Abstract
Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) is a key enzyme in phosphoinositide turnover and is involved in a variety of physiological functions. We analyzed PLCdelta1 knockout mice and found that PLCdelta1 is required for the maintenance of skin homeostasis. However, there were no remarkable abnormalities except hair loss and runting in PLCdelta1 knockout mice, even though PLCdelta1 is broadly distributed. Here, we report that mice lacking both PLCdelta1 and PLCdelta3 died at embryonic day 11.5 (E11.5) to E13.5. PLCdelta1/PLCdelta3 double-knockout mice exhibited severe disruption of the normal labyrinth architecture in the placenta and decreased placental vascularization, as well as abnormal proliferation and apoptosis of trophoblasts in the labyrinth area. Furthermore, PLCdelta1/PLCdelta3 double-knockout embryos supplied with a normal placenta by the tetraploid aggregation method survived beyond E14.5, clearly indicating that the embryonic lethality is caused by a defect in trophoblasts. On the basis of these results, we conclude that PLCdelta1 and PLCdelta3 are essential in trophoblasts for placental development.

Abstract
Phospholipase C (PLC) regulates various cellular processes by catalyzing the formation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol from phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Here, we have investigated the influence of Ca2+ on receptor-triggered PLC activity in individual insulin-secreting β-cells. Evanescent wave microscopy was used to record PLC activity using green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged PIP2/IP3-binding pleckstrin homology domain from PLCδ1, and the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was simultaneously measured using the indicator Fura Red. Stimulation of MIN6 β-cells with the muscarinic-receptor agonist carbachol induced rapid and sustained PLC activation. By contrast, only transient activation was observed after stimulation in the absence of extracellular Ca2+ or in the presence of the non-selective Ca2+ channel inhibitor La3+. The Ca2+-dependent sustained phase of PLC activity did not require voltage-gated Ca2+ influx, as hyperpolarization with diazoxide or direct Ca2+ channel blockade with nifedipine had no effect. Instead, the sustained PLC activity was markedly suppressed by the store-operated channel inhibitors 2-APB and SKF96365. Depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores with the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitors thapsigargin or cyclopiazonic acid abolished Ca2+ mobilization in response to carbachol, and strongly suppressed the PLC activation in Ca2+-deficient medium. Analogous suppressions were observed after loading cells with the Ca2+ chelator BAPTA. Stimulation of primary mouse pancreatic β-cells with glucagon elicited pronounced [Ca2+]i spikes, reflecting protein kinase A-mediated activation of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release via IP3 receptors. These [Ca2+]i spikes were found to evoke rapid and transient activation of PLC. Our data indicate that receptor-triggered PLC activity is enhanced by positive feedback from Ca2+ entering the cytoplasm from intracellular stores and via store-operated channels in the plasma membrane. Such amplification of receptor signalling should be important in the regulation of insulin secretion by hormones and neurotransmitters.

Abstract
The interaction of the isolated EF-hand domain of phospholipase C delta1 with arachidonic acid (AA) was characterized using circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The far-UV CD spectral changes indicate that AA binds to the EF domain. The near-UV CD spectra suggest that the orientations of aromatic residues in the peptide are affected when AA binds to the protein. The fluorescence of the single intrinsic tryptophan located in EF1 was enhanced by the addition of dodecylmaltoside (DDM) and AA suggesting that this region of the protein is involved in hydrophobic interactions. In the presence of a low concentration of DDM it was found that AA induced a change in fluorescence resonance energy transfer, which is indicative of a conformational change. The lipid induced conformational change may play a role in calcium binding because the isolated EF-hand domain did not bind Ca2+ in the absence of lipids, but Ca2+-dependent changes in the intrinsic tryptophan emission were observed when free fatty acids were present. These studies identify specific EF-hand domains as allosteric regulatory domains that require hydrophobic ligands such as lipids.

