Abstract
Despite their low abundance, phosphoinositides play a central role in membrane traffic and signalling. PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(3,4)P2 are uniquely important, as they promote cell growth, survival and migration. Pathogenic organisms have developed means to subvert phosphoinositide metabolism to promote successful infection and their survival in host organisms. We demonstrate that PtdIns(3,4)P2 is a major product generated in host cells by the effectors of the enteropathogenic bacteria Salmonella and Shigella. Pharmacological, gene silencing and heterologous expression experiments revealed that, remarkably, the biosynthesis of PtdIns(3,4)P2 occurs independently of phosphoinositide 3-kinases. Instead, we found that the Salmonella effector SopB, heretofore believed to be a phosphatase, generates PtdIns(3,4)P2 de novo via a phosphotransferase/phosphoisomerase mechanism. Recombinant SopB is capable of generating PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(3,4)P2 from PtdIns(4,5)P2 in a cell-free system. Through a remarkable instance of convergent evolution, bacterial effectors acquired the ability to synthesize 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides by an ATP- and kinase-independent mechanism, thereby subverting host signalling to gain entry and even provoke oncogenic transformation.

Abstract
Inositol phosphorylceramide (IPC), the major sphingolipid in the genus Leishmania but not found in mammals, is considered a potentially useful target for chemotherapy against leishmaniasis. Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis is endemic in Latin America and causes American tegumentary leishmaniasis. We demonstrated that IPCs are localized internally in parasites, using a specific monoclonal antibody. Treatment with 5 μM myriocin (a serine palmitoyltransferase inhibitor) rendered promastigotes 8-fold less infective than controls in experimental hamster infection, as determined by number of parasites per inguinal lymph node after 8 weeks infection, suggesting the importance of parasite IPC or sphingolipid derivatives in parasite infectivity or survival in the host. IPC was isolated from promastigotes of three L. (V.) braziliensis strains and analyzed by positive- and negative-ion ESI-MS. The major IPC ions were characterized as eicosasphinganine and eicosasphingosine. Negative-ion ESI-MS revealed IPC ion species at m/z 778.6 (d20:1/14:0), 780.6 (d20:0/14:0), 796.6 (t20:0/14:0), 806.6 (d20:1/16:0), and 808.6 (d20:0/16:0). IPCs isolated from L. (V.) braziliensis and L. (L.) major showed significant differences in IPC ceramide composition. The major IPC ion from L. (L.) major, detected in negative-ion ESI-MS at m/z 780.6, was composed of ceramide d16:1/18:0. Our results suggest that sphingosine synthase (also known as serine palmitoyltransferase; SPT) in L. (V.) braziliensis is responsible for synthesis of a long-chain base of 20 carbons (d20), whereas SPT in L. (L.) major synthesizes a 16-carbon long-chain base (d16). A phylogenetic tree based on SPT proteins was constructed by analysis of sequence homologies in species of the Leishmania and Viannia subgenera. Results indicate that SPT gene position in L. (V.) braziliensis is completely separated from that of members of subgenus Leishmania, including L. (L.) major, L. (L.) infantum, and L. (L.) mexicana. Our findings clearly demonstrate sphingoid base differences between L. (V.) braziliensis and members of subgenus Leishmania, and are relevant to future development of more effective targeted anti-leishmaniasis drugs.

Abstract
Class I PI 3-kinases signal by producing the signaling lipid phosphatidylinositol(3,4,5) trisphosphate, which in turn acts by recruiting downstream effectors that contain specific lipid-binding domains. The class I PI 3-kinases comprise four distinct catalytic subunits linked to one of seven different regulatory subunits. All the class I PI 3-kinases produce the same signaling lipid, PIP3, and the different isoforms have overlapping expression patterns and are coupled to overlapping sets of upstream activators. Nonetheless, studies in cultured cells and in animals have demonstrated that the different isoforms are coupled to distinct ranges of downstream responses. This review focuses on the mechanisms by which the production of a common product, PIP3, can produce isoform-specific signaling by PI 3-kinases.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) make up only a small fraction of cellular phospholipids, yet they control almost all aspects of a cell's life and death. These lipids gained tremendous research interest as plasma membrane signaling molecules when discovered in the 1970s and 1980s. Research in the last 15 years has added a wide range of biological processes regulated by PIs, turning these lipids into one of the most universal signaling entities in eukaryotic cells. PIs control organelle biology by regulating vesicular trafficking, but they also modulate lipid distribution and metabolism via their close relationship with lipid transfer proteins. PIs regulate ion channels, pumps, and transporters and control both endocytic and exocytic processes. The nuclear phosphoinositides have grown from being an epiphenomenon to a research area of its own. As expected from such pleiotropic regulators, derangements of phosphoinositide metabolism are responsible for a number of human diseases ranging from rare genetic disorders to the most common ones such as cancer, obesity, and diabetes. Moreover, it is increasingly evident that a number of infectious agents hijack the PI regulatory systems of host cells for their intracellular movements, replication, and assembly. As a result, PI converting enzymes began to be noticed by pharmaceutical companies as potential therapeutic targets. This review is an attempt to give an overview of this enormous research field focusing on major developments in diverse areas of basic science linked to cellular physiology and disease.

Abstract
The capacity to monitor spatiotemporal activity of phospholipase C (PLC) isozymes with a PLC-selective sensor would dramatically enhance understanding of the physiological function and disease relevance of these signaling proteins. Previous structural and biochemical studies defined critical roles for several of the functional groups of the endogenous substrate of PLC isozymes, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)), indicating that these sites cannot be readily modified without compromising interactions with the lipase active site. However, the role of the 6-hydroxy group of PIP(2) for interaction and hydrolysis by PLC has not been explored, possibly due to challenges in synthesizing 6-hydroxy derivatives. Here, we describe an efficient route for the synthesis of novel, fluorescent PIP(2) derivatives modified at the 6-hydroxy group. Two of these derivatives were used in assays of PLC activity in which the fluorescent PIP(2) substrates were separated from their diacylglycerol products and reaction rates quantified by fluorescence. Both PIP(2) analogues effectively function as substrates of PLC-δ1, and the K(M) and V(max) values obtained with one of these are similar to those observed with native PIP(2) substrate. These results indicate that the 6-hydroxy group can be modified to develop functional substrates for PLC isozymes, thereby serving as the foundation for further development of PLC-selective sensors.

