Abstract
Clathrin-coated pits at the cell surface select material for transportation into the cell interior. A major mode of cargo selection at the bud site is via the micro 2 subunit of the AP-2 adaptor complex, which recognizes tyrosine-based internalization signals. Other internalization motifs and signals, including phosphorylation and ubiquitylation, also tag certain proteins for incorporation into a coated vesicle, but the mechanism of selection is unclear. Disabled-2 (Dab2) recognizes the FXNPXY internalization motif in LDL-receptor family members via an N-terminal phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain. Here, we show that in addition to binding AP-2, Dab2 also binds directly to phosphoinositides and to clathrin, assembling triskelia into regular polyhedral coats. The FXNPXY motif and phosphoinositides contact different regions of the PTB domain, but can stably anchor Dab2 to the membrane surface, while the distal AP-2 and clathrin-binding determinants regulate clathrin lattice assembly. We propose that Dab2 is a typical member of a growing family of cargo-specific adaptor proteins, including beta-arrestin, AP180, epsin, HIP1 and numb, which regulate clathrin-coat assembly at the plasma membrane by synchronizing cargo selection and lattice polymerization events.

Abstract
Cytosol treated with guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPgammaS) destroys the dextran-loaded lysosomes (J. Biochem., 123, 637 (1998)). The transfer of the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) from the cytosol to the lysosomal membrane is necessary for this lysis to occur. The role of ARF in the biogenesis of the Golgi complex is to generate high-affinity membrane-binding sites for the heterotetrameric adaptor protein complex in Golgi membranes. We have found that ARF also recruits the adaptor protein to lysosomes. The recruitment of protein coats for vesicles is necessary for the GTPgammaS-stimulated lysis of lysosomes. The GTPgammaS-induced lysis proceeded via a process similar to that for the assembly of coated proteins to coated vesicles, which serve to transport proteins between intracellular organelles.

Abstract
Intracellular traffic is mediated by vesicular/tubular carriers. The carriers are formed by the activity of cytosolic coat proteins that are recruited to their target membranes and deform these membranes into buds and vesicles. Specific interactions between recruited coat subunits and short peptide sequences (transport motifs) on cargo proteins direct the incorporation of cargo into budded vesicles. Here, we focus on cargo selection reactions mediated by COPII and AP-2/clathrin vesicle coat complexes to explore common mechanisms by which coat assembly support localized and selective cargo sorting. Recent findings suggest that multiple, low-affinity interactions are employed in a cooperative manner to support coat assembly and enable cargo recognition. Thus low-binding affinities between coat subunits and transport motifs are transiently transformed into high-avidity, multivalent and selective interactions at vesicle bud sites. The temporal and regulated nature of the interactions provide the key to cargo selection.

Abstract
The clathrin adaptor complex AP-2 serves to coordinate clathrin-coated pit assembly with the sorting of transmembrane cargo proteins at the plasmalemma. How precisely AP-2 assembly and cargo protein recognition at sites of endocytosis are regulated has remained unclear, but recent evidence implicates phosphoinositides, in particular phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate (PI[4,5]P2), in these processes. Here we have identified and functionally characterized a conserved binding site for PI(4,5)P2 within mu2-adaptin, the medium chain of the clathrin adaptor complex AP-2. Mutant mu2 lacking a cluster of conserved lysine residues fails to bind PI(4,5)P2 and to compete the recruitment of native clathrin/AP-2 to PI(4,5)P2-containing liposomes or to presynaptic membranes. Moreover, we show that expression of mutant mu2 inhibits receptor-mediated endocytosis in living cells. We suggest that PI(4,5)P2 binding to mu2-adaptin regulates clathrin-mediated endocytosis and thereby may contribute to structurally linking cargo recognition to coat formation.