Abstract
Phospholipase C (PLC)delta1 shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Here, we demonstrate that treatment of MDCK cells and PC12 cells with ionomycin causes nuclear accumulation of ectopically expressed and endogenous PLCdelta1, respectively, suggesting that signals that increase [Ca2+]i trigger nuclear translocation. To clarify the molecular mechanisms involved in this translocation, we have examined whether PLCdelta1 binds with importins. PLCdelta1 interacted with importin beta1 in a Ca2+-dependent manner in vitro even in the absence of importin alpha. A PLCdelta1 mutant E341A, which lacks Ca2+-binding to the catalytic core, did not show this interaction at any physiological Ca2+ concentration and did not translocate into the nucleus after ionomycin treatment when expressed in MDCK cells. These results suggested that the nuclear import of PLCdelta1 is mediated by its Ca2+-dependent interaction with importin beta1.

Abstract
The role of calcium (Ca(2+)) in cytokinesis is controversial, and the precise pathways that lead to its release during cleavage are not well understood. Ca(2+) is released from intracellular stores by binding of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) to the IP3 receptor (IP3R), yet no clear role in cytokinesis has been established for the precursor of IP3, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Here, using transgenic flies expressing PLCdelta-PH-GFP, which specifically binds PIP2, we identify PIP2 in the plasma membrane and cleavage furrows of dividing Drosophila melanogaster spermatocytes, and we establish that this phospholipid is required for continued ingression but not for initiation of cytokinesis. In addition, by inhibiting phospholipase C, we show that PIP2 must be hydrolyzed to maintain cleavage furrow stability. Using an IP3R antagonist and a Ca(2+) chelator to examine the roles of IP3R and Ca(2+) in cytokinesis, we demonstrate that both of these factors are required for cleavage furrow stability, although Ca(2+) is dispensable for cleavage plane specification and initiation of furrowing. Strikingly, providing cells with Ca(2+) obviates the need to hydrolyze PIP2. Thus, PIP2, PIP2 hydrolysis, and Ca(2+) are required for the normal progression of cytokinesis in these cells.

Abstract
Many cellular proteins are bound to the surfaces of membranes and participate in various cell signaling responses. Interactions between this group of proteins are in part controlled by the membrane surface to which the proteins are bound. This review focuses on the effects of pressure on membrane-associated proteins. Initially, the effect of pressure on membrane surfaces and how pressure may perturb the membrane binding of proteins is discussed. Next, the effect of pressure on the activity and lateral association of proteins is considered. We then discuss how pressure can be used to gain insight into these types of proteins.

Abstract
1. Synaptotagmin has been reported to function in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Here, we investigated its involvement in agonist-stimulated internalization of M4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors exogenously expressed in human embryonic kidney (HEK-293 tsA201) cells. 2. Synaptotagmin I was present at low levels in these cells, and when overexpressed resided at the plasma membrane. 3. Synaptotagmin overexpression alone did not affect receptor internalization, but 'rescued' internalization that had been inhibited by either dominant-negative dynamin-1 or dominant-negative arrestin-2. Both normal and 'rescued' internalization were sensitive to inhibitors of clathrin-mediated endocytosis, but not to inhibitors of the function of caveolae. 4. There was no increase in AP-2 recruitment to the plasma membrane in cells overexpressing synaptotagmin. However, a mutant form of the receptor lacking a potential AP-2 recruitment motif, while being internalized normally in response to agonist stimulation, was not rescued by synaptotagmin in cells expressing dominant-negative dynamin or arrestin. 5. A mutant form of synaptotagmin (K326,327A), which binds phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) much more weakly than the wild-type protein, did not rescue internalization. Furthermore, internalization was inhibited by the PH domain of phospholipase C-delta1, which sequesters PIP2, and synaptotagmin was now unable to rescue. 6. We propose that AP-2 binding to the C-terminal tail of the receptor is not normally required for its endocytosis, but that the synaptotagmin-mediated rescue involves the formation of a ternary complex with the receptor and AP-2. PIP2 might play a role as an intermediary in the formation of this complex.