Abstract
Phospholipase C-beta (PLC-beta) isozymes are key effectors in G protein-coupled signaling pathways. Previously, we showed that PLC-beta1 and PLC-beta3 bound immobilized PIP(3). In this study, PIP(3) was found to potentiate Ca(2+)-stimulated PLC-beta activities using an in vitro reconstitution assay. LY294002, a specific PI 3-kinase inhibitor, significantly inhibited 10 min of agonist-stimulated total IP accumulation. Both LY294002 and wortmannin inhibited 90 sec of agonist-stimulated IP(3) accumulation in intact cells. Moreover, transfected p110CAAX, a constitutively activated PI 3-kinase catalytic subunit, increased 90 sec of oxytocin-stimulated IP(3) accumulation. Receptor-ligand binding assays indicated that LY294002 did not affect G protein-coupled receptors directly, suggesting a physiological role for PIP(3) in directly potentiating PLC-beta activity. When coexpressed with p110CAAX, fluorescence-tagged PLC-beta3 was increasingly localized to the plasma membrane. Additional observations suggest that the PH domain of PLC-beta is not important for p110CAAX-induced membrane association.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) controls a surprisingly large number of processes in cells. Thus, many investigators have suggested that there might be different pools of PIP(2) on the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. If a significant fraction of PIP(2) is bound electrostatically to unstructured clusters of basic residues on membrane proteins, the PIP(2) diffusion constant, D, should be reduced. We microinjected micelles of Bodipy TMR-PIP(2) into cells, and we measured D on the inner leaflet of fibroblasts and epithelial cells by using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. The average +/- SD value from all cell types was D = 0.8 +/- 0.2 microm(2)/s (n = 218; 25 degrees C). This is threefold lower than the D in blebs formed on Rat1 cells, D = 2.5 +/- 0.8 microm(2)/s (n = 26). It is also significantly lower than the D in the outer leaflet or in giant unilamellar vesicles and the diffusion coefficient for other lipids on the inner leaflet of these cell membranes. The simplest interpretation is that approximately two thirds of the PIP(2) on inner leaflet of these plasma membranes is bound reversibly.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K) and phospholipase C (PLC) utilize the same phosphoinositides as substrates to produce different signaling molecules. These enzymes are activated by a similar set of cell signaling mechanisms, i.e., tyrosine kinases and G proteins, and affect common cell functions, including proliferation, motility, and intracellular trafficking. Despite these similarities, the interplay between these enzymes is not well understood. To address this issue, the effects of the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 on carbachol-induced calcium increase in PC12h cells were examined. As carbachol stimulates both Gq- and Gi-coupled muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs), PI3K and PLC are activated simultaneously in this protocol. LY294002 was found to reduce the carbachol-induced calcium increase, and the reduction was attributed to suppression of calcium entry. As LY294002 did not affect either carbachol-induced calcium release or calcium entry induced by calcium store depletion, this agent was found to suppress calcium entry directly activated by mAChRs. Although PI3K was supposed to compete for substrates with PLC, the PI3K inhibitor did not enhance PLC-dependent cellular responses. As LY294002 was still effective by treating cells after carbachol stimulation, it is likely that this agent blocks the calcium entry channels directly.

Abstract
A number of deoxyfluoro cyclitols have been synthesized and evaluated as probes of the phosphatidylinositol pathway (PtdIns pathway), most notably 5-deoxy-5-fluoro-myo-inositol, which is incorporated into the pathway at about 25% the level of myo-inositol itself. Unfortunately, none of the cyclitols have proved effective in limiting cell proliferation, as the cells are able to 'synthesize around' the fraudulent cyclitols using natural myo-inositol as substrate. Inhibitors for 3-phosphatidylinositol kinase, which has importance in a number of pathological conditions, including cancer, have been intensively investigated. 3-Deoxy-3-fluoro-myo-inositol is incorporated into the PtdIns pathway; however, only related phosphatidyl derivatives, for example, a methyl ether derivative of the 3-deoxy inositol, showed significant antiproliferative activity. Synthesis of the deoxyfluoro analogues most often has been accomplished by DAST fluoro-de-hydroxylation of the appropriate cyclitol, generally leading to products of inversion.

Activation of T lymphocytes results in immediate intracellular biochemical changes, including increases in cytosolic Ca(2+) levels, stimulation of protein kinase C (PKC) and regulation of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs). This review describes recent advances in the study of the signalling steps downstream of PKC and PTKs in T cells. A model is presented in which the GTP-binding protein p21(ras) acts as an integrator of the signal transduction pathways controlled by the T-cell antigen receptor.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P(2)) is the most recently discovered PtdInsP(2) isomer. It is likely that PtdIns(3,5)P(2) is ubiquitous to eukaryotes, and that it performs a number of important cellular functions, including vacuolar homeostasis, retrograde trafficking from the vacuole, and protein sorting at the multivesicular body. This review describes the metabolism of PtdIns(3,5)P(2) and discusses the potential functions for this lipid.