Abstract
The rat mast cell line RBL-2H3 contains both phospholipase D (PLD)1 and PLD2. Previous studies with this cell line indicated that expressed PLD1 and PLD2 are both strongly activated by stimulants of secretion. We now show by use of PLDs tagged with enhanced green fluorescent protein that PLD1, which is largely associated with secretory granules, redistributes to the plasma membrane in stimulated cells by processes reminiscent of exocytosis and fusion of granules with the plasma membrane. These processes and secretion of granules are suppressed by expression of a catalytically inactive mutant of PLD1 or by the presence of 50 mM 1-butanol but not tert-butanol, an indication that these events are dependent on the catalytic activity of PLD1. Of note, cholera toxin induces translocation of PLD1-labeled granules to the plasma membrane but not fusion of granules with plasma membrane or secretion. Subsequent stimulation of calcium influx with Ag or thapsigargin leads to rapid redistribution of PLD1 to the plasma membrane and accelerated secretion. Also of note, PLD1 is recycled from plasma membrane back to granules within 4 h of stimulation. PLD2, in contrast, is largely confined to the plasma membrane, but it too participates in the secretory process, because expression of catalytically inactive PLD2 also blocks secretion. These data indicate a two-step process: translocation of granules to the cell periphery, regulated by granule-associated PLD1, and a calcium-dependent fusion of granules with the plasma membrane, regulated by plasma membrane-associated PLD2 and possibly PLD1.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P(2)) is required both as a substrate for the generation of lipid-derived second messengers as well as an intact lipid for many aspects of cell signaling, endo- and exocytosis, and reorganization of the cytoskeleton. ADP ribosylation factor (ARF) proteins regulate PI(4,5)P(2) synthesis, and here we have examined whether this is due to direct activation of Type I phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) 5-kinase or indirectly by phosphatidate (PA) derived from phospholipase D (PLD) in HL60 cells. ARF1 and ARF6 are both expressed in HL60 cells and can be depleted from the cells by permeabilization. Both ARFs increased the levels of PIP(2) (PI(4,5)P(2), PI(3,5)P(2), or PI(3,4)P(2) isomers) at the expense of PIP when added back to permeabilized cells. The PIP(2) could be hydrolyzed by phospholipase C, identifying it as PI(4,5)P(2). However, the ARF1-stimulated pool of PI(4,5)P(2) was accessible to the phospholipase C more efficiently in the presence of phosphatidylinositol transfer protein-alpha. To examine the role of PLD in the regulation of PI(4,5)P(2) synthesis, we used butanol to diminish the PLD-derived PA. PI(4,5)P(2) synthesis stimulated by ARF1 was not blocked by 0.5% butanol but could be blocked by 1.5% butanol. Although 0.5% butanol was optimal for maximal transphosphatidylation, PA production was still detectable. In contrast, 1.5% butanol was found to inhibit the activation of PLD by ARF1 and also decrease PIP levels by 50%. Thus the toxicity of 1.5% butanol prevented us from concluding whether PA was an important factor in raising PI(4,5)P(2) levels. To circumvent the use of alcohols, an ARF1 point mutant was identified (N52R-ARF1) that could selectively activate PIP 5-kinase alpha activity but not PLD activity. N52R-ARF1 was still able to increase PI(4,5)P(2) levels but at reduced efficiency. We therefore conclude that both PA derived from the PLD pathway and ARF proteins, by directly activating PIP 5-kinase, contribute to the regulation of PI(4,5)P(2) synthesis at the plasma membrane in HL60 cells.

Abstract
Type I and type II phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) kinases generate the lipid second messenger phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 4,5-bisphosphate and thus play fundamental roles in the regulation of many cellular processes. Although the two kinase families are highly homologous, they phosphorylate distinct substrates and are functionally non-redundant. Type I PIP kinases phosphorylate PtdIns 4-phosphate at the D-5 hydroxyl group and are consequently PtdIns 4-phosphate 5-kinases. By contrast, type II PIP kinases are PtdIns 5-phosphate 4-kinases that phosphorylate PtdIns 5-phosphate at the D-4 position. Type I PIP kinases, in addition, also phosphorylate other phosphoinositides in vitro and in vivo and thus have the potential to generate multiple lipid second messengers. To understand how these enzymes differentiate between stereoisomeric substrates, we used a site-directed mutagenesis approach. We show that a single amino acid substitution in the activation loop, A381E in IIbeta and the corresponding mutation E362A in Ibeta, is sufficient to swap substrate specificity between these PIP kinases. In addition to its role in substrate specificity, the type I activation loop is also key in subcellular targeting. The Ibeta(E362A) mutant and other mutants with reduced PtdIns 4-phosphate binding affinity were largely cytosolic when expressed in mammalian cells in contrast to wild-type Ibeta which targets to the plasma membrane. These results clearly establish the role of the activation loop in determining both signaling specificity and plasma membrane targeting of type I PIP kinases.

Abstract
Immune receptors are coupled to the activation of phosphatidylcholine phospholipase D (PC-PLD) that hydrolyses phosphatidylcholine to generate phosphatidic acid and choline. As these receptors are also coupled to other signalling cascades, it has been difficult to define the precise cell activation events resulting from PLD activation in the absence of specific inhibitors. There is increasing evidence that phosphatidic acid acts as an intracellular signalling molecule regulating release of calcium from intracellular stores, sphingosine kinase and protein kinase C activation and membrane budding. Phosphatidic acid can also be rapidly converted into lysophosphatidic acid, diacylglycerol and arachidonates.