Abstract
Modulation of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels via G-protein-coupled receptors is a prime mechanism regulating neurotransmitter release and synaptic plasticity. Despite extensive studies, the molecular mechanism underlying Gq/11-mediated modulation remains unclear. We found cloned and native N-type Ca2+ channels to be regulated by phosphatidylinositol [correction] 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). In inside-out oocyte patches, PIP2 greatly attenuated or reversed the observed rundown of expressed channels. In sympathetic neurons, muscarinic M1 ACh receptor suppression of the Ca2+ current (ICa) was temporally correlated with PIP2 hydrolysis, blunted by PIP2 in whole-cell pipettes, attenuated by expression of PIP2-sequestering proteins, and became irreversible when PIP2 synthesis was blocked. We also probed mechanisms of receptor specificity. Although bradykinin also induced PIP2 hydrolysis, it did not inhibit ICa. However, bradykinin receptors became nearly as effective as M1 receptors when PIP2 synthesis, IP3 receptors, or the activity of neuronal Ca2+ sensor-1 were blocked, suggesting that bradykinin receptor-induced intracellular Ca2+ increases stimulate PIP2 synthesis, compensating for PIP2 hydrolysis. We suggest that differential use of PIP2 signals underlies specificity of Gq/11-coupled receptor actions on the channels

Abstract
The sperm-specific phospholipase C-zeta (PLCzeta) elicits fertilization-like Ca2+ oscillations and activation of embryo development when microinjected into mammalian eggs (Saunders, C. M., Larman, M. G., Parrington, J., Cox, L. J., Royse, J., Blayney, L. M., Swann, K., and Lai, F. A. (2002) Development (Camb.) 129, 3533-3544; Cox, L. J., Larman, M. G., Saunders, C. M., Hashimoto, K., Swann, K., and Lai, F. A. (2002) Reproduction 124, 611-623). PLCzeta may represent the physiological stimulus for egg activation and development at mammalian fertilization. PLCzeta is the smallest known mammalian PLC isozyme, comprising two EF hand domains, a C2 domain, and the catalytic X and Y core domains. To gain insight into PLCzeta structure-function, we assessed the ability of PLCzeta and a series of domain-deletion constructs to cause phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis in vitro and also to generate cytoplasmic Ca2+ changes in intact mouse eggs. PLCzeta and the closely related PLCdelta1 had similar K(m) values for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, but PLCzeta was around 100 times more sensitive to Ca2+ than was PLCdelta1. Notably, specific phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis activity was retained in PLCzeta constructs that had either EF hand domains or the C2 domain removed, or both. In contrast, Ca2+ sensitivity was greatly reduced when either one, or both, of the EF hand domains were absent, and the Hill coefficient was reduced upon deletion of the C2 domain. Microinjection into intact mouse eggs revealed that all domain-deletion constructs were ineffective at initiating Ca2+ oscillations. These data suggest that the exquisite Ca2+-dependent features of PLCzeta regulation are essential for it to generate inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and Ca2+ oscillations in intact mouse eggs.

Abstract
Translocation of a protein to the plasma membrane in response to the generation of polyphosphoinositol lipids is believed to be an important component of cellular regulation, in part because it increases the effective concentration of that protein relative to other proteins in the same membrane by restricting it to a two-dimensional space. However, such a concept assumes that, once translocated, a protein retains the free mobility it had in the cytoplasm, and also that the possible existence of partitioned pools of inositol lipids does not restrict its sphere of influence. We have explored by fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) the mobility of four green-fluorescent-protein-tagged proteins, GAP1(IP4BP) and GAP1(m), when they are either cytoplasmic or attached to the plasma membrane, and the PH domain of PI-PLCdelta(1) and ICAM as representative of, respectively, another inositol-lipid-anchored protein and a single-transmembrane-span-domain protein. The data from GAP1(m) and the PI-PLCdelta(1) PH domain show that, when proteins associate with inositol lipids in the plasma membrane, they retain a mobility similar to that in the cytoplasm, and probably also similar to the inositol lipid to which they are attached, suggesting a free diffusion within the plane of the membrane. Moreover, this free diffusion is similar whether they are bound to PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) or to PtdIns(4,5)P(2), and no evidence was found by these criteria for restricted pools of PtdIns(4,5)P(2). The mobility of GAP1(IP4BP), which has been reported to associate with PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in the plasma membrane, is much lower, suggesting that it might interact with other cellular components. Moreover, the mobility of GAP1(IP4BP) is not detectably altered by the generation of either of its two potential regulators, Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4) or PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3).