Abstract
The calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is a G protein-coupled receptor that regulates physiological processes including Ca(2+) metabolism, Na(+), Cl(-), K(+), and H(2)0 balance, and the growth of some epithelial cells through diverse signaling pathways. Although many effects of CaR are mediated by the heterotrimeric G proteins Galpha(q) and Galpha(i), not all signaling pathways regulated by CaR have been identified. We used human embryonic kidney (HEK)-293 cells that stably express human CaR to study the regulation of inositol lipid metabolism by CaR. The nonfunctional mutant CaR(R796W) was used as a negative control. We found that CaR regulates phosphatidylinositol (PI) 4-kinase, the first step in inositol lipid biosynthesis. In cells pretreated with to inhibit phospholipase C activation and to block the degradation of PI 4,5-bisphosphate to form [(3)H]inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)), CaR stimulated the accumulation of [(3)H]PI monophosphate (PIP). Additionally, wortmannin, an inhibitor of both PI 3-kinase and type III PI 4-kinase, blocked CaR-stimulated accumulation of [(3)H]PIP and inhibited [(3)H]IP(3) production. CaR-stimulated inositol lipid synthesis was attributable to PI 4-kinase and not PI 3-kinase because CaR did not activate Akt, a downstream target of PI 3-kinase. CaR associates with PI 4-kinase based on the findings that CaR and the 110-kDa PI 4-kinase beta can be co-immunoprecipitated with antibodies against either CaR or PI 4-kinase. The PI-4 kinase in co-immunoprecipitates with anti-CaR antibody was activated in Ca(2+)-stimulated HEK-293 cells, which stably express the wild type CaR. Pertussis toxin did not affect the formation of [(3)H]IP(3) or the rise in intracellular Ca(2+) (Handlogten, M. E., Huang, C. F., Shiraishi, N., Awata, H., and Miller, R. T. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 13941-13948). RGS4, an accelerator of GTPase activity of members of the Galpha(i) and Galpha(q) families, attenuated the CaR-stimulated PLC activation and IP(3) accumulation, which is mediated by Galpha(q), but did not inhibit CaR-stimulated [(3)H]PIP formation. In HEK-293 cells, which express wild type CaR, Rho was enriched in immune complexes co-immunoprecipitated with the anti-CaR antibody. C(3) toxin, an inhibitor of Rho, also inhibited the CaR-stimulated [(3)H]IP(3) production but did not lead to CaR-stimulated [(3)H]PIP formation, reflecting inhibition of PI 4-kinase. Taken together, our data demonstrate that CaR stimulates PI 4-kinase, the first step in inositol lipid biosynthesis conversion of PI to PI 4-P by Rho-dependent and Galpha(q)- and Galpha(i)-independent pathways.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activity has been implicated in fundamental cellular functions such as endosomal trafficking, growth-factor receptor signal transduction, and cell survival. This multiplicity of actions can be attributed to the existence of three classes of PI 3-kinases in mammalian cells, which can together lead to the production of four known distinct end products: PtdIns(3)P, PtdIns(3,4)P2, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(3,5)P2. The challenge of deciphering the connection between PI 3-kinase activity, the production of specific phosphoinositides and the control of specific cellular events is being met with the discovery of novel structural motifs that interact specifically with distinct PI 3-kinase products.

Abstract
"It has been commented by someone that 'polyoma' is an adjective composed of a prefix and suffix, with no root between--a meatless linguistic sandwich" (C. J. Dawe). The very name "polyomavirus" is a vague mantel: a name given before our understanding of these viral agents was clear but implying a clear tumor life-style, as noted by the late C. J. Dawe. However, polyomavirus are not by nature tumor-inducing agents. Since it is the purpose of this review to consider the natural function of middle T antigen (MT), encoded by one of the seemingly crucial transforming genes of polyomavirus, we will reconsider and redefine the virus and its MT gene in the context of its natural biology and function. This review was motivated by our recent in vivo analysis of MT function. Using intranasal inoculation of adult SCID mice, we have shown that polyomavirus can replicate with an MT lacking all functions associated with transformation to similar levels to wild-type virus. These observations, along with an almost indistinguishable replication of all MT mutants with respect to wild-type viruses in adult competent mice, illustrate that MT can have a play subtle role in acute replication and persistence. The most notable effect of MT mutants was in infections of newborns, indicating that polyomavirus may be highly adapted to replication in newborn lungs. It is from this context that our current understanding of this well-studied virus and gene is presented.

Abstract
This study presents evidence that phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase is involved in T cell Ca(2+) signaling via a phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-trisphosphate PI(3,4,5)P(3)-sensitive Ca(2+) entry pathway. First, exogenous PI(3,4,5)P(3) at concentrations close to its physiological levels induces Ca(2+) influx in T cells, whereas PI(3,4)P(2), PI(4, 5)P(2), and PI(3)P have no effect on [Ca(2+)](i). This Ca(2+) entry mechanism is cell type-specific as B cells and a number of cell lines examined do not respond to PI(3,4,5)P(3) stimulation. Second, inhibition of PI 3-kinase by wortmannin and by overexpression of the dominant negative inhibitor Deltap85 suppresses anti-CD3-induced Ca(2+) response, which could be reversed by subsequent exposure to PI(3,4,5)P(3). Third, PI(3,4,5)P(3) is capable of stimulating Ca(2+) efflux from Ca(2+)-loaded plasma membrane vesicles prepared from Jurkat T cells, suggesting that PI(3,4,5)P(3) interacts with a Ca(2+) entry system directly or via a membrane-bound protein. Fourth, although D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4, 5)P(4)) mimics PI(3,4,5)P(3) in many aspects of biochemical functions such as membrane binding and Ca(2+) transport, we raise evidence that Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4) does not play a role in anti-CD3- or PI(3,4,5)P(3)-mediated Ca(2+) entry. This PI(3,4,5)P(3)-stimulated Ca(2+) influx connotes physiological significance, considering the pivotal role of PI 3-kinase in the regulation of T cell function. Given that PI 3-kinase and phospholipase C-gamma form multifunctional complexes downstream of many receptor signaling pathways, we hypothesize that PI(3,4,5)P(3)-induced Ca(2+) entry acts concertedly with Ins(1,4,5)P(3)-induced Ca(2+) release in initiating T cell Ca(2+) signaling. By using a biotinylated analog of PI(3,4,5)P(3) as the affinity probe, we have detected several putative PI(3,4,5)P(3)-binding proteins in T cell plasma membranes.

Abstract
Cell movement and resistance to mechanical forces are largely governed by the cytoskeleton, a three-dimensional network of protein filaments that form viscoelastic networks within the cytoplasm. The cytoskeleton underlying the plasma membrane of most cells is rich in actin filaments whose assembly and disassembly are regulated by actin binding proteins that are stimulated or inhibited by signals received and transmitted at the membrane/cytoplasm interface. Inositol phospholipids, or phosphoinositides, are potent regulators of many actin binding proteins, and changes in the phosphorylation of specific phosphoinositide species or in their spatial localization are associated with cytoskeletal remodeling in vitro. This review will focus on recent studies directed at defining the structural features of phosphoinositide binding sites in actin binding proteins and on the influence of the physical state of phosphoinositides on their ability to interact with their target proteins.