Abstract
There has recently been considerable progress in understanding the regulation of clathrin-coated vesicle (CCV) formation and function. These advances are due to the determination of the structure of a number of CCV coat components at molecular resolution and the identification of novel regulatory proteins that control CCV formation in the cell. In addition, pathways of (a) phosphorylation, (b) receptor signaling, and (c) lipid modification that influence CCV formation, as well as the interaction between the cytoskeleton and CCV transport pathways are becoming better defined. It is evident that although clathrin coat assembly drives CCV formation, this fundamental reaction is modified by different regulatory proteins, depending on where CCVs are forming in the cell. This regulatory difference likely reflects the distinct biological roles of CCVs at the plasma membrane and trans-Golgi network, as well as the distinct properties of these membranes themselves. Tissue-specific functions of CCVs require even more-specialized regulation and defects in these pathways can now be correlated with human diseases.

Abstract
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) receptors (FcgammaRs) on myeloid cells are responsible for the internalization of immune complexes. Activation of the oxidase burst is an important component of the integrated cellular response mediated by Fc receptors. Previous work has demonstrated that, in interferon-gamma-primed U937 cells, the high-affinity receptor for IgG, FcgammaRI, is coupled to a novel intracellular signaling pathway that involves the sequential activation of phospholipase D (PLD), sphingosine kinase, and calcium transients. Here, it is shown that both known PLD isozymes, PLD1 and PLD2, were present in these cells. With the use of antisense oligonucleotides to specifically reduce the expression of either isozyme, PLD1, but not PLD2, was found to be coupled to FcgammaRI activation and be required to mediate receptor activation of sphingosine kinase and calcium transients. In addition, coupling of FcgammaRI to activation of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (reduced form) (NADPH) oxidase burst was inhibited by pretreating cells with 0.3% butan-1-ol, indicating an absolute requirement for PLD. Furthermore, use of antisense oligonucleotides to reduce expression of PLD1 or PLD2 demonstrated that PLD1 is required to couple FcgammaRI to the activation of NADPH oxidase and trafficking of internalized immune complexes for degradation. These studies demonstrate the critical role of PLD1 in the intracellular signaling cascades initiated by FcgammaRI and its functional role in coordinating the response to antigen-antibody complexes.

Abstract
We have previously identified synaptojanin 1, a phosphoinositide phosphatase predominantly expressed in the nervous system, and synaptojanin 2, a broadly expressed isoform. Synaptojanin 1 is concentrated in nerve terminals, where it has been implicated in synaptic vesicle recycling and actin function. Synaptojanin 2A is targeted to mitochondria via a PDZ domain-mediated interaction. We have now characterized an alternatively spliced form of synaptojanin 2 that shares several properties with synaptojanin 1. This isoform, synaptojanin 2B, undergoes further alternative splicing to generate synaptojanin 2B1 and 2B2. Both amphiphysin and endophilin, two partners synaptojanin 1, bind synaptojanin 2B2, whereas only amphiphysin binds synaptojanin 2B1. Sequence similar to the endophilin-binding site in synaptojanin 1 is present only in synaptojanin 2B2, and this sequence was capable of affinity purifying endophilin from rat brain. The Sac1 domain of synaptojanin 2 exhibited phosphoinositide phosphatase activity very similar to that of the Sac1 domain of synaptojanin 1. Site-directed mutagenesis further illustrated its functional similarity to the catalytic domain of Sac1 proteins. Antibodies raised against the synaptojanin 2B-specific carboxyl-terminal region identified a 160-kDa protein in brain and testis. Immunofluorescence showed that synaptojanin 2B is localized at nerve terminals in brain and at the spermatid manchette in testis. Active Rac1 GTPase affects the intracellular localization of synaptojanin 2, but not of synaptojanin 1. These results suggest that synaptojanin 2B has a partially overlapping function with synaptojanin 1 in nerve terminals, with additional roles in neurons and other cells including spermatids.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is a vesicular transport event involved in the internalization and recycling of receptors participating in signal transduction events and nutrient import as well as in the reformation of synaptic vesicles. Recent studies in vitro and in living cells have provided a number of new insights into the initial steps of clathrin-coated vesicle formation and the membrane factors involved in this process. The unexpected complexity of these interactions at the cytosol-membrane interface suggests that clathrin-coated vesicle assembly is a highly cooperative process occurring under tight regulatory control. In this review, we focus on the role of membrane proteins and lipids in the nucleation of clathrin-coated pits and provide a hypothetical model for the early steps in clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

Abstract
The amino-terminal domain of the clathrin heavy chain, which folds into a seven-bladed beta-propeller, binds directly to several endocytic proteins via short sequences based on the consensus residues LLDLD. In addition to a single LLDLD-based, type I clathrin-binding sequence, both amphiphysin and epsin contain a second, distinct sequence that is also capable of binding to clathrin directly. Here, we analyzed these sequences, which we term type II sequences, and show that the (257)LMDLA sequence in rat epsin 1 appears to be a weak clathrin-binding variant of the sequence (417)PWDLW originally found in human amphiphysin II. The structural features of the type II sequence required for association with clathrin are distinct from the LLDLD-based sequence. In the central segment of amphiphysin, the type I and type II sequences cooperate to effect optimal clathrin binding and the formation of sedimentable assemblies. Together, the data provide evidence for two interaction surfaces upon certain endocytic accessory proteins that could cooperate with other coat components to enhance clathrin bud formation at the cell surface.

