MTM1), is mutated in the X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM), a severe genetic muscular disorder. MTM1 is a phosphoinositide phosphatase hydrolyzing phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) in yeast and in vitro. Because this lipid is implicated in the regulation of vesicular trafficking, we used established cell lines from XLMTM patients to evaluate whether the lack of endogenous MTM1 expression could affect PtdIns(3)P labeling patterns. Our results showed that the vesicular trafficking related to early endosomes was not significantly affected in the XLMTM cell lines compared with control cells. However, in addition to PtdIns(3)P, we found that MTM1 can hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate both in vitro and in mammalian cells. Using a mass assay, we demonstrated that the product generated is phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate (PtdIns(5)P), a recently discovered phosphoinositide, the function of which is still unknown. In L6 myotubes overexpressing MTM1, hyperosmotic shock induced an increase in the mass level of PtdIns(5)P that was reduced by 50% upon overexpression of the MTM1 inactive mutant D278A. These data demonstrate for the first time a role for MTM1 in the production of PtdIns(5)P in mammalian cells, suggesting that the lack of transformation of phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate into PtdIns(5)P might be an important component in the etiology of myotubular myopathy.

Abstract
Pollen tube cell volume changes rapidly in response to perturbation of the extracellular osmotic potential. This report shows that specific phospholipid signals are differentially stimulated or attenuated during osmotic perturbations. Hypo-osmotic stress induces rapid increases in phosphatidic acid (PA). This response occurs starting at the addition of 25% (v/v) water to the pollen tube cultures and peaks at 100% (v/v) water. Increased levels of PA were detected within 30 s and reached maximum by 15 to 30 min after treatment. The pollen tube apical region undergoes a 46% increase in cell volume after addition of 100% water (v/v), and there is an average 7-fold increase in PA. This PA increase appears to be generated by phospholipase D because concurrent transphosphatidylation of n-butanol results in an average 8-fold increase in phosphatidylbutanol. Hypo-osmotic stress also induces an average 2-fold decrease in phosphatidylinositol phosphate; however, there are no detectable changes in the levels of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphates. In contrast, salt-induced hyperosmotic stress from 50 to 400 mm NaCl inhibits phospholipase D activity, reduces the levels of PA, and induces increases in the levels of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate isomers. The pollen tube apical region undergoes a 41% decrease in cell volume at 400 mm NaCl, and there is an average 2-fold increase in phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate and 1.4-fold increase in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. The phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate increase is detected within 30 s and reaches maximum by 15 to 30 min after treatment. In summary, these results demonstrate that hypo-osmotic versus hyperosmotic perturbation and the resultant cell swelling or shrinking differentially activate specific phospholipid signaling pathways in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) pollen tubes.

Abstract
The seven known polyphosphoinositides have been implicated in a wide range of regulated and constitutive cell functions, including cell-surface signalling, vesicle trafficking and cytoskeletal reorganization. In order to understand the spatial and temporal control of these diverse cell functions it is necessary to characterize the subcellular distribution of a wide variety of polyphosphoinositide synthesis and signalling events. The predominant phosphatidylinositol kinase activity in many mammalian cell types involves the synthesis of the signalling precursor, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, in a reaction catalysed by the recently cloned PI4KIIalpha (type IIalpha phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase). However the regulation of this enzyme and the cellular distribution of its product in different organelles are very poorly understood. This report identifies the existence, in unstimulated cells, of two major subcellular membrane fractions, which contain PI4KIIalpha possessing different levels of intrinsic activity. Separation of these membranes from each other and from contaminating activities was achieved by density gradient ultracentrifugation at pH 11 in a specific detergent mixture in which both membrane fractions, but not other membranes, were insoluble. Kinetic comparison of the purified membrane fractions revealed a 4-fold difference in K (m) for phosphatidylinositol and a 3.5-fold difference in V (max), thereby indicating a different mechanism of regulation to that described previously for agonist-stimulated cells. These marked differences in basal activity and the occurrence of this isozyme in multiple organelles emphasize the need to investigate cell signalling via PI4KIIalpha at the level of individual organelles rather than whole-cell lysates.
