The toxicity of the Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans cytolethal distending toxin correlates with its phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate phosphatase activity. Cell Microbiol 2015; 18:223-43. [PMID: 26247396 DOI: 10.1111/cmi.12497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2015] [Revised: 07/22/2015] [Accepted: 07/26/2015] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
The Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) induces G2 arrest and apoptosis in lymphocytes and other cell types. We have shown that the active subunit, CdtB, exhibits phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) phosphatase activity, leading us to propose that Cdt toxicity is the result of PIP3 depletion and perturbation of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI-3K)/PIP3/Akt signalling. To further explore this relationship, we have focused our analysis on identifying residues that comprise the catalytic pocket and are critical to substrate binding rather than catalysis. In this context, we have generated several CdtB mutants and demonstrate that, in each instance, the ability of the toxin to induce cell cycle arrest correlates with retention of phosphatase activity. We have also assessed the effect of Cdt on downstream components of the PI-3K signalling pathway. In addition to depletion of intracellular concentrations of PIP3, toxin-treated lymphocytes exhibit decreases in pAkt and pGSK3β. Further analysis indicates that toxin-treated cells exhibit a concomitant loss in Akt activity and increase in GSK3β kinase activity consistent with observed changes in their phosphorylation status. We demonstrate that cell susceptibility to Cdt is dependent upon dephosphorylation and concomitant activation of GSK3β. Finally, we demonstrate that, in addition to lymphocytes, HeLa cells exposed to a CdtB mutant that retains phosphatase activity and not DNase activity undergo G2 arrest in the absence of H2AX phosphorylation. Our results provide further insight into the mode of action by which Cdt may function as an immunotoxin and induce cell cycle arrest in target cells such as lymphocytes.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide phosphatases dephosphorylate the three positions (D-3, 4 and 5) of the inositol ring of the poly-phosphoinositides. They belong to different families of enzymes. The PtdIns(3,4)P(2) 4-phosphatase family, the tumour suppressor phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), SAC1 domain phosphatases and myotubularins belong to the tyrosine protein phosphatases superfamily. They share the presence of a conserved cysteine residue in the consensus CX(5)RT/S. Another family consists of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase isoenzymes. The importance of these phosphoinositide phosphatases in cell regulation is illustrated by multiple examples of their implications in human diseases such as Lowe syndrome, X-linked myotubular myopathy, cancer, diabetes or bacterial infection.

Abstract
The Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) is a potent immunotoxin that induces G(2) arrest in human lymphocytes. We now show that the CdtB subunit exhibits phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3,4,5-triphosphate phosphatase activity. Breakdown product analysis indicates that CdtB hydrolyzes PI-3,4,5-P(3) to PI-3,4-P(2) and therefore functions in a manner similar to phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphatases. Conserved amino acids critical to catalysis in this family of enzymes were mutated in the cdtB gene. The mutant proteins exhibit reduced phosphatase activity along with decreased ability to induce G(2) arrest. Consistent with this activity, Cdt induces time-dependent reduction of PI-3,4,5-P(3) in Jurkat cells. Lymphoid cells with defects in SHIP1 and/or ptase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) (such as Jurkat, CEM, Molt) and, concomitantly, elevated PI-3,4,5-P(3) levels were more sensitive to the toxin than HUT78 cells which contain functional levels of both enzymes and low levels of PI-3,4,5-P(3). Finally, reduction of Jurkat cell PI-3,4,5-P(3) synthesis using the PI3K inhibitors, wortmannin and LY290004, protects cells from toxin-induced cell cycle arrest. Collectively, these studies show that the CdtB not only exhibits PI-3,4,5-P(3) phosphatase activity, but also that toxicity in lymphocytes is related to this activity.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) has emerged as a versatile regulator of TRP ion channels. In many cases, the regulation involves interactions of channel proteins with the lipid itself independent of its hydrolysis products. The functions of the regulation mediated by such interactions are diverse. Some TRP channels absolutely require PIP2 for functioning, while others are inhibited. A change of gating is common to all, endowing the lipid a role for modulation of the sensitivity of the channels to their physiological stimuli. The activation of TRP channels may also influence cellular PIP2 levels via the influx of Ca2+ through these channels. Depletion of PIP2 in the plasma membrane occurs upon activation of TRPV1, TRPM8, and possibly TRPM4/5 in heterologous expression systems, whereas resynthesis of PIP2 requires Ca2+ entry through the TRP/TRPL channels in Drosophila photoreceptors. These developments concerning PIP2 regulation of TRP channels reinforce the significance of the PLC signaling cascade in TRP channel function, and provide further perspectives for understanding the physiological roles of these ubiquitous and often enigmatic channels.