Abstract
Activation of PLC-gamma isozymes in response to various agonists involves tyrosine phosphorylation of the effector enzymes. Recent evidence indicates that PLC-gamma isozymes are additionally activated by phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and arachidonic acid in the absence of PLC-gamma tyrosine phosphorylation. These lipid-derived messengers are the immediate products of phospholipase D, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and phospholipase A2, enzymes which are often stimulated along with PLC-gamma in response to an agonist. Furthermore, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate acts as a substrate for both PLC-gamma and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and as an activator for phospholipase D and phospholipase A2. These results reveal an elaborate mechanism of cross-talk and mutual regulation between four effector enzymes that participate in receptor signaling by acting on phospholipids.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) is a key signaling enzyme implicated in a variety of receptor-stimulated cell responses. Stimulation of receptors possessing (or coupling to) protein-tyrosine kinase activates heterodimeric PI 3-kinases, which consist of an 85-kDa regulatory subunit (p85) containing Src-homology 2 (SH2) domains and a 110-kDa catalytic subunit (p110 alpha or p110 beta). Thus, this form of PI 3-kinases could be activated in vitro by a phosphotyrosyl peptide containing a YMXM motif that binds to the SH2 domains of p85. Receptors coupling to alpha beta gamma-trimeric G proteins also stimulate the lipid kinase activity of a novel p110 gamma isoform, which is not associated with p85, and thereby is not activated by tyrosine kinase receptors. The activation of p110 gamma PI 3-kinase appears to be mediated through the beta gamma subunits of the G protein (G beta gamma). In addition, rat liver heterodimeric PI 3-kinases containing the p110 beta catalytic subunit are synergistically activated by the phosphotyrosyl peptide plus G beta gamma. Such enzymatic properties were also observed with a recombinant p110 beta/p85 alpha expressed in COS-7 cells. In contrast, another heterodimeric PI 3-kinase consisting of p110 alpha and p85 in the same rat liver, together with a recombinant p110 alpha/p85 alpha, was not activated by G beta gamma, though their activities were stimulated by the phosphotyrosyl peptide. Synergistic activation of PI 3-kinase by the stimulation of the two major receptor types was indeed observed in intact cells, such as chemotactic peptide (N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe) plus insulin (or Fc gamma II) receptors in differentiated THP-1 and CHO cells and adenosine (A1) plus insulin receptors in rat adipocytes. Thus, PI 3-kinase isoforms consisting of p110 beta catalytic and SH2-containing (p85 or its related) regulatory subunits appeared to function as a 'cross-talk' enzyme between the two signal transduction pathways mediated through tyrosine kinase and G protein-coupled receptors.

Abstract
In the course of delineating the regulatory mechanism underlying phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) metabolism, we have discovered three distinct phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase D (PI-PLD) isozymes from rat brain, tentatively designated as PI-PLDa, PI-PLDb, and PI-PLDc. These enzymes convert [3H]PI(3,4,5)P3 to generate a novel inositol phosphate, D-myo-[3H]inositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate ([3H]Ins(3,4,5)P3) and phosphatidic acid. These isozymes are predominantly associated with the cytosol, a notable difference from phosphatidylcholine PLDs. They are partially purified by a three-step procedure consisting of DEAE, heparin, and Sephacryl S-200 chromatography. PI-PLDa and PI-PLDb display a high degree of substrate specificity for PI(3,4, 5)P3, with a relative potency of PI(3,4,5)P3 >> phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI(3)P) or phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI(4)P) > phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) > phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PI(3,4)P2). In contrast, PI-PLDc preferentially utilizes PI(3)P as substrate, followed by, in sequence, PI(3,4,5)P3, PI(4)P, PI(3,4)P2, and PI(4,5)P2. Both PI(3, 4)P2 and PI(4,5)P2 are poor substrates for all three isozymes, indicating that the regulatory mechanisms underlying these phosphoinositides are different from that of PI(3,4,5)P3. None of these enzymes reacts with phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, or phosphatidylethanolamine. All three PI-PLDs are Ca2+-dependent. Among them, PI-PLDb and PI-PLDc show maximum activities within a sub-microM range (0.3 and 0.9 microM Ca2+, respectively), whereas PI-PLDa exhibits an optimal [Ca2+] at 20 microM. In contrast to PC-PLD, Mg2+ has no significant effect on the enzyme activity. All three enzymes require sodium deoxycholate for optimal activities; other detergents examined including Triton X-100 and Nonidet P-40 are, however, inhibitory. In addition, PI(4,5)P2 stimulates these isozymes in a dose-dependent manner. Enhancement in the enzyme activity is noted only when the molar ratio of PI(4,5)P2 to PI(3,4, 5)P3 is between 1:1 and 2:1.

Abstract
We have used HL-60 leukemia cells to investigate phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K) during granulocytic differentiation at the nuclear level. Nuclei of HL-60 cells showed a constitutive presence of PI 3-K that increased when cells were treated with differentiating doses of ATRA. PI 3-K was also detected tightly bound to nuclear matrices of HL-60 cells, isolated by nuclease treatment and high salt extraction. Four days of ATRA treatment induced a striking increase of nuclear matrix bound PI 3-K. In situ morphological analysis by confocal microscopy showed the translocation of PI 3-K to the nucleus and to the subnuclear fractions. PI 3-K enzymatic activity was stimulated during the granulocytic differentiation process and parallelled the increase in content of nuclei and subnuclear fractions. PI 3-K activity was recovered in nuclei also without the addition of exogenous substrates, consistent with the presence of both substrates and enzyme in the nucleus. These results indicate that specific intracellular localization of PI 3-K determines the production of different phosphoinositides in the sites of the enzyme translocation, and suggest that 3-phosphoinositide metabolism may play a specific role in the nucleus, candidating PI 3-K as a key enzyme in promoting granulocytic differentiation of HL-60 cells.