Abstract
Nuclear phosphoinositides, especially phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, fluctuate throughout the cell cycle and are linked to proliferation and differentiation. Here we report that phospholipase C-delta(1) accumulates in the nucleus at the G(1)/S boundary and in G(0) phases of the cell cycle. Furthermore, as wild-type protein accumulated in the nucleus, nuclear phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate levels were elevated 3-5-fold, whereas total levels were decreased compared with asynchronous cultures. To test whether phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate binding is important during this process, we introduced a R40D point mutation within the pleckstrin homology domain of phospholipase C-delta(1), which disables high affinity phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate binding, and found that nuclear translocation was significantly reduced at G(1)/S and in G(0). These results demonstrate a cell cycle-dependent compartmentalization of phospholipase C-delta(1) and support the idea that relative levels of phosphoinositides modulate the portioning of phosphoinositide-binding proteins between the nucleus and other compartments.

Abstract
Second messengers generated from membrane lipids play a critical role in signaling and control diverse cellular processes. Despite being one of the most evolutionarily conserved of all the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) isoforms, a family of enzymes responsible for hydrolysis of the membrane lipid phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate, the mechanism of PLC-delta1 activation is still poorly understood. Here we report a novel regulatory mechanism for PLC-delta1 activation that involves direct interaction of the small GTPase Ral and the universal calcium-signaling molecule calmodulin (CaM) with PLC-delta1. In addition, we have identified a novel IQ type CaM binding motif within the catalytic region of PLC-delta1 that is not found in other PLC isoforms. Binding of CaM at the IQ motif inhibits PLC-delta1 activity, while addition of Ral reverses the inhibition. The overexpression of various Ral mutants in cells potentiates PLC-delta1 activity. Thus, the Ral-CaM complex defines a multifaceted regulatory mechanism for PLC-delta1 activation.

Abstract
We have investigated the cellular distribution of p122RhoGAP, a GTPase-activating protein of Rho small GTPase and an activator of phospholipase C-delta(1). Immunofluorescence studies demonstrated that endogenous p122 is localized at the tips of actin stress fibres and co-localizes with vinculin in normal rat kidney cells. In immunoprecipitation studies, p122 co-precipitated with vinculin, indicating that p122 is localized at the sites of focal adhesion. We have also shown that the N-terminal half of p122 is responsible for this localization. It is conceivable, therefore, that p122 is involved in the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesions that regulate cell-substratum adhesion and cell migration.