Abstract
Cbl proteins are regulators of signal transduction through many pathways and, consequently, regulate cell function and development. They are ubiquitin ligases that ubiquitinate and target many signaling molecules for degradation. The Cbl proteins themselves are regulated by an increasingly complex network of interactions that fine-tune the effects that Cbl proteins have on signaling. The negative regulation of Cbl protein function can occur via cis-acting structural elements that prevent inappropriate ubiquitin ligase activity, degradation of the Cbl proteins, inhibition without degradation owing to interaction with other signaling proteins, deubiquitination of Cbl substrates, and regulation of assembly of the endosomal ESCRT-I complex. Defects in the regulatory mechanisms that control Cbl function are implicated in the development of immunological and malignant diseases.

Abstract
There are now known to exist seven phosphoinositides all derived through various metabolic routes from the parent lipid phosphatidylinositol. With one additional metabolite, diacylglycerol, these represent a rich resource of bioactive lipids responsible for recruiting protein effectors and marking membrane compartments. The metabolic map of this pathway and the nature of the binding partner interactions are reviewed.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide lipid second messengers are integral components of signaling pathways mediated by insulin, growth factors, and integrins. SHIP2 dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate generated by the activated phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. SHIP2 down-regulates insulin signaling and is present at higher levels in diabetes and obesity. SHIP2 associates with p130Cas and filamin, regulators of cell adhesion/migration and cytoskeleton, influencing cell adhesion/spreading. Type I collagen specifically induces Src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP2. To better understand SHIP2 function, we employed RNA interference (RNAi) approach to silence the expression of the endogenous SHIP2 in HeLa cells. Suppression of SHIP2 levels caused severe F-actin deformities characterized by weak cortical actin and peripheral actin spikes. SHIP2 RNAi cells displayed cell-spreading defects involving a notable absence of focal contact structures and the formation of multiple slender membrane protrusions capped by actin spikes. Furthermore, decreased SHIP2 levels altered distribution of early endocytic antigen 1 (EEA1)-positive endocytic vesicles and of vesicles containing internalized epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transferrin. EGF treatment of SHIP2 RNAi cells led to the following: enhanced EGF receptor (EGFR) degradation; increased EGFR ubiquitination; and increased association of EGFR with c-Cbl ubiquitin ligase. Taken together, these experiments demonstrate that SHIP2 functions in the maintenance and dynamic remodeling of actin structures as well as in endocytosis, having a major impact on ligand-induced EGFR internalization and degradation. Accordingly, we suggest that, in HeLa cells, SHIP2 plays a distinct role in signaling pathways mediated by integrins and growth factor receptors.

Abstract
The catalytic properties of the type II phosphoinositide 5-phosphatases of Lowe's oculocerebrorenal syndrome, INPP5B, Synaptojanin1, Synaptojanin2 and SKIP were analysed with respect to their substrate specificity and enzymological properties. Our data reveal that all phosphatases have unique substrate specificities as judged by their corresponding KM and VMax values. They also possessed an exclusive sensitivity towards fatty acid composition, head group phosphorylation and micellar presentation. Thus, the biological function of these enzymes will not just be determined by their corresponding regulatory domains, but will be distinctly influenced by their catalytic properties as well. This suggests that the phosphatase domains fulfil a unique catalytic function that cannot be fully compensated by other phosphatases.

