Project description:Many neutrophil functions are regulated by phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) that mediates protein membrane translocation via binding to pleckstrin homolog (PH) domains within target proteins. Here we show that inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4), a cytosolic small molecule, bound the same PH domain of target proteins and competed for binding to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. In neutrophils, chemoattractant stimulation triggered rapid elevation in Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 concentration. Depletion of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 by deleting the gene encoding InsP3KB, which converts Ins(1,4,5)P3 to Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, enhanced membrane translocation of the PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-specific PH domain. This led to enhanced sensitivity to chemoattractant stimulation, elevated superoxide production, and enhanced neutrophil recruitment to inflamed peritoneal cavity. On the contrary, augmentation of intracellular Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 concentration blocked PH domain-mediated membrane translocation of target proteins and dramatically decreased the sensitivity of neutrophils to chemoattractant stimulation. These findings establish a role for Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 in cellular signal transduction pathways and provide another mechanism for modulating PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 signaling in neutrophils.

Project description:When [3H]inositol-prelabelled rat parotid-gland slices were stimulated with carbachol, noradrenaline or Substance P, the major inositol trisphosphate produced with prolonged exposure to agonists was, in each case, inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. Much lower amounts of radioactivity were present in the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate fraction separated by anion-exchange h.p.l.c. Analysis of the inositol trisphosphate head group of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate in [32P]Pi-labelled parotid glands showed the presence of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, but no detectable phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate. Carbachol-stimulated [3H]inositol-labelled parotid glands contained an inositol polyphosphate with the chromatographic properties and electrophoretic mobility of an inositol tetrakisphosphate, the probable structure of which was determined to be inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. Since an enzyme in erythrocyte membranes is capable of degrading this tetrakisphosphate to inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate, it is suggested to be the precursor of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate in parotid glands.

Project description:1. The properties of specific Ins(1,4,5)P3- and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-binding sites have been compared in a crude 'P2' cerebellar membrane fraction. 2. A homogeneous population of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding sites was present (KD 23.1 +/- 3.6 nM) at high density (Bmax. 11.9 +/- 1.8 pmol/mg of protein); whereas data obtained for [32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 specific binding were best fitted to a two-site model, the high-affinity binding component (KD 2.6 +/- 0.7 nM) constituted 64.2 +/- 4.3% of the total population and was present at relatively low density (Bmax. 187 +/- 27 fmol/mg of protein). 3. The two high-affinity inositol polyphosphate-binding sites exhibited markedly different pH optima for radioligand binding, allowing the two sites to be independently investigated. At pH 8.0, [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding was maximal, whereas [32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 specific binding was very low; conversely, at pH 5.0, [32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 binding was maximal, whereas [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding was undetectably low. 4. Both inositol polyphosphate-binding sites exhibited marked positional and stereo-specificity. Of the analogues studied, only phosphorothioate substitution to form inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphorothioate was tolerated at the Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding site, with only a 2-3-fold loss of binding activity. Addition of a glyceroyl moiety at the 1-phosphate position or addition of further phosphate substituents at the 3- or 6-positions caused dramatic losses in displacing activity. Similarly, complete phosphorothioate substitution of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 caused an approx. 6-fold loss of binding activity at the [32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-binding site, whereas Ins(1,4,5,6)P4, Ins(1,3,4,6)P4, Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 were bound at least 100-fold weaker at this site. Therefore, only the phosphorothioate derivatives retained high affinity and selectivity for the two inositol polyphosphate-binding sites. 5. Heparin and pentosan polysulphate were potent but non-selective inhibitors at Ins(1,4,5)P3- and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-binding sites. N-Desulphation (with or without N-reacetylation) of heparin decreased inhibitory activity at the Ins(1,4,5)P3-, but not at the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-binding site; however, the selectivity of this effect was only about 4-fold. O- and N-desulphated N-reacetylated heparin was essentially inactive at both sites. 6. The results are discussed with respect to the separate identities of the inositol polyphosphate-binding sites.

Project description:Addition of 1 mM-carbachol to [3H]inositol-labelled rat parotid slices stimulated rapid formation of [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, the accumulation of which reached a peak 20 s after stimulation, and then declined rapidly towards a new steady state. The initial rate of formation of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate was slower than that for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. The radioactivity in [3H]inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate fell quickly in carbachol-stimulated and then atropine-blocked parotid slices, suggesting that it is rapidly metabolized during stimulation. Parotid homogenates rapidly dephosphorylated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate and, less rapidly, inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate was specifically hydrolysed to a compound with the chromatographic properties of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. The only 3H-labelled phospholipids that we could detect in parotid slices labelled with [3H]inositol for 90 min were phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. Parotid homogenates synthesized inositol tetrakisphosphate from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. This activity was dependent on the presence of ATP. We suggest that, during carbachol stimulation of parotid slices, the key event in inositol lipid metabolism is the activation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate thus liberated is metabolized in two distinct ways; by direct hydrolysis of the 5-phosphate to form inositol 1,4-bisphosphate and by phosphorylation to form inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate and hence, by hydrolysis of this tetrakisphosphate, to form inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate.