Abstract
The relationship between receptor-induced membrane phosphatidylinositol-4'5'-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and M-current inhibition was assessed in single-dissociated rat sympathetic neurons by simultaneous or parallel recording of membrane current and membrane-to-cytosol translocation of the fluorescent PIP2/inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-binding peptide green fluorescent protein-tagged pleckstrin homology domain of phospholipase C (GFP-PLCdelta-PH). The muscarinic receptor agonist oxotremorine-M produced parallel time- and concentration-dependent M-current inhibition and GFP-PLCdelta-PH translocation; bradykinin also produced parallel time-dependent inhibition and translocation. Phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate-5-kinase (PI5-K) overexpression reduced both M-current inhibition and GFP-PLCdelta-PH translocation by both oxotremorine-M and bradykinin. These effects were partly reversed by wortmannin, which inhibits phosphatidylinositol-4-kinase (PI4-K). PI5-K overexpression also reduced the inhibitory action of oxotremorine-M on PIP2-gated G-protein-gated inward rectifier (Kir3.1/3.2) channels; bradykinin did not inhibit these channels. Overexpression of neuronal calcium sensor-1 protein (NCS-1), which increases PI4-K activity, did not affect responses to oxotremorine-M but reduced both fluorescence translocation and M-current inhibition by bradykinin. Using an intracellular IP3 membrane fluorescence-displacement assay, initial mean concentrations of membrane [PIP2] were estimated at 261 microm (95% confidence limit; 192-381 microm), rising to 693 microm (417-1153 microm) in neurons overexpressing PI5-K. Changes in membrane [PIP2] during application of oxotremorine-M were calculated from fluorescence data. The results, taken in conjunction with previous data for KCNQ2/3 (Kv7.2/Kv7.3) channel gating by PIP2 (Zhang et al., 2003), accorded with the hypothesis that the inhibitory action of oxotremorine-M on M current resulted from depletion of PIP2. The effects of bradykinin require additional components of action, which might involve IP3-induced Ca2+ release and consequent M-channel inhibition (as proposed previously) and stimulation of PIP2 synthesis by Ca2+-dependent activation of NCS-1.

Abstract
Galpha(h), also known as transglutaminase II, has GTPase as well as transglutaminase activities. To better understand the factors affecting these dual enzymatic activities, we examined the optimal pH (at 25 degrees C) and thermal stability (at 37 degrees C) of the activities using membranous Galpha(h) from mouse heart. The optimum pH for the GTPase activity of Galpha(h) is approximately 7.0. As well, the GTP binding activity of Galpha(h) is more thermostable at pH 7.0 than that at pH 9.0. Consistent with these observations on the GTPase function of Galpha(h), both the phospholipase C-delta1 activity and the yield of co-immunoprecipitation of Galpha(h)-coupled phospholipase C-delta1 in alpha(1)-adrenoceptor/Galpha(h)/phospholipase C-delta1 complex preparations were enhanced by incubation with an alpha(1)-agonist, phenylephrine, at pH 7.0. On the other hand, the transglutaminase activity of Galpha(h) is higher in the basic pH range with an optimum activity at pH approximately 9.0. Also, the transglutaminase activity of Galpha(h) is more thermostable at pH 9.0 than that at pH 7.0. These results indicate not only pH as a modulator for the dual functions of Galpha(h), but also provide direct evidence for the involvement of pH in the Galpha(h)-mediated alpha(1)-adrenoceptor signaling system in vitro.

Abstract
Motile nonmuscle cells concentrate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) in areas of new actin filament assembly. There is great interest in assessing the in vivo functional significance of these phosphoinositides, and we have used Listeria monocytogenes to explore the contribution of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(4,5)P2 to its actin-based motility. In Listeria-infected PtK2 cells Akt-pleckstrin homology (PH)-green fluorescent protein (GFP) and phospholipase C delta (PLC delta)-PH-GFP both first concentrate at the front of motile Listeria, subsequently surrounding the bacterium and then concentrating in the actin filament tail. Surprisingly, Listeria ActA mutant strains lacking the putative phosphoinositide binding site are also able to concentrate these probes. Reduction of available PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 by expression of Akt-PH-GFP and available PtdIns(4,5)P2 by expression of PLC delta-PH-GFP both significantly slow Listeria actin-based movement. Treatment of cells with the PI 3-kinase inhibitor, LY294002, dissociates Akt-PH but not PLC delta-PH, from the bacterial surface and cell membranes, and results in near complete inhibition of Listeria actin-based motility and filopod formation. Removal of LY294002 results in rapid and full recovery of Akt-PH localization, Listeria actin-based motility, and filopod formation. These findings suggest that PtdIns(4,5)P2 is concentrated at the surface of Listeria and serves as the substrate for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 production, indicating a central role for PI 3-kinases in Listeria intracellular actin-based motility and filopod formation.