Abstract
Synaptic vesicle biogenesis involves the recycling of synaptic vesicle components by clathrin-mediated endocytosis from the presynaptic membrane. stoned B, a protein encoded by the stoned locus in Drosophila melanogaster has been shown to regulate vesicle recycling by interacting with synaptotagmin. We report here the identification and characterization of a human homolog of stoned B (hStnB). Human stoned B is a brain-specific protein which co-enriches with other endocytic proteins such as AP-2 in a crude synaptic vesicle fraction and at nerve terminals. A domain with homology to the medium chain of adaptor complexes binds directly to both AP-2 and synaptotagmin and competes with AP-2 for the same binding site within synaptotagmin. Finally we show that the mu 2 homology domain of hStnB stimulates the uncoating of both clathrin and AP-2 adaptors from clathrin-coated vesicles. We hypothesize that hStnB regulates synaptic vesicle recycling by facilitating vesicle uncoating.

Abstract
We examined the effect of a cholesterol derivative, poly (ethylene glycol) cholesteryl ether on the structure/function of clathrin-coated pits and caveolae. Addition of the compound to cultured cells induced progressive smoothening of the surface. Markedly, when the incorporated amount exceeded 10% equivalent of the surface area, fluid pinocytosis, but not endocytosis of transferrin, became inhibited in K562 cells. In A431 cells, both clathrin-independent fluid phase uptake and the internalization of fluorescent cholera-toxin B through caveolae were inhibited with concomitant flattening of caveolae. In contrast, clathrin-mediated internalization of transferrin was not affected until the incorporated poly (ethylene glycol) cholesteryl ether exceeded 20% equivalent of the plasma membrane surface area, at which point opened clathrin-coated pits accumulated. The cells were ruptured upon further addition of poly (ethylene glycol) cholesteryl ether. We propose that the primary reason for the differential effect of poly (ethylene glycol) cholesteryl ether is that the bulk membrane phase and caveolae are both more elastic than the rigid clathrin-coated pits. We analyzed the results with the current mechanical model (Rauch and Farge, Biophys J 2000;78:3036-3047) and suggest here that the functional clathrin-lattice is much stiffer than typical phospholipid bilayers.

Abstract
Sphingosine 1-phosphate, lysophosphatidic acid, and phosphatidic acid bind to G-protein-coupled receptors to stimulate intracellular signaling in mammalian cells. Lipid phosphate phosphatases (1, 1a, 2, and 3) are a group of enzymes that catalyze de-phosphorylation of these lipid agonists. It has been proposed that the lipid phosphate phosphatases exhibit ecto activity that may function to limit bioavailability of these lipid agonists at their receptors. In this study, we show that the stimulation of the p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway by sphingosine 1-phosphate, lysophosphatidic acid, and phosphatidic acid, all of which bind to G(i/o)-coupled receptors, is substantially reduced in human embyronic kidney 293 cells transfected with lipid phosphate phosphatases 1, 1a, and 2 but not 3. This was correlated with reduced basal intracellular phosphatidic acid and not ecto lipid phosphate phosphatase activity. These findings were supported by results showing that lipid phosphate phosphatases 1, 1a, and 2 also abrogate the stimulation of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase by thrombin, a peptide G(i/o)-coupled receptor agonist whose bioavailability at its receptor is not subject to regulation by the phosphatases. Furthermore, the lipid phosphate phosphatases have no effect on the stimulation of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase by other agents that do not use G-proteins to signal, such as serum factors and phorbol ester. Therefore, these findings show that the lipid phosphate phosphatases 1, 1a, and 2 may function to perturb G-protein-coupled receptor signaling per se rather than limiting bioavailability of lipid agonists at their respective receptors.

Abstract
Inositol phospholipids represent a minor fraction of membrane phospholipids; yet they play important regulatory functions in signaling pathways and membrane traffic. The phosphorylated inositol ring can act either as a precursor for soluble intracellular messengers or as a binding site for cytosolic or membrane proteins. Hence, phosphorylation-dephosphorylation of phosphoinositides represents a mechanism for regulation of recruitment to the membrane of coat proteins, cytoskeletal scaffolds or signaling complexes and for the regulation of membrane proteins. Recent work suggests that phosphoinositide metabolism has an important role in membrane traffic at the synapse. PtdIns(4,5)P(2) generation is implicated in the secretion of at least a subset of neurotransmitters. Furthermore, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) plays a role in the nucleation of clathrin coats and of an actin-based cytoskeletal scaffold at endocytic zones of synapses, and PtdIns(4,5)P(2) dephosphorylation accompanies the release of newly formed vesicles from these interactions. Thus, the reversible phosphorylation of inositol phospholipids may be one of the mechanisms governing the timing and vectorial progression of synaptic vesicle membranes during their exocytic-endocytic cycle.