Abstract
We have examined the roles of the p85/ p110alpha and hVPS34 phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3'-kinases in cellular signaling using inhibitory isoform-specific antibodies. We raised anti-hVPS34 and anti-p110alpha antibodies that specifically inhibit recombinant hVPS34 and p110alpha, respectively, in vitro. We used the antibodies to study cellular processes that are sensitive to low-dose wortmannin. The antibodies had distinct effects on the actin cytoskeleton; microinjection of anti-p110alpha antibodies blocked insulin-stimulated ruffling, whereas anti-hVPS34 antibodies had no effect. The antibodies also had different effects on vesicular trafficking. Microinjection of inhibitory anti-hVPS34 antibodies, but not anti-p110alpha antibodies, blocked the transit of internalized PDGF receptors to a perinuclear compartment, and disrupted the localization of the early endosomal protein EEA1. Microinjection of anti-p110alpha antibodies, and to a lesser extent anti-hVPS34 antibodies, reduced the rate of transferrin recycling in CHO cells. Surprisingly, both antibodies inhibited insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis by 80%. Injection of cells with antisense oligonucleotides derived from the hVPS34 sequence also blocked insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis, whereas scrambled oligonucleotides had no effect. Interestingly, the requirement for p110alpha and hVPS34 occurred at different times during the G1-S transition. Our data suggest that different PI 3'-kinases play distinct regulatory roles in the cell, and document an unexpected role for hVPS34 during insulin-stimulated mitogenesis.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase has been implicated in T cell receptor (TCR) signaling, either as a positive or a negative regulatory molecule. Here, we show that for normal mouse lymph node T cells, PI 3-kinase activity is required for interleukin-2 (IL-2) production following TCR-mediated activation. Furthermore, in normal T cells, inhibition of PI 3-kinase prevented activation of enzymes in the extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) signaling pathway (MEK-1 and ERK-2). Overexpression of a dominant-negative mutant of PI 3-kinase and pharmacological inhibitors of PI 3-kinase prevented transcriptional activation of AP-1 and NF-AT, transcription factors regulated by ERK-2 and pivotal for IL-2 gene expression. Although a constitutively active form of Akt kinase, a downstream mediator of PI 3-kinase function, enhanced TCR-induced IL-2 gene transcription, it could not bypass the requirement for PI 3-kinase activity. Therefore, PI 3-kinase is likely to be involved in signaling for IL-2 production in at least two steps in the TCR-initiated signaling pathway.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol, a component of eukaryotic cell membranes, is unique among phospholipids in that its head group can be phosphorylated at multiple free hydroxyls. Several phosphorylated derivatives of phosphatidylinositol, collectively termed phosphoinositides, have been identified in eukaryotic cells from yeast to mammals. Phosphoinositides are involved in the regulation of diverse cellular processes, including proliferation, survival, cytoskeletal organization, vesicle trafficking, glucose transport, and platelet function. The enzymes that phosphorylate phosphatidylinositol and its derivatives are termed phosphoinositide kinases. Recent advances have challenged previous hypotheses about the substrate selectivity of different phosphoinositide kinase families. Here we re-examine the pathways of phosphoinositide synthesis and the enzymes involved.

Abstract
Polyoma middle T antigen (PMT) was originally identified as the tumorigenic component of the polyomavirus genome. To investigate whether the serine/ threonine kinase Akt/PKB, which is the proto-oncogene transduced by the transforming AKT8 retrovirus, is activated by PMT, 3T3-L1 fibroblasts were stably transfected with wild type PMT. PMT expression accelerated glucose transport and increased phosphorylation of p70 S6-kinase and MAPK. PMT expression also stimulated Akt kinase activity 7 fold as compared to untreated, mock infected cells. This stimulation rivaled that obtained following insulin treatment of both mock and PMT infected cells. Akt activation and phosphorylation were eliminated in a PMT mutant incapable of interacting with PI3-kinase, but not one which does not interact with Shc, and correlated closely to the amount of PI3-kinase activity in anti-phosphotyrosine immunoprecipitates. These results indicate that the PI3-kinase pathway is requisite, but the Shc pathway is dispensable, for Akt activation. The studies further suggest that Akt may participate in PMT and PI3-kinase's regulation of cellular transformation and tumorigenesis.

Abstract
We have previously shown that sustained phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3 kinase activity is necessary for neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells induced by nerve growth factor (NGF). Microinjection of a constitutively active mutant of PI-3 kinase induced process formation suggesting that PI-3 kinase is indeed involved in the neurite outgrowth. However, the processes appeared to be incomplete neurites as they had very poor organization of F-actin and GAP43 antigen. The microtubule network was enhanced in the process-bearing cells and process formation was inhibited by colchicine suggesting that microtubules play an important role in process formation downstream of PI-3 kinase. These cell responses were inhibited by dominant-negative mutants of Rac and Sek1/SAPK but not by a dominant-negative mutant Ras and PD98059, a MAP kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor, suggesting that not the Ras-MAP kinase pathway but the Rac-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway is involved in process formation.

Abstract
Signal transduction across cell membranes often involves the activation of both phosphatidylinositol (PI)-specific phospholipase C (PLC) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase). Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2), a substrate for both enzymes, is converted to phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) by the action of PI 3-kinase. Here, we show that PI(3,4,5)P3 activates purified PLC-gamma isozymes by interacting with their Src homology 2 domains. Furthermore, the expression of an activated catalytic subunit of PI 3-kinase in COS-7 cells resulted in an increase in inositol phosphate formation, whereas platelet-derived growth factor-induced PLC activation in NIH 3T3 cells was markedly inhibited by the specific PI 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002. These results suggest that receptors coupled to PI 3-kinase may activate PLC-gamma isozymes indirectly, in the absence of PLC-gamma tyrosine phosphorylation, through the generation of PI(3,4,5)P3.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipases C (PI-PLCs) are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyse the hydrolysis of phosphoinositides to inositol phosphates and diacylglycerol (DAG). Whereas the eukaryotic PI-PLCs play a central role in most signal transduction cascades by producing two second messengers, inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate and DAG, prokaryotic PI-PLCs are of interest because they act as virulence factors in some pathogenic bacteria. Bacterial PI-PLCs consist of a single domain of 30 to 35 kDa, while the much larger eukaryotic enzymes (85 to 150 kDa) are organized in several distinct domains. The catalytic domain of eukaryotic PI-PLCs is assembled from two highly conserved polypeptide stretches, called regions X and Y, that are separated by a divergent linker sequence. There is only marginal sequence similarity between the catalytic domain of eukaryotic and prokaryotic PI-PLCs. Recently the crystal structures of a bacterial and a eukaryotic PI-PLC have been determined, both in complexes with substrate analogues thus enabling a comparison of these enzymes in structural and mechanistic terms. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic PI-PLCs contain a distorted (beta alpha)8-barrel as a structural motif with a surprisingly large structural similarity for the first half of the (beta alpha)8-barrel and a much weaker similarity for the second half. The higher degree of structure conservation in the first half of the barrel correlates with the presence of all catalytic residues, in particular two catalytic histidine residues, in this portion of the enzyme. The second half contributes mainly to the features of the substrate binding pocket that result in the distinct substrate preferences exhibited by the prokaryotic and eukaryotic enzymes. A striking difference between the enzymes is the utilization of a catalytic calcium ion that electrostatically stabilizes the transition state in eukaryotic enzymes, whereas this role is filled by an analogously positioned arginine in bacterial PI-PLCs. The catalytic domains of all PI-PLCs may share not only a common fold but also a similar catalytic mechanism utilizing general base/acid catalysis. The conservation of the topology and parts of the active site suggests a divergent evolution from a common ancestral protein.