Abstract
ASAP1 is an Arf GAP with a PH domain immediately N-terminal to the catalytic Arf GAP domain. PH domains are thought to regulate enzymes by binding to specific phosphoinositide lipids in membranes, thereby recruiting the enzyme to a site of action. Here, we have examined the functional relationship between the PH and Arf GAP domains. We found that GAP activity requires the cognate PH domain of ASAP1, leading us to hypothesize that the Arf GAP and PH domains directly interact to form the substrate binding site. This hypothesis was supported by the combined results of protection and hydrodynamic studies. We then examined the role of the PH domain in the regulation of Arf GAP activity. The results of saturation kinetics, limited proteolysis, FRET and fluorescence spectrometry support a model in which regulation of the GAP activity of ASAP1 involves a conformational change coincident with recruitment to a membrane surface, and a second conformational change following the specific binding of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate.

Abstract
Phospholipase Cbeta (PLCbeta) isoforms, which are under the control of Galphaq and Gbetagamma subunits, generate Ca2+ signals induced by a broad array of extracellular agonists, whereas PLCdelta isoforms depend on a rise in cytosolic Ca2+ for their activation. Here we find that PLCbeta2 binds strongly to PLCdelta1 and inhibits its catalytic activity in vitro and in living cells. In vitro, this PLC complex can be disrupted by increasing concentrations of free Gbetagamma subunits. Such competition has consequences for signaling, because in HEK293 cells PLCbeta2 suppresses elevated basal [Ca2+] and inositol phosphates levels and the sustained agonist-induced elevation of Ca2+ levels caused by PLCdelta1. Also, expression of both PLCs results in a synergistic release of [Ca2+] upon stimulation in A10 cells. These results support a model in which PLCbeta2 suppresses the basal catalytic activity of PLCdelta1, which is relieved by binding of Gbetagamma subunits to PLCbeta2 allowing for amplified calcium signals.

Abstract
The mechanism of phospholipase (PLC)-delta activation by G protein-coupled receptor agonists was examined in rabbit gastric smooth muscle. Ca(2+) stimulated an eightfold increase in PLC-delta1 activity in permeabilized muscle cells. Treatment of dispersed or cultured muscle cells with three G(i/o)-coupled receptor agonists (somatostatin, delta-opioid agonist [D-Pen(2),D-Pen(5)]enkephalin, and A(1) agonist cyclopentyl adenosine) caused delayed increase in phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis (8- to 10-fold) that was strongly inhibited by overexpression of dominant-negative PLC-delta1(E341R/D343R; 65-76%) or constitutively active RhoA(G14V). The response coincided with capacitative Ca(2+) influx and was not observed in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+), but was partly inhibited by nifedipine (16-30%) and strongly inhibited by SKF-96365, a blocker of store-operated Ca(2+) channels. Treatment of the cells with a G(q/13)-coupled receptor agonist, CCK-8, caused only transient, PLC-beta1-mediated PI hydrolysis. Unlike G(i/o)-coupled receptor agonists, CCK-8 activated RhoA and stimulated RhoA:PLC-delta1 association. Inhibition of RhoA activity with C3 exoenzyme or by overexpression of dominant-negative RhoA(T19N) or Galpha(13) minigene unmasked a delayed increase in PI hydrolysis that was strongly inhibited by coexpression of PLC-delta1(E341R/D343R) or by SKF-96365. Agonist-independent capacitative Ca(2+) influx induced by thapsigargin stimulated PI hydrolysis (8-fold), which was partly inhibited by nifedipine ( approximately 25%) and strongly inhibited by SKF-96365 ( approximately 75%) and in cells expressing PLC-delta1(E341R/D343R). Agonist-independent Ca(2+) release or Ca(2+) influx via voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels stimulated only moderate PI hydrolysis (2- to 3-fold), which was abolished by PLC-delta1 antibody or nifedipine. We conclude that PLC-delta1 is activated by G(i/o)-coupled receptor agonists that do not activate RhoA. The activation is preferentially mediated by Ca(2+) influx via store-operated Ca(2+) channels.