Abstract
Interaction of mesangial cells with extracellular matrix proteins can provide a means to modify cellular anchorage and traction through an interaction of integrins with activation of the actin cytoskeleton. We investigated intracellular signalling of matrix components fibronectin and laminin in mesangial cells in monolayer and 3-dimensional configurations to show a fibronectin-dependent activation of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase (up to threefold), which is augmented by a laminin-dependent increase in phospholipase D activity. Functional responsiveness to fibronectin and laminin addition was seen in the contraction of free-floating 3-dimensional mesangial cell-embedded collagen gels, a well-defined system reflecting coupling of extracellular matrix-cell events to activation of the actin cytoskeleton. Activation of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase and contraction of mesangial cell-embedded collagen gels in response to fibronectin and laminin were inhibited by pretreatment of mesangial cells with lovastatin and restored by isoprenoid augmentation with geranylgeraniol, supporting a role for the ras-related protein Rho in this process.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is a special form of vesicle budding important for the internalization of receptors and extracellular ligands, for the recycling of plasma membrane components, and for the retrieval of surface proteins destined for degradation. In nerve terminals, clathrin-mediated endocytosis is crucial for synaptic vesicle recycling. Recent structural studies have provided molecular details of coat assembly. In addition, biochemical and genetic studies have identified numerous accessory proteins that assist the clathrin coat in its function at synapses and in other systems. This review summarizes these advances with a special focus on accessory factors and highlights new aspects of clathrin-mediated endocytosis revealed by the study of these factors.

Abstract
Adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation factor (Arf) proteins are members of the Arf arm of the Ras superfamily of guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding proteins. Arfs are named for their activity as cofactors for cholera toxin-catalyzed adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation of the heterotrimeric G protein Gs. Physiologically, Arfs regulate membrane traffic and the actin cytoskeleton. Arfs function both constitutively within the secretory pathway and as targets of signal transduction in the cell periphery. In each case, the controlled binding and hydrolysis of GTP is critical to Arf function. The activities of some guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)-activating proteins (GAPs) are stimulated by phosphoinositides, including phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), and phosphatidic acid (PA), likely providing both a means to respond to regulatory signals and a mechanism to coordinate GTP binding and hydrolysis. Arfs affect membrane traffic in part by recruiting coat proteins, including COPI and clathrin adaptor complexes, to membranes. However, Arf function likely involves many additional biochemical activities. Arf activates phospholipase D and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase with the consequent production of PA and PIP2, respectively. In addition to mediating Arf's effects on membrane traffic and the actin cytoskeleton, PA and PIP2 are involved in the regulation of Arf. Arf also works with Rho family proteins to affect the actin cytoskeleton. Several Arf-binding proteins suspected to be effectors have been identified in two-hybrid screens. Arf-dependent biochemical activities, actin cytoskeleton changes, and membrane trafficking may be integrally related. Understanding Arf's role in complex cellular functions such as protein secretion or cell movement will involve a description of the temporal and spatial coordination of these multiple Arf-dependent events.

Abstract
The synaptic vesicle protein synaptotagmin was proposed to act as a major docking site for the recruitment of clathrin coats implicated in endocytosis, including the recycling of synaptic vesicles. We show here that the C2B domain of synaptotagmin binds mu2- and alpha-adaptin, two of the four subunits of the endocytic adaptor complex AP-2. mu2 represents the major interacting subunit of AP-2 within this complex. Its binding to synaptotagmin is mediated by a site in subdomain B that is distinct from the binding site for tyrosine-based sorting motifs located in subdomain A. The presence of the C2B domain of synaptotagmin at the surface of liposomes enhances the recruitment of AP-2 and clathrin. Conversely, perturbation of the interaction between synaptotagmin and AP-2 by synprint, the cytoplasmic synaptotagmin-binding domain of N-type calcium channels, inhibits transferrin internalization in living cells. We conclude that a dual interaction of synaptotagmin with the clathrin adaptor AP-2 plays a key physiological role in the nucleation of endocytic clathrin-coated pits.