Abstract
Mammalian phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) plays an important role in the regulation of various cellular, receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated processes, such as mitogenesis and transformation. PI 3-kinase is composed of a 110-kDa catalytic subunit and a regulatory subunit of 85 kDa or 55 kDa. We have cloned a gene for a regulatory subunit from Drosophila melanogaster, named droPIK57, from head-specific cDNA libraries. The droPIK57 gene encodes a protein containing two SH2 domains with significant sequence homology to those in p85 and p55. Like the p55 subunits, DroPIK57 is missing the SH3 domain and the bcr homology region of the p85 subunit. The short N-terminus as well as the C-terminus of the DroPIK57 protein show no identity to the known PI 3-kinase subunits, suggesting that it is a new member in the family of regulatory subunits. In-situ hybridization and Northern blot analysis indicate a widespread function of this gene during embryogenesis and in the CNS.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) is a key signaling enzyme implicated in variety of receptor-stimulated cell responses. Receptors with intrinsic or associated tyrosine kinase activity recruit heterodimeric PI 3-kinases consisting of a 110-kDa catalytic subunit (p110) and an 85-kDa regulatory subunit (p85). We separated a PI 3-kinase that could be stimulated by the betagamma subunits of G protein (Gbetagamma) from rat liver. The Gbetagamma-sensitive PI 3-kinase appeared to be a heterodimer consisting of p110beta and p85 (or their related subunits). The stimulation by Gbetagamma was inhibited by the GDP-bound alpha subunit of the inhibitory GTP-binding protein. Moreover, the stimulatory action of Gbetagamma was markedly enhanced by the simultaneous addition of a phosphotyrosyl peptide synthesized according to the amino acid sequence of the insulin receptor substrate-1. Such enzymic properties could be observed with a recombinant p110beta/p85alpha expressed in COS-7 cells with their cDNAs. In contrast, another heterodimeric PI 3-kinase consisting of p110alpha and p85 in the same rat liver, together with a recombinant p110alpha/p85alpha, was not activated by Gbetagamma, although their activities were stimulated by the phosphotyrosyl peptide. These results indicate that p110beta/p85 PI 3-kinase may be regulated in a cooperative manner by two different types of membrane receptors, one possessing tyrosine kinase activity and the other activating GTP-binding proteins.

Abstract
The production of the intracellular second messengers inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (InsP3) and sn 1,2-diacylglycerol (DG) in response to a wide variety of extracellular primary messengers is achieved by an extended family of inositol phospholipid phosphodiesterases termed phospholipases C (PLC, E.C. 3.1.4.11). This family has been the subject of extensive research and it is clear that the different isoenzymes exhibit some common characteristics (e.g., interactions with substrates) and other distinctive features (e.g., modes of regulation). The recent description of the X-ray crystal structure of a mammalian PLC has served to clarify much about the behaviour of the PLCs, emphasising the "modular" structure of these enzymes. The main focus of this review will concern the specific adaptations of PLC molecules which make them efficient lipid-metabolising enzymes. We also describe what is known about how these enzymes interact with their lipid substrates, which will serve as a basis for considering how PLCs may be activated.

Abstract
The stimulation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase by insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) in L6 cultured skeletal muscle cells is inhibited by the glucocorticoid dexamethasone. The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanism of dexamethasone action by determining its effects on the expression of the p85alpha and p85beta regulatory subunit isoforms of PI 3-kinase, their coupling with the p110 catalytic subunit, and their association with insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) in response to IGF-I stimulation. Dexamethasone induced a 300% increase in p85alpha protein content in the L6 cultured myoblast cell line, whereas it increased p110 content by only 38% and had no effect on p85beta. The increase in p85alpha protein was associated with a coordinate increase in p85alpha mRNA. Stimulation with IGF-I induced the association of p85alpha and p85beta with IRS-1, and this was accompanied by increased amounts of the p110 catalytic subunit and markedly increased PI 3-kinase activity in IRS-1 immunoprecipitates. In cells treated with dexamethasone, greater amounts of p85alpha and lower amounts of p85beta, respectively, were found in IRS-1 immunoprecipitates, such that the alpha/beta ratio was markedly higher than in control cells. In spite of the increase in both total and IRS-1-associated p85alpha following dexamethasone treatment, IRS-1-associated p110 catalytic subunit and PI 3-kinase activity were decreased by approximately 50%. Thus, dexamethasone induces a specific increase in expression of the p85alpha regulatory subunit that is not associated with a coordinate increase in the p110 catalytic subunit of PI 3-kinase. As a consequence, in dexamethasone-treated cells, p85alpha that is not coupled with p110 competes with both p85alpha.p110 and p85beta.p110 complexes for association with IRS-1, leading to increased p85alpha but decreased p85beta, p110, and PI 3-kinase activity in IRS-1 immunoprecipitates.