Abstract
A gene encoding phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC), designated ML-PLCdelta, was cloned from mud loach (Misgurnus mizolepis) liver. A complete cDNA encoding ML-PLCdelta was isolated by screening the cDNA library of mud loach liver and using the 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) method. The full-length ML-PLCdelta gene contains an open reading frame of 2325 base pairs encoding a 774 amino acid protein with a molecular mass of 88,072 Da; this corresponds to the size of the protein expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) using pET28a vector. It contains all of the characteristic domains found in mammalian PLCdelta isozymes (PH domain, EF-hands, X-Y catalytic region, and a C2 domain). A homology search revealed that ML-PLCdelta shares relatively high sequence identity with mammalian PLCdelta1 (51-52%) and catfish PLCdelta (64%). The recombinant ML-PLCdelta protein expressed as a histidine-tagged fusion protein in E. coli was purified to apparent homogeneity by Ni(2+)-NTA affinity chromatography. The recombinant ML-PLCdelta showed a concentration-dependent PLC activity to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bis-phosphate (PIP(2)) and its activity was Ca(2+)-dependent, which was similar to mammalian PLCdelta isozymes.

Abstract
A major regulator of endocytosis and cortical F-actin is thought to be phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] present in plasma membranes. Here we report that in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, clathrin-coated membrane retrieval and dense concentrations of polymerized actin occur in restricted zones of high endocytic activity. Ultrafast-acquisition and superresolution deconvolution microscopy of cultured adipocytes expressing an enhanced green fluorescent protein- or enhanced cyan fluorescent protein (ECFP)-tagged phospholipase Cdelta1 (PLCdelta1) pleckstrin homology (PH) domain reveals that these zones spatially coincide with large-scale PtdIns(4,5)P2-rich plasma membrane patches (PRMPs). PRMPs exhibit lateral dimensions exceeding several micrometers, are relatively stationary, and display extensive local membrane folding that concentrates PtdIns(4,5)P2 in three-dimensional space. In addition, a higher concentration of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the membranes of PRMPs than in other regions of the plasma membrane can be detected by quantitative fluorescence microscopy. Vesicular structures containing both clathrin heavy chains and PtdIns(4,5)P2 are revealed immediately beneath PRMPs, as is dense F actin. Blockade of PtdIns(4,5)P2 function in PRMPs by high expression of the ECFP-tagged PLCdelta1 PH domain inhibits transferrin endocytosis and reduces the abundance of cortical F-actin. Membrane ruffles induced by the expression of unconventional myosin 1c were also found to localize at PRMPs. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that PRMPs organize active PtdIns(4,5)P2 signaling zones in the adipocyte plasma membrane that in turn control regulators of endocytosis, actin dynamics, and membrane ruffling.

Abstract
[Ca(2+)](i) oscillations can either depend on oscillatory inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3)) formation by phospholipase C (PLC) or rely on local feedback mechanisms involving the InsP(3) receptor. To assess the PLC activity underlying carbachol-induced [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in single HEK293 cells, we co-imaged [Ca(2+)](i) with fluorescent fusion proteins of protein kinase C (PKC) isotypes and the PH domain of PLC-delta 1 (PLC-delta 1(PH)). The translocation of PKC alpha-YFP in single cells followed two discrete patterns. Upon maximally effective agonist concentrations, a fast association and delayed dissociation (k(on)>k(off)) was the predominant pattern. The delayed dissociation has been linked to diacylglycerol formation. Upon stimulation with submaximally effective agonist concentrations as well as during regenerative [Ca(2+)](i) waves, we mainly observed short translocations with k(on) approximately equal to k(off). Translocation time courses and efficiencies of the diacylglycerol-sensing PKC epsilon-CFP and the InsP(3)/phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate-sensing YFP-PLC-delta 1(PH) were closely correlated. Significant PLC activity was only detectable upon strong receptor stimulation, which typically failed to trigger [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations. During [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations induced by submaximal receptor stimulation, YFP-PLC-delta 1(PH) did not translocate, whereas a fluorescent PKC epsilon fusion protein has been reported to exhibit a slow, non-oscillatory accumulation at the plasma membrane. We conclude that carbachol-induced [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in HEK293 cells develop at low levels of presumably non-oscillatory PLC activity.