Abstract
The present review focuses on the relationship between formation of N-acylethanolamine phospholipids (NAPEs) and N-acyletransferase (NAEs) catalyzed by N-acyltranferase and NAPE-hydrolyzing phospholipase D, respectively, and cell injury in tissues like brain, heart, and testis. A number of mechanisms are proposed by which these two groups of lipids may have cytoprotective properties. The mechanisms may involve activation of cannabinoid receptors, as well as non-receptor-mediated effects such as stabilization of membrane bilayers, antioxidant mechanisms, inhibition of calcium leakage from mitochondria, and direct inhibition of ceramidase. Anandamide (20:4-NAE) is formed as a minor component along with other NAEs during cell injury. Whether 20:4-NAE has a separate physiological role is at present not known, but some data suggest that 20:4-NAE may be formed, e.g. in the uterus, by a more selective mechanism without being accompanied by a vast majority of saturated and monounsaturated NAEs.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are localized in various intracellular compartments and can regulate a number of intracellular functions, such as cytoskeletal dynamics and membrane trafficking. Phospholipase Ds (PLDs) are regulated enzymes that hydrolyse phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) to generate the putative second messenger phosphatidic acid (PtdOH). In vitro, PLDs have an absolute requirement for higher phosphorylated inositides, such as phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)]. Whether this lipid is able to regulate the activity of PLD in vivo is contentious. To examine this hypothesis we studied the relationship between PLD and an enzyme critical for the intracellular synthesis of PtdIns(4,5)P(2): phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase alpha (Type Ialpha PIPkinase). We find that both PLD1 and PLD2 interact with the Type Ialpha PIPkinase and that PLD2 activity in vivo can be regulated solely by the expression of this lipid kinase. Moreover, PLD2 is able to recruit the Type Ialpha PIPkinase to its intracellular location. We show that the physiological requirement of PLD enzymes for PtdIns(4,5)P(2) is critical and that PLD2 activity can be regulated solely by the levels of this key intracellular lipid.

Abstract
Coordination between sequential steps in synaptic vesicle endocytosis, including clathrin coat formation, fission, and uncoating, appears to involve proteinprotein interactions. Here, we show that compounds that disrupt interactions of the SH3 domain of endophilin with dynamin and synaptojanin impair synaptic vesicle endocytosis in a living synapse. Two distinct endocytic intermediates accumulated. Free clathrin-coated vesicles were induced by a peptide-blocking endophilin's SH3 domain and by antibodies to the proline-rich domain (PRD) of synaptojanin. Invaginated clathrin-coated pits were induced by the same peptide and by the SH3 domain of endophilin. We suggest that the SH3 domain of endophilin participates in both fission and uncoating and that it may be a key component of a molecular switch that couples the fission reaction to uncoating.

Abstract
Despite the fact that phosphatidic acid (PtdOH) has been implicated as a lipid second messenger for nearly a decade, its intracellular targets have remained unclear. We sought to investigate how an increase in the level of PtdOH could modulate phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIPkin), an enzyme involved in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate synthesis. Transfection of porcine aortic endothelial (PAE) cells with haemagglutinin (HA)-tagged type Ialpha PIPkin followed by immunofluorescence confocal microscopy revealed the enzyme to be localised to the plasma membrane. When the transfected PAE cells were stimulated with lyso-PtdOH, increased PIPkin activity was found to be associated with HA immunoprecipitates in an in vitro assay. This PIPkin activation was found to be greatly reduced by prior treatment of the cells with 1-butanol, thereby implicating phospholipase D (PLD) as the in vivo generator of PtdOH. In order to determine if the PtdOH-dependent activation of type Ialpha PIPkin was dictated by a specific molecular composition of PtdOH, the wild type murine and porcine alpha isoforms of diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) were individually co-transfected along with type Ialpha PIPkin. Under these conditions an increase in type Ialpha PIPkin lipid kinase activity was found in HA immunoprecipitates in an in vitro assay. No increases in lipid kinase activity were observed when type Ialpha PIPkin was co-transfected with either the human DGKepsilon isoform or a kinase-dead mutant of the murine DGKalpha isoform. These results provide the first direct evidence for the unification of the production of saturated/monounsaturated PtdOH (through two different routes, PLD and DGK) and the in vivo activation of type Ialpha PIPkin by this lipid second messenger.

Abstract
Two distinct proteins inhibiting phospholipase D (PLD) activity in rat brain cytosol were previously purified and identified as synaptojanin and AP180, which are specific to nerve terminals and associate with the clathrin coat. Two additional PLD-inhibitory proteins have now been purified and identified as the amphiphysins I and II, which forms a heterodimer that also associates with the clathrin coat. Bacterially expressed recombinant amphiphysins inhibited both PLD1 and PLD2 isozymes in vitro with a potency similar to that of brain amphiphysin (median inhibitory concentration of approximately 15 nm). Expressions of either amphiphysin in COS-7 cells reduced activity of endogenous PLD as well as exogenously expressed PLD1 and PLD2. Coprecipitation experiments suggested that the inhibitory effect of amphiphysins results from their direct interaction with PLDs. The NH(2) terminus of amphiphysin I was critical for both inhibition of and binding to PLD. Phosphatidic acid formed by signal-induced PLD is thought to be required for the assembly of clathrin-coated vesicles during endocytosis. Thus, the inhibition of PLD by amphiphysins, synaptojanin, and AP180 might play an important role in synaptic vesicle trafficking.