Abstract
The pivotal role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in signal transduction has been well established in recent years. Receptor-regulated forms of PI 3-kinase are thought to phosphorylate phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) at the 3-position of the inositol ring to give the putative lipid second messenger, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4, 5)P3). Cellular levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 are currently measured by time-consuming procedures involving radiolabeling with high levels of 32PO4, extraction, and multiple chromatography steps. To avoid these lengthy and hazardous procedures, many laboratories prefer to assay PI 3-kinase activity in cell extracts and/or appropriate immunoprecipitates. Such approaches are not readily applied to measurements of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 in extracts of animal tissues. Moreover, they can be misleading since the association of PI 3-kinases in molecular complexes is not necessarily correlated with the enzyme's activity state. Direct measurements of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 would also be desirable since its concentration may be subject to additional control mechanisms such as activation or inhibition of the phosphatases responsible for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 metabolism. We now report a simple, reproducible isotope dilution assay which detects PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at subpicomole sensitivity, suitable for measurements of both basal and stimulated levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 obtained from samples containing approximately 1 mg of cellular protein. Total lipid extracts, containing PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, are first subjected to alkaline hydrolysis which results in the release of the polar head group Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. The latter is measured by its ability to displace [32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 from a highly specific binding protein present in cerebellar membrane preparations. We show that this assay solely detects PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and does not suffer from interference by other compounds generated after alkaline hydrolysis of total cellular lipids. Measurements on a wide range of cells, including rat-1 fibroblasts, 1321N1 astrocytoma cells, HEK 293 cells, and rat adipocytes, show wortmannin-sensitive increased levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 upon stimulation with appropriate agonists. The enhanced utility of this procedure is further demonstrated by measurements of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels in tissue derived from whole animals. Specifically, we show that stimulation with insulin increases PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels in rat skeletal muscle in vivo with a time course which parallels the activation of protein kinase B in the same samples.

Abstract
The crystal structures of various ternary complexes of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C-delta 1 from rat with calcium and inositol phosphates have been determined at 2.30-2.95 A resolution. The inositol phosphates used in this study mimic the binding of substrates and the reaction intermediate and include D-myo-inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, D-myo-inositol-2,4, 5-trisphosphate. D-myo-inositol-4,5-bisphosphate, and D,1-myo-inositol-2-methylene-1,2-cyclićmonophosphonate. The complexes exhibit an almost invariant mode of binding in the active site, each fitting edge-on into the active site and interacting with both the enzyme and the catalytic calcium at the bottom of the active site. Most of the active site residues do not undergo conformational changes upon binding either calcium or inositol phosphates. The structures are consistent with bidentate liganding of the catalytic calcium to the inositol phosphate intermediate and transition state. The complexes suggest explanations for substrate preference, pH optima, and ratio of cyclic to acyclic reaction products. A reaction mechanism is derived that supports general acid/base catalysis in a sequential mechanism involving a cyclic phosphate intermediate and rules out a parallel mechanism where acyclic and cyclic products are simultaneously generated.

Abstract
The present study takes a novel approach to explore the mode of action of phosphoinositide 3-kinase lipid products by identifying a synthetic peptide W-NG(28-43) (WAAKIQASFRGHMARKK) that displays discriminative affinity with phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3). This PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-binding peptide was discovered by a gel filtration-based binding assay and exhibits a high degree of stereochemical selectivity in phosphoinositide recognition. It forms a 1:1 complex with PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 with Kd of 2 microM, but binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) and phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P2) with substantially lower affinity (5- and 40-fold, respectively) despite the largely shared structural motifs with PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. Other phospholipids examined, including phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylethanolamine, show low or negligible affinity with the peptide. Several lines of evidence indicate that this phosphoinositide-peptide interaction is not due to nonspecific electrostatic interactions or phospholipid aggregation, and requires a cooperative action among the hydrophobic and basic residues to exert the selective recognition. CD data suggest that the peptide acquires an ordered structure upon binding to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. Further, we demonstrate that PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 enhances the phosphorylation rate of this binding peptide by protein kinase C (PKC)-alpha in a dose-dependent manner. In view of the findings that this stimulatory effect is not noted with other PKC peptide substrates lacking affinity with PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and that PKC-alpha is not susceptible to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 activation, the activity enhancement is thought to result from the substrate-concentrating effect of the D-3 phosphoinositide, i.e. the presence of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 allows the peptide to bind to the same vesicles/micelles to which PKC is bound. Moreover, it is noteworthy that neurogranin, the full-length protein of W-NG(28-43) and a relevant PKC substrate in the forebrain, binds PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 with high affinity. Taken together, it is plausible that, in addition to PKC activation, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 provides an alternative mechanism to regulate PKC activity in vivo by recruiting and concentrating its target proteins at the interface to facilitate the subsequent PKC phosphorylation.

Abstract
Activation of phosphoinositide 3'-hydroxykinase (P13K) is required for mitogenic signal transduction by several growth factors and oncogenes. P13K is a heterodimer consisting of a p85 regulatory subunit and a p110 catalytic subunit. In the current study, we report the cloning and characterization of the p110 alpha catalytic subunit of human P13K. This clone is highly homologous (> 99% amino acid identity) to bovine brain p110 alpha, but contains 10 amino acid differences from the human p110 alpha sequence previously reported. Comparison of this sequence with known Ser/Thr kinases and p110 homologs highlighted several conserved residues within the putative kinase domain. Mutational analysis of these residues (Asp915, (Asp933 + Phe934)) yielded P13K mutants with virtually complete loss of phosphoinositide phosphorylating activity. Expression of the wild-type p110 alpha protein in CHO cells is sufficient to activate the serum response element derived from the promoter of c-fos, an immediate early gene product. In contrast, the catalytically impaired p110 alpha mutants as well as the p85 alpha subunit of P13K were inactive in the fos assay. These studies suggest that the mitogenic signal transduction pathway mediated by P13K is dependent upon the enzymatic activity of the p110 alpha subunit of P13K.

Abstract
This review focuses on two phospholipase activities involved in eukaryotic signal transduction. The action of the phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C enzymes produces two well-characterized second messengers, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. This discussion emphasizes recent advances in elucidation of the mechanisms of regulation and catalysis of the various isoforms of these enzymes. These are especially related to structural information now available for a phospholipase C delta isozyme. Phospholipase D hydrolyzes phospholipids to produce phosphatidic acid and the respective head group. A perspective of selected past studies is related to emerging molecular characterization of purified and cloned phospholipases D. Evidence for various stimulatory agents (two small G protein families, protein kinase C, and phosphoinositides) suggests complex regulatory mechanisms, and some studies suggest a role for this enzyme activity in intracellular membrane traffic.