Project description:The influence of highly phosphorylated inositol phosphates on the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase enriched from the soluble fraction of pig brain was tested, using [5-32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 as substrate. Both Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 were very potent inhibitors of the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase. The Ki values were approximately 60 nM and approximately 3 nM for Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 respectively. Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 also inhibited the Ins(1,4,5)P3/Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 5-phosphatase. Using Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 as substrate, the Ki values were about 35 microM and 15 microM for Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 respectively. The concentrations which led to a 50% inhibition of Ins(1,4,5)P3 (0.5 microM) degradation by the 5-phosphatase were about 20 and 10 microM for the pentakis- and hexakis-phosphate respectively. As the intracellular concentrations of Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and InsP6 are high (up to 60 microM) compared with those of the inositol trisphosphates and tetrakisphosphates, it is possible that the highly phosphorylated inositol phosphates act as regulators in the metabolism of Ca(2+)-mobilizing inositol phosphates.

Project description:Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4] analogues were synthesized and their effects on [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 5-phosphatase, [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase and [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3] 5-phosphatase activities were examined. The Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 analogue with the aminobenzoyl group at the 2-position of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 inhibited the hydrolysis of 5-phosphate of [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 catalysed by erythrocyte ghosts, with a lower Ki value than seen with Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, whereas the analogue with the aminocyclohexanecarbonyl group at the same position had a higher Ki value. The Ins(1,4,5)P3 analogues that we had previously synthesized were also capable of inhibiting this process, with the same tendency as Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 analogues. Such differences in the potency among Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,4,5)P3 analogues were applicable to other phosphatase activities, namely [3H]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 3-phosphatase and [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase. These results suggest that the active sites of these enzymes may catalyse the dephosphorylation in a similar fashion.

Project description:Human erythrocyte membranes metabolize inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4] to inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3] in the presence of Mg2+. In the absence of Mg2+ a less rapid conversion of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 into Ins(1,4,5)P3 was revealed. Such an enzyme activity, if present in hormonally sensitive cells, could provide a mechanism for maintaining constant concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, important for stimulation of Ca2+ entry after Ca2+ mobilization.

Project description:L1210 lymphoma cells were permeabilized with digitonin, and the ability of Ins(2,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to mobilize intracellular Ca2+ was studied. At high doses of Ins(2,4,5)P3 Ca2+ was rapidly released from intracellular stores, and prior or subsequent addition of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 had no discernible effect. However, the Ca2(+)-mobilizing action of low (threshold or just above) concentrations of Ins(2,4,5)P3 was markedly enhanced by Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, which alone caused no mobilization of Ca2+; this phenomenon was shown not to be due to protection of Ins(2,4,5)P3 by the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 against hydrolysis. The ability of the pre-addition of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to enhance subsequent Ins(2,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ mobilization was always seen whether or not the free Ca2+ concentration was low (pCa = 7) or high (pCa = 6). However, at low Ca2+, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 could cause a further mobilization if added after the Ins(2,4,5)P3, whereas at higher Ca2+ values Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was only able to affect Ca2+ if added before Ins(2,4,5)P3. These effects of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 were not, at the same concentration, mimicked by a random mixture of InsP4 isomers obtained by partial acid hydrolysis of phytic acid, by Ins(1,3,4)P3 or by Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, and they were shown not to be due to enzymic generation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 from Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 by (a) the absence of any detectable production of Ins(1,4,5)P3 if radiolabelled Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was used, or (b) the observation that Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 could mimic Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 provided that higher doses were used; this inositol phosphate, when added radiolabelled, yielded only trace quantities of D/L-Ins(1,4,5,6)P4, which itself does not mobilize Ca2+. We interpret these results overall to mean that in these cells there is a small proportion of the Ins(2,4,5)P3-mobilizable Ca2+ pools which can only be mobilized in the presence of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 [or at the least, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 can help Ins(2,4,5)P3 to gain access to them]. The significance of this conclusion is discussed in the light of current concepts of the second messenger function of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4.

Project description:The two inositol phosphate-binding proteins, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 (InsP3) and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (InsP4) receptors, and the two particulate InsP3-metabolizing enzymes, InsP3 5-phosphatase and InsP3 3-kinase, were solubilized with detergent from rat cerebellar membranes. These four activities are shown to be distinct molecular species by separation using a variety of protein chromatographic steps. The pharmacology of the partially purified InsP4-binding site indicates that the binding has a high affinity and selectivity for InsP4 over InsP3. These results suggest the existence of a distinct specific InsP4-binding protein which may represent the receptor for this putative second messenger.

Project description:The enzyme inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate 5/6-kinase (ITPK1) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the formation of higher phosphorylated forms of inositol in mammalian cells. Because it sits at a key regulatory point in the inositol metabolic pathway, its activity is likely to be regulated. We have previously shown that ITPK1 is phosphorylated, a posttranslational modification used by cells to regulate enzyme activity. We show here that ITPK1 is modified by acetylation of internal lysine residues. The acetylation sites, as determined by mass spectrometry, were found to be lysines 340, 383, and 410, which are all located on the surface of this protein. Overexpression of the acetyltransferases CREB-binding protein or p300 resulted in the acetylation of ITPK1, whereas overexpression of mammalian silent information regulator 2 resulted in the deacetylation of ITPK1. Functionally, ITPK1 acetylation regulates its stability. CREB-binding protein dramatically decreased the half-life of ITPK1. We further found that ITPK1 acetylation down-regulated its enzyme activity. HEK293 cells stably expressing acetylated ITPK1 had reduced levels of the higher phosphorylated forms of inositol, compared with the levels seen in cells expressing unacetylated ITPK1. These results demonstrate that lysine acetylation alters both the stability as well as the activity of ITPK1 in cells.