Abstract
Synaptic vesicles are recycled with remarkable speed and precision in nerve terminals. A major recycling pathway involves clathrin-mediated endocytosis at endocytic zones located around sites of release. Different 'accessory' proteins linked to this pathway have been shown to alter the shape and composition of lipid membranes, to modify membrane-coat protein interactions, and to influence actin polymerization. These include the GTPase dynamin, the lysophosphatidic acid acyl transferase endophilin, and the phosphoinositide phosphatase synaptojanin. Protein perturbation studies in living nerve terminals are now beginning to link the actions of these proteins with morphologically defined steps of endocytosis.

Abstract
We have investigated the requirement for Ca(2+) in the fusion and content mixing of rat hepatocyte late endosomes and lysosomes in a cell-free system. Fusion to form hybrid organelles was inhibited by 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy) ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA), but not by EGTA, and this inhibition was reversed by adding additional Ca(2+). Fusion was also inhibited by methyl ester of EGTA (EGTA-AM), a membrane permeable, hydrolyzable ester of EGTA, and pretreatment of organelles with EGTA-AM showed that the chelation of lumenal Ca(2+) reduced the amount of fusion. The requirement for Ca(2+) for fusion was a later event than the requirement for a rab protein since the system became resistant to inhibition by GDP dissociation inhibitor at earlier times than it became resistant to BAPTA. We have developed a cell-free assay to study the reformation of lysosomes from late endosome-lysosome hybrid organelles that were isolated from the rat liver. The recovery of electron dense lysosomes was shown to require ATP and was inhibited by bafilomycin and EGTA-AM. The data support a model in which endocytosed Ca(2+) plays a role in the fusion of late endosomes and lysosomes, the reformation of lysosomes, and the dynamic equilibrium of organelles in the late endocytic pathway.

Abstract
Recent data both from cell-free experiments and from cultured cells have shown that lysosomes can fuse directly with late endosomes to form a hybrid organelle. This has a led to a hypothesis that dense core lysosomes are in essence storage granules for acid hydrolases and that, when the former fuse with late endosomes, a hybrid organelle for digestion of endocytosed macromolecules is created. Lysosomes are then re-formed from hybrid organelles by a process involving condensation of contents. In this Commentary we review the evidence for formation of the hybrid organelles and discuss the current status of our understanding of the mechanisms of fusion and lysosome re-formation. We also review lysosome biosynthesis, showing how recent studies of lysosome-like organelles including the yeast vacuole, Drosophila eye pigment granules and mammalian secretory lysosomes have identified novel proteins involved in this process.

Abstract
In mammalian cells, activation of a Golgi-associated phospholipase D by ADP-ribosylation factor results in the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine to form phosphatidic acid (PA). This reaction stimulates the release of nascent secretory vesicles from the trans-Golgi network of endocrine cells. To understand the role of PA in mediating secretion, we have exploited the transphosphatidylation activity of phospholipase D. Rat anterior pituitary GH3 cells, which secrete growth hormone and prolactin, were treated with 1-butanol resulting in the synthesis of phosphatidylbutanol rather than PA. Under these conditions transport from the ER through the Golgi apparatus and secretion of polypeptide hormones were inhibited quantitatively. Furthermore, the in vitro synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) by Golgi membranes was inhibited quantitatively. Most significantly, in the presence of 1-butanol the architecture of the Golgi apparatus was disrupted, resulting in its disassembly and fragmentation. Removal of the alcohol resulted in the rapid restoration of Golgi structure and secretion of growth hormone and prolactin. Our results suggest that PA stimulation of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis is required for maintaining the structural integrity and function of the Golgi apparatus.

Epsin is a recently identified protein that appears to play an important role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. The central region of epsin 1, the so-called DPW domain, binds to the heterotetrameric AP-2 adaptor complex by associating directly with the globular appendage of the alpha subunit. We have found that this central portion of epsin 1 also associates with clathrin. The interaction with clathrin is direct and not mediated by epsin-bound AP-2. Alanine scanning mutagenesis shows that clathrin binding depends on the sequence (257)LMDLADV located within the epsin 1 DPW domain. This sequence, related to the known clathrin-binding sequences in the adaptor beta subunits, amphiphysin, and beta-arrestin, facilitates the association of epsin 1 with the terminal domain of the clathrin heavy chain. Unexpectedly, inhibiting the binding of AP-2 to the GST-epsin DPW fusion protein by progressively deleting DPW triplets but leaving the LMDLADV sequence intact, diminishes the association of clathrin in parallel with AP-2. Because the beta subunit of the AP-2 complex also contains a clathrin-binding site, optimal association with soluble clathrin appears to depend on the presence of at least two distinct clathrin-binding sites, and we show that a second clathrin-binding sequence (480)LVDLD, located within the carboxyl-terminal segment of epsin 1, also interacts with clathrin directly. The LMDLADV and LVDLD sequences act cooperatively in clathrin recruitment assays, suggesting that they bind to different sites on the clathrin-terminal domain. The evolutionary conservation of similar clathrin-binding sequences in several metazoan epsin-like molecules suggests that the ability to establish multiple protein-protein contacts within a developing clathrin-coated bud is an important aspect of epsin function.

