Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) 4 and TRPC5 channels are modulated by the Gαq-PLC pathway. Since phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) maintains TRPC4 and TRPC5 channel function, the Gαq-PLC pathway inhibits channel activity by depleting PI(4,5)P2. Here we investigated the difference in PI(4,5)P2 sensitivity between homomeric and heteromeric TRPC channels. First, by using a Danio rerio voltage-sensing phosphatase (DrVSP), we show that PI(4,5)P2 dephosphorylation robustly inhibits TRPC4α, TRPC4β, and TRPC5 homotetramer currents and also TRPC1/4α, TRPC1/4β, and TRPC1/5 heterotetramer currents. Secondly, sensitivity of channels to PI(4,5)P2 dephosphorylation was suggested through the usage of FRET in combination with patch clamping. The sensitivity increased in the sequence TRPC4β < TRPC4α < TRPC5 in homotetramers, whereas when forming heterotetramers with TRPC1, the sensitivity was approximately equal between the channels. Thirdly, we determined putative PI(4,5)P2 binding sites based on a TRPC4 prediction model. By neutralization of basic residues, we identified putative PI(4,5)P2 binding sites because the mutations reduced FRET to a PI(4,5)P2 sensor and reduced the current amplitude. Therefore, one functional TRPC4 has 8 pockets with the two main binding regions; K419, K664/R511, K518, H630. We conclude that TRPC1 channel function as a regulator in setting PI(4,5)P2 affinity for TRPC4 and TRPC5 that changes PI(4,5)P2 sensitivity.

Abstract
TMEM16F is a Ca2+ -gated ion channel that is required for Ca2+ -activated phosphatidylserine exposure on the surface of many eukaryotic cells. TMEM16F is widely expressed and has roles in platelet activation during blood clotting, bone formation and T cell activation. By combining microscopy and patch clamp recording we demonstrate that activation of TMEM16F by Ca2+ ionophores in Jurkat T cells triggers large-scale surface membrane expansion in parallel with phospholipid scrambling. With continued ionophore application,TMEM16F-expressing cells then undergo extensive shedding of ectosomes. The T cell co-receptor PD-1 is selectively incorporated into ectosomes. This selectivity depends on its transmembrane sequence. Surprisingly, cells lacking TMEM16F not only fail to expand surface membrane in response to elevated cytoplasmic Ca2+, but instead undergo rapid massive endocytosis with PD-1 internalisation. These results establish a new role for TMEM16F as a regulator of Ca2+ activated membrane trafficking.

Abstract
The I-V relation of the TMEM16A channel is linear, whereas that of the TMEM16F scramblase is outwardly rectifying. Nguyen et al. show that rectification of TMEM16A is regulated by the charge of residue 584 but that rectification of TMEM16F is affected by aromatic residues at the equivalent position. Two TMEM16 family members, TMEM16A and TMEM16F, have different ion transport properties. Upon activation by intracellular Ca2+, TMEM16A—a Ca2+-activated Cl− channel—is more selective for anions than cations, whereas TMEM16F—a phospholipid scramblase—appears to transport both cations and anions. Under saturating Ca2+ conditions, the current–voltage (I-V) relationships of these two proteins also differ; the I-V curve of TMEM16A is linear, while that of TMEM16F is outwardly rectifying. We previously found that mutating a positively charged lysine residue (K584) in the ion transport pathway to glutamine converted the linear I-V curve of TMEM16A to an outwardly rectifying curve. Interestingly, the corresponding residue in the outwardly rectifying TMEM16F is also a glutamine (Q559). Here, we examine the ion transport functions of TMEM16 molecules and compare the roles of K584 of TMEM16A and Q559 of TMEM16F in controlling the rectification of their respective I-V curves. We find that rectification of TMEM16A is regulated electrostatically by the side-chain charge on the residue at position 584, whereas the charge on residue 559 in TMEM16F has little effect. Unexpectedly, mutation of Q559 to aromatic amino acid residues significantly alters outward rectification in TMEM16F. These same mutants show reduced Ca2+-induced current rundown (or desensitization) compared with wild-type TMEM16F. A mutant that removes the rundown of TMEM16F could facilitate the study of ion transport mechanisms in this phospholipid scramblase in the same way that a CLC-0 mutant in which inactivation (or closure of the slow gate) is suppressed was used in our previous studies.

Abstract
Calcium-activated phospholipid scramblase mediates the energy-independent bidirectional translocation of lipids across the bilayer, leading to transient or, in the case of apoptotic scrambling, sustained collapse of membrane asymmetry. Cells lacking TMEM16F-dependent lipid scrambling activity are deficient in generation of extracellular vesicles (EVs) that shed from the plasma membrane in a Ca2+-dependent manner, namely microvesicles. We have adapted chemical induction of giant plasma membrane vesicles (GPMVs), which require both TMEM16F-dependent phospholipid scrambling and calcium influx, as a kinetic assay to investigate the mechanism of TMEM16F activity. Using the GPMV assay, we identify and characterize both inactivating and activating mutants that elucidate the mechanism for TMEM16F activation and facilitate further investigation of TMEM16F-mediated lipid translocation and its role in extracellular vesiculation.

Abstract
Voltage-sensing phosphatase (VSP) contains a voltage sensor domain (VSD) similar to that in voltage-gated ion channels, and a phosphoinositide phosphatase region similar to phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN). The VSP gene is conserved from unicellular organisms to higher vertebrates. Membrane depolarization induces electrical driven conformational rearrangement in the VSD, which is translated into catalytic enzyme activity. Biophysical and structural characterization has revealed details of the mechanisms underlying the molecular functions of VSP. Coupling between the VSD and the enzyme is tight, such that enzyme activity is tuned in a graded fashion to the membrane voltage. Upon VSP activation, multiple species of phosphoinositides are simultaneously altered, and the profile of enzyme activity depends on the history of the membrane potential. VSPs have been the obvious candidate link between membrane potential and phosphoinositide regulation. However, patterns of voltage change regulating VSP in native cells remain largely unknown. This review addresses the current understanding of the biophysical biochemical properties of VSP and provides new insight into the proposed functions of VSP.