Abstract
Mitochondrial Ca2+ (mCa2+) handling is an important regulator of liver cell function that controls events ranging from cellular respiration and signal transduction to apoptosis. Cytosolic Ca2+ enters mitochondria through the ruthenium red-sensitive mCa2+ uniporter, but the mechanisms governing uniporter activity are unknown. Activation of many Ca2+ channels in the cell membrane requires PLC. This activation commonly occurs through phosphitidylinositol-4,5-biphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and the production of the second messengers inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [I(1,4,5)P3] and 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG). PIP2 was recently identified in mitochondria. We hypothesized that PLC exists in liver mitochondria and regulates mCa2+ uptake through the uniporter. Western blot analysis with anti-PLC antibodies demonstrated the presence of PLC-delta1 in pure preparations of mitochondrial membranes isolated from rat liver. In addition, the selective PLC inhibitor U-73122 dose-dependently blocked mCa2+ uptake when whole mitochondria were incubated at 37 degrees C with 45Ca2+. Increasing extra mCa2+ concentration significantly stimulated mCa2+ uptake, and U-73122 inhibited this effect. Spermine, a uniporter agonist, significantly increased mCa2+ uptake, whereas U-73122 dose-dependently blocked this effect. The inactive analog of U-73122, U-73343, did not affect mCa2+ uptake in any experimental condition. Membrane-permeable I(1,4,5)P3 receptor antagonists 2-aminoethoxydiphenylborate and xestospongin C also inhibited mCa2+ uptake. Although extra mitochondrial I(1,4,5)P3 had no effect on mCa2+ uptake, membrane-permeable DAG analogs 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol and DAG-lactone, which inhibit PLC activity, dose-dependently inhibited mCa2+ uptake. These data indicate that PLC-delta1 exists in liver mitochondria and is involved in regulating mCa2+ uptake through the uniporter.

Abstract
We used the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) biosensor, the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of PLCdelta1 (phospholipase C) tagged with enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP-PH(PLCdelta)), to examine muscarinic acetylcholine (mACh) receptor regulation of phospholipase C/IP3 signaling in intact single hippocampal neurons in "real time." Initial experiments produced a pharmacological profile consistent with the presence of a predominant M1 mACh receptor population coupled to the IP3 response. To investigate M1 mACh receptor regulation, neurons were stimulated with approximate EC50 concentrations of the mACh receptor agonist methacholine before (R1) and after (R2) a short (60 sec) exposure to a high concentration of agonist. This resulted in a marked attenuation in the R2 relative to R1 response. Inhibition of endogenous GRK6 (G-protein-coupled receptor kinase) activity, by the introduction of catalytically inactive (K215R)GRK6, partially reversed the attenuation of agonist-induced responsiveness, whereas overexpression of wild-type GRK6 increased receptor desensitization. Manipulation of endogenous GRK2 activity through introduction of either wild-type or catalytically inactive GRK2 ((K220R)GRK2) almost completely inhibited agonist-stimulated IP3 production, implying a phosphorylation-independent regulation of M1 mACh receptor signaling, most probably mediated by a GRK2 N-terminal RGS-like (regulator of G-protein signaling) domain interaction with GTP-bound Galpha(q/11). Together, our data suggest a role for both phosphorylation-dependent and -independent regulation of M1 mACh receptors in hippocampal neurons.