Abstract
New C-11 esters of the fermentation product wortmannin have been synthesized, with some of them further derivatized at C-17. The new esters show greater inhibition of isolated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and increased cell cytotoxicity in a rapidly proliferating leukemia cell line, when compared to wortmannin. Reduction of the C-17 ketone caused a slight increase in activity, while acylation of this new alcohol caused severe loss of activity. With their increased activity, the new C-11 esters may be good candidates to explore the in vivo antitumor effects of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
To gain insight into the physiological function of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) lipid products, this study examines the interactions of the D-3 phosphoinositides with profilin and the consequent effects on actin dynamics and phosphoinositide turnover. Profilin, a ubiquitous actin-regulating protein, plays a putative role in regulating actin assembly and PLC-gamma 1 signaling in light of its unique interactions with actin and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2]. Here we raise evidence that the affinity of profilin with the D-3 phosphoinositides is substantially higher than that of PtdIns(4,5)P2. The dissociation constants (Kd) are estimated to be 1.1 microM, 5.7 microM, and 11 microM for phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4)P2], phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3], and PtdIns(4,5)P2, respectively. Spectroscopic data show that while all these phosphoinositides alter the tryptophan fluorescence of profilin in a similar fashion, the respective conformational effect on profilin is vastly different. Based on CD data, the alpha-helical contents of profilin in the presence of 8 molar equiv of PtdIns(4,5)P2, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, and PtdIns(3,4)P2 are 17.4%, 11.5%, and 1.4%, respectively, vis-a-vis 9.4% for profilin alone. In contrast, no appreciable change in the fluorescence and CD spectra is observed when related inositol phosphates such as Ins(1,4,5)P3, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, or Ins(1,3,4)P3 at comparable concentrations are tested. Evidence suggests that this differential recognition bears functional significance concerning the intricate roles of profilin and inositol lipids in modulating actin polymerization and PtdIns(4,5)P2 turnover. The relative potency of individual phosphoinositides in offsetting the inhibitory effect of profilin on actin assembly is PtdIns(3,4)P2 > PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 > PtdIns(4,5)P2, consistent with their relative binding affinity with profilin. Moreover, the inhibitory effect of profilin on PLC-gamma 1-mediated PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis is overcome by PtdIns(3,4)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 through a combined effect of PLC-gamma 1 activation and preferential profilin binding. This D-3 phosphoinositide-mediated regulation may represent a new mechanism for controlling PtdIns(4,5)P2 turnover by PLC-gamma 1.

Abstract
The intracellular localization of phosphatidyl-inositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) has been analyzed by western blotting, confocal, and electron microscopy immunocytochemistry in human osteosarcoma Saos-2 cells. By western blotting, the enzyme appears to be present in both the cytoplasmic and nuclear subfractions. By confocal microscope immunocytochemistry, the cytoplasmic fluorescence is localized in the perinuclear region and on a network of filaments, while a diffused signal is present in the nucleus, except for the nucleolar areas. Ultrastructural analyses on whole cells and on in situ matrix preparations reveal that nuclear PI 3-kinase is localized in interchromatin domains, in stable association with inner nuclear matrix components, while the enzyme diffused in the cytosol is partly associated with the cytoskeletal filaments. Quantitative evaluations indicate that, in a multidrug-resistant variant obtained by continuous exposure of Saos-2 cells to doxorubicin, the amount of nuclear and cytoplasmic PI 3-kinase is significantly lower than in the sensitive parental cell line. The nuclear localization of PI 3-kinase and its variation in multidrug-resistant cells, characterized by a reduced mitotic index, are consistent with the data on the existence of a nuclear inositol lipid cycle, which could also utilize 3-phosphorylated inositides to modulate signal transduction for the control of some key functional activities.

Abstract
Using an affinity resin and photoaffinity label based on phospholipid analogs of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4), we have isolated, characterized, and cloned a 46-kDa protein from rat brain, which we have named centaurin-alpha. Binding specificity was determined using displacement of 1-O-[3H](3-[4-benzoyldihydrocinnamidyl]propyl)-InsP4 photoaffinity labeling. Centaurin-alpha displayed highest affinity for phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdInsP3) (IC50 = 120 nM), whereas InsP4, PtdInsP2, and InsP3 bound with 5-, 12-, and >50-fold lower affinity, respectively. Screening a rat brain cDNA library with a polymerase chain reaction product, generated using partial amino acid sequence from tryptic peptides, yielded a full-length clone. The 2,450-base pair cDNA contained an open reading frame (ORF) encoding a novel protein of 419 amino acids. Northern analysis revealed a 2.5-kilobase transcript that is highly expressed in brain. The deduced sequence contains a novel putative zinc finger motif, 10 ankyrin-like repeats, and shows homology to recently identified yeast and mammalian Arf GTPase-activating proteins. Given the specificity of binding and enrichment in brain, centaurin-alpha is a candidate PtdInsP3 receptor that may link the activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase to downstream responses in the brain.

Abstract
Using phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] prepared from phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and inositolphospholipid 3-kinase, we identified in bovine thymus extracts the enzyme activity which catalyzed dephosphorylation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, to produce phosphatidylinositol biphosphate. Since bovine thymus exhibited the highest level of activity among tissues screened, we tried to purify this enzyme PtdINs(3,4,5)P3 phosphatase from bovine thymus. After sequential chromatographies using S-Sepharose, heparin-Sepharose, blue Sepharose, and Toyopearl HW55, the enzyme was purified 1875-fold with a yield of 10%. SDS/PAGE analysis revealed that a 120-kDA protein band copurified with the enzyme activity. The apparent molecular mass of the active protein was 120 kDa on size-exclusion chromatography, suggesting that the 120-kDa band on SDS/PAGE is the PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 phosphatase. Since PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 phosphatase seemed to be the only activity that metabolized PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, and the enzyme did not hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate, the enzyme may play a critical role in the inositolphospholipid 3-kinase signalling.