Abstract
Anoctamin 6 (ANO6/TMEM16F) is a recently identified membrane protein that has both phospholipid scramblase activity and anion channel function activated by relatively high [Ca2+]i. In addition to the low sensitivity to Ca2+, the activation of ANO6 Cl- conductance is very slow (>3-5 min to reach peak level at 10 μM [Ca2+]i), with subsequent inactivation. In a whole-cell patch clamp recording of ANO6 current (IANO6,w-c), disruption of the actin cytoskeleton with cytochalasin-D (cytoD) significantly accelerated the activation kinetics, while actin filament-stabilizing agents (phalloidin and jasplakinolide) commonly inhibited IANO6,w-c. Inside-out patch clamp recording of ANO6 (IANO6,i-o) showed immediate activation by raising [Ca2+]i. We also found that intracellular ATP (3 mM MgATP in pipette solution) decelerated the activation of IANO6,w-c, and also prevented the inactivation of IANO6,w-c. However, the addition of cytoD still accelerated both activation and inactivation of IANO6,w-c. We conclude that the actin cytoskeleton and intracellular ATP play major roles in the Ca2+-dependent activation and inactivation of IANO6,w-c, respectively.

Abstract
We recently reported that the inward-rectifier Kir2.1 channel in brain capillary endothelial cells (cECs) plays a major role in neurovascular coupling (NVC) by mediating a neuronal activity-dependent, propagating vasodilatory (hyperpolarizing) signal. We further demonstrated that Kir2.1 activity is suppressed by depletion of plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Whether cECs express depolarizing channels that intersect with Kir2.1-mediated signaling remains unknown. Here, we report that Ca2+/Na+-permeable TRPV4 (transient receptor potential vanilloid 4) channels are expressed in cECs and are tonically inhibited by PIP2. We further demonstrate that depletion of PIP2 by agonists, including putative NVC mediators, that promote PIP2 hydrolysis by signaling through Gq-protein-coupled receptors (GqPCRs) caused simultaneous disinhibition of TRPV4 channels and suppression of Kir2.1 channels. These findings collectively support the concept that GqPCR activation functions as a molecular switch to favor capillary TRPV4 activity over Kir2.1 signaling, an observation with potentially profound significance for the control of cerebral blood flow. Capillaries form branching networks that surround all cells of the body. They allow oxygen and nutrient exchange between blood and tissue, but this is not their only role. Capillaries in the brain form a tight barrier that prevents components carried in the blood from easily reaching the brain compartment. They also detect the activity of neurons and trigger on-demand increases in blood flow to active regions of the brain. This role, revealed only recently, depends upon ion channels on the surface of the capillary cells. Active neurons release potassium ions, which open a type of ion channel called Kir2.1 that allows potassium inside the cell to flow out. This process is repeated in neighboring capillary cells until it reaches an upstream vessel, where it causes the vessel to relax and increase the blood flow. Kir2.1 channels sit astride the membranes of capillary cells, where they can interact with other membrane molecules. One such molecule, called PIP2, plays several roles in relaying signals from the outside to the inside of cells. It also physically interacts with channels in the membrane, including Kir2.1 channels. If PIP2 levels are low, Kir2.1 channel activity decreases. Here, Harraz et al. discovered that capillary cells contain another type of ion channel, called TRPV4, which is also regulated by PIP2. But unlike Kir2.1, its activity increases when PIP2 levels drop. Moreover, TRPV4 channels allow sodium and calcium ions to flow into the cell, which has an effect opposite to that of potassium flowing out of the cell. Capillary cells also have receptor proteins called GqPCRs that are activated by chemical signals released by active neurons in the brain. GqPCRs break down PIP2, so their activity turns Kir2.1 channels off and TRPV4 channels on. This resets the system so that it is ready to respond to new signals from active neurons. GqPCRs work as molecular switches to control the balance between Kir2.1 and TRPV4 channels and turn brain blood flow up and down. GqPCRs and ion channels that depend on PIP2 can also be found in other types of cells. These findings could reveal clues about how signals are switched on and off in different cells. Understanding the role of PIP2 in signaling could also unveil what happens when signaling go wrong.

Abstract
Falzone et al. interpret the mechanisms underlying the activity of TMEM16 family members from recent structural and functional work. The TMEM16 family of membrane proteins is composed of both Ca2+-gated Cl− channels and Ca2+-dependent phospholipid scramblases. The functional diversity of TMEM16s underlies their involvement in numerous signal transduction pathways that connect changes in cytosolic Ca2+ levels to cellular signaling networks. Indeed, defects in the function of several TMEM16s cause a variety of genetic disorders, highlighting their fundamental pathophysiological importance. Here, we review how our mechanistic understanding of TMEM16 function has been shaped by recent functional and structural work. Remarkably, the recent determination of near-atomic-resolution structures of TMEM16 proteins of both functional persuasions has revealed how relatively minimal rearrangements in the substrate translocation pathway are sufficient to precipitate the dramatic functional differences that characterize the family. These structures, when interpreted in the light of extensive functional analysis, point to an unusual mechanism for Ca2+-dependent activation of TMEM16 proteins in which substrate permeation is regulated by a combination of conformational rearrangements and electrostatics. These breakthroughs pave the way to elucidate the mechanistic bases of ion and lipid transport by the TMEM16 proteins and unravel the molecular links between these transport activities and their function in human pathophysiology.