Abstract
The phospholipid phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate (PIP(2)) has recently been shown to act downstream of the small G proteins Rac and Arf. Different effectors may be employed in each case, suggesting that PIP(2) has multiple signalling roles.

Abstract
Treatment of HeLa cells overexpressing PLD2 with the Ser/Thr-specific protein phosphatase inhibitor, okadaic acid, augmented spontaneous phosphorylation of PLD2 with concomitant inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2))-stimulated PLD2 activity. Dephosphorylation of the immunoprecipitated, spontaneously phosphorylated PLD2 in COS-7 cells by catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 1gamma1 resulted in the stimulation of the PLD2 catalytic activity. These observations suggest that Ser/Thr phosphorylation regulates PLD2 activity.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cell proliferation and survival, cytoskeletal reorganization, and membrane trafficking. However, little is known about the temporal and spatial regulation of its synthesis. Higher eukaryotic cells have the potential to use two distinct pathways for the generation of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate. These pathways require two classes of phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinases, termed type I and type II PIP kinases. While highly related by sequence, these kinases localize to different subcellular compartments, phosphorylate distinct substrates, and are functionally nonredundant. Here, we show that a 20- to 25-amino acid loop spanning the catalytic site, termed the activation loop, determines both enzymatic specificity and subcellular targeting of PIP kinases. Therefore, the activation loop controls signaling specificity and PIP kinase function at multiple levels.

Abstract
Lowe syndrome is an X-linked disorder that has a complex phenotype that includes progressive renal failure and blindness. The disease is caused by mutations in an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase designated OCRL. It has been shown that the OCRL protein is found on the surface of lysosomes and that a renal tubular cell line deficient in OCRL accumulated substrate phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate. Because this lipid is required for vesicle trafficking from lysosomes, we postulate that there is a defect in lysosomal enzyme trafficking in patients with Lowe syndrome that leads to increased extracellular lysosomal enzymes and might lead to tissue damage and contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease. We have measured seven lysosomal enzymes in the plasma of 15 patients with Lowe syndrome and 15 age-matched male controls. We find a 1.6- to 2.0-fold increase in all of the enzymes measured. When the data was analyzed by quintiles of activity for all of the enzymes, we found that 95% of values in the lowest quintile come from normal subjects whereas in the highest quintile 85% of the values are from patients with Lowe syndrome. The increased enzyme levels are not attributable to renal insufficiency because there was no difference in enzyme activity in the four patients with the highest creatinine levels compared with the six patients with the lowest creatinine values.

Abstract
Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is a major source of lipid-derived second messenger molecules that function as both intracellular and extracellular signals. PC-specific phospholipase D (PLD) and phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase (PAP) are two pivotal enzymes in this signaling system, and they act in series to generate the biologically active lipids phosphatidic acid (PA) and diglyceride. The identity of the PAP enzyme involved in PLD-mediated signal transduction is unclear. We provide the first evidence for a functional role of a type 2 PAP, PAP2b, in the metabolism of PLD-generated PA. Our data indicate that PAP2b localizes to regions of the cell in which PC hydrolysis by PLD is taking place. Using a newly developed PAP2b-specific antibody, we have characterized the expression, posttranslational modification, and localization of endogenous PAP2b. Glycosylation and localization of PAP2b appear to be cell type and tissue specific. Biochemical fractionation and immunoprecipitation analyses revealed that PAP2b and PLD2 activities are present in caveolin-1-enriched detergent-resistant membrane microdomains. We found that PLD2 and PAP2b act sequentially to generate diglyceride within this specialized membrane compartment. The unique lipid composition of these membranes may provide a selective environment for the regulation and actions of enzymes involved in signaling through PC hydrolysis.

Abstract
Growing evidence suggests that phosphoinositides play an important role in membrane traffic. A polyphosphoinositide phosphatase, synaptojanin 1, was identified as a major presynaptic protein associated with endocytic coated intermediates. We report here that synaptojanin 1-deficient mice exhibit neurological defects and die shortly after birth. In neurons of mutant animals, PI(4,5)P2 levels are increased, and clathrin-coated vesicles accumulate in the cytomatrix-rich area that surrounds the synaptic vesicle cluster in nerve endings. In cell-free assays, reduced phosphoinositide phosphatase activity correlated with increased association of clathrin coats with liposomes. Intracellular recording in hippocampal slices revealed enhanced synaptic depression during prolonged high-frequency stimulation followed by delayed recovery. These results provide genetic evidence for a crucial role of phosphoinositide metabolism in synaptic vesicle recycling.
