Abstract
Receptor tyrosine kinases such as EGF receptor (EGFR) stimulate phosphoinositide 3 kinases to convert phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosophate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] into phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3]. PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 then remodels actin and gene expression, and boosts cell survival and proliferation. PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 partly achieves these functions by triggering activation of the kinase Akt, which phosphorylates targets like Tsc2 and GSK3β. Consequently, unchecked upregulation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-Akt signaling promotes tumor progression. Interestingly, 50-70% of PtdIns and PtdInsPs have stearate and arachidonate at sn-1 and sn-2 positions of glycerol, respectively, forming a species known as 38:4-PtdIns/PtdInsPs. LCLAT1 and MBOAT7 acyltransferases partly enrich PtdIns in this acyl format. We previously showed that disruption of LCLAT1 lowered PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels and perturbed endocytosis and endocytic trafficking. However, the role of LCLAT1 in receptor tyrosine kinase and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 signaling was not explored. Here, we show that LCLAT1 silencing in MDA-MB-231 and ARPE-19 cells abated the levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 in response to EGF signaling. Importantly, LCLAT1-silenced cells were also impaired for EGF-driven and insulin-driven Akt activation and downstream signaling. Thus, our work provides first evidence that the LCLAT1 acyltransferase is required for receptor tyrosine kinase signaling.

Paixao IC, Mizutani N, Matsuda M, Andriani RT, Kawai T, Nakagawa A, Okochi Y, Okamura Y. Role of K364 next to the active site cysteine in voltage-dependent phosphatase activity of Ci-VSP. Biophys J 2023:S0006-3495(23)00038-3. [PMID: 36680342 DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2023.01.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2022] [Revised: 10/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Voltage-sensing phosphatase (VSP) consists of the voltage sensor domain (VSD) similar to that of voltage-gated ion channels and the cytoplasmic phosphatase region with remarkable similarity to the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN). Membrane depolarization activates VSD, leading to dephosphorylation of three species of phosphoinositides (phosphatidylinositol phosphates (PIPs)), PI(3,4,5)P3, PI(4,5)P2, and PI(3,4)P2. VSP dephosphorylates 3- and 5-phosphate of PIPs, unlike PTEN, which shows rigid 3-phosphate specificity. In this study, a bioinformatics search showed that some mammals have VSP orthologs with amino acid diversity in the active center motif, Cx5R, which is highly conserved among protein tyrosine phosphatases and PTEN-related phosphatases; lysine next to the active site cysteine in the Cx5R motif was substituted for methionine in VSP orthologs of Tasmanian devil, koala, and prairie deer mouse, and leucine in opossum. Since lysine at the corresponding site in PTEN is known to be critical for enzyme activities, we attempted to address the significance of amino acid diversity among VSP orthologs at this site. K364 was changed to different amino acids in sea squirt VSP (Ci-VSP), and voltage-dependent phosphatase activity in Xenopus oocyte was studied using fluorescent probes for PI(4,5)P2 and PI(3,4)P2. All mutants retained both 5-phosphatase and 3-phosphatase activity, indicating that lysine at this site is dispensable for 3-phosphatase activity, unlike PTEN. Notably, K364M mutant showed increased activity both of 5-phosphatase and 3-phosphatase compared with the wild type (WT). It also showed slower kinetics of voltage sensor motion. Malachite green assay of K364M mutant did not show significant difference of phosphatase activity from WT, suggesting tighter interaction between substrate binding and voltage sensing. Mutation corresponding to K364M in the zebrafish VSP led to enhanced voltage-dependent dephosphorylation of PI(4,5)P2. Further studies will provide clues to understanding of substrate preference in PIPs phosphatases as well as to customization of a molecular tool.

Abstract
We present unresolved questions in plant abiotic stress biology as posed by 15 research groups with expertise spanning eco-physiology to cell and molecular biology. Common themes of these questions include the need to better understand how plants detect water availability, temperature, salinity, and rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels; how environmental signals interface with endogenous signaling and development (e.g. circadian clock and flowering time); and how this integrated signaling controls downstream responses (e.g. stomatal regulation, proline metabolism, and growth versus defense balance). The plasma membrane comes up frequently as a site of key signaling and transport events (e.g. mechanosensing and lipid-derived signaling, aquaporins). Adaptation to water extremes and rising CO2 affects hydraulic architecture and transpiration, as well as root and shoot growth and morphology, in ways not fully understood. Environmental adaptation involves tradeoffs that limit ecological distribution and crop resilience in the face of changing and increasingly unpredictable environments. Exploration of plant diversity within and among species can help us know which of these tradeoffs represent fundamental limits and which ones can be circumvented by bringing new trait combinations together. Better defining what constitutes beneficial stress resistance in different contexts and making connections between genes and phenotypes, and between laboratory and field observations, are overarching challenges.

Abstract
Abstract
The endolysosomal system of eukaryotic cells has a key role in the homeostasis of the plasma membrane, in signaling and nutrient uptake, and is abused by viruses and pathogens for entry. Endocytosis of plasma membrane proteins results in vesicles, which fuse with the early endosome. If destined for lysosomal degradation, these proteins are packaged into intraluminal vesicles, converting an early endosome to a late endosome, which finally fuses with the lysosome. Each of these organelles has a unique membrane surface composition, which can form segmented membrane microcompartments by membrane contact sites or fission proteins. Furthermore, these organelles are in continuous exchange due to fission and fusion events. The underlying machinery, which maintains organelle identity along the pathway, is regulated by signaling processes. Here, we will focus on the Rab5 and Rab7 GTPases of early and late endosomes. As molecular switches, Rabs depend on activating guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). Over the last years, we characterized the Rab7 GEF, the Mon1-Ccz1 (MC1) complex, and key Rab7 effectors, the HOPS complex and retromer. Structural and functional analyses of these complexes lead to a molecular understanding of their function in the context of organelle biogenesis.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) is an anionic phospholipid which has been described as a master regulator of the Golgi apparatus in eukaryotic cells. However, recent evidence suggests that PI4P mainly accumulates at the plasma membrane in all plant cells analyzed so far. In addition, many functions that are typically attributed to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2 ) in animal and yeast cells are also supported by PI4P in plants. For example, PI4P is the key anionic lipid that powers the strong electrostatic properties of the plasma membrane. Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate is also required for the establishment of stable membrane contacts between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane, for exocytosis and to support signaling pathways. Thus, we propose that PI4P has a prominent role in specifying the identity of the plasma membrane and in supporting some of its key functions and should be considered a hallmark lipid of this compartment.