Abstract
Inositol phosphate-containing molecules play an important role in a broad range of cellular processes. Inositol 5-phosphatases participate in the regulation of these signaling molecules. We have identified four inositol 5-phosphatases in Dictyostelium discoideum, Dd5P1-4, showing a high diversity in domain composition. Dd5P1 possesses only a inositol 5-phosphatase catalytic domain. An unique domain composition is present in Dd5P2 containing a RCC1-like domain. RCC1 has a seven-bladed propeller structure and interacts with G-proteins. Dd5P3 and Dd5P4 have a domain composition similar to human Synaptojanin with a SacI domain and OCRL with a RhoGAP domain, respectively. We have expressed the catalytic domains and show that these inositol 5-phosphatases have different substrate preferences. Single and double gene inactivation suggest a functional redundancy for Dd5P1, Dd5P2, and Dd5P3. Inactivation of the gene coding for Dd5P4 leads to defects in growth and development. These defects are restored by the expression of the complete protein but not by the 5-phosphatase catalytic domain.

Abstract
Compounds from sulfonamide-focused libraries have been evaluated in cell-based antitumor screens using the COMPARE analysis with a panel of 39 human cancer cell lines and flow cytometric cell cycle analysis. Thus far, 2 (N-[2-[(4-hydroxyphenyl)amino]-3-pyridinyl]-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide (E7010)) and 3 (N-(3-chloro-7-indolyl)-1,4-benzenedisulfonamide (E7070)) have been selected from the collections as potent cell cycle inhibitors, which have progressed to clinical trials. Compound 2 is an orally active antimitotic agent disrupting tubulin polymerization, whereas compound 3 belongs to a novel class of antiproliferative agents causing a decrease in the S phase fraction along with G1 and/or G2 accumulation in various cancer cell lines. Because both compounds exhibited preliminary clinical activities in the phase I setting, we decided to examine further this series of oncolytic small molecules, particularly by using high-density oligonucleotide microarray analysis. The array data have enabled us to characterize these two classes of antitumor sulfonamides on the basis of gene expression changes, illuminating the essential pharmacophore structure and drug-sensitive cellular pathways for each class. Moreover, the dual character of 5 (N-(3-chloro-7-indolyl)-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide (ER-67880)), resembling both 2 and 3, was revealed by array-based transcription profiling, though the 3-type profile of this molecule had not been apparent in the cell-based phenotypic screens. These results provide an example of the utility of structure and gene expression relationship studies in medicinal genomics.

Abstract
Previously we have demonstrated that the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K) signal-transduction pathway mediates platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-induced glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis in fetal lung fibroblasts. In the present study we further investigated the signal-transduction pathway(s) that results in PDGF-BB-induced GAG synthesis. Over-expression of a soluble PDGF beta-receptor as well as a mutated form of the beta-receptor, unable to bind PI-3K, diminished GAG synthesis in fetal lung fibroblasts subsequent to PDGF-BB stimulation. The PI-3K inhibitor wortmannin blocked PDGF-BB-induced Akt activity as well as significantly diminishing PDGF-BB-mediated GAG synthesis. Expression of dominant-negative PI-3K also abrogated Akt activity and GAG synthesis. Furthermore, expression of dominant-negative Akt abrogated endogenous Akt activity, Rab3D phosphorylation and GAG synthesis, whereas expression of constitutively activated Akt stimulated Rab3D phosphorylation and GAG synthesis in the absence of PDGF-BB. Over-expression of wild-type PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted in chromosome 10) inhibited Akt activity and concomitantly attenuated GAG synthesis in fibroblasts stimulated with PDGF-BB. These data suggest that Akt is an integral protein involved in PDGF-BB-mediated GAG regulation in fetal lung fibroblasts.

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
Phosphoinositide plays a critical role not only in generating second messengers, such as inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol, but also in modulating a variety of cellular functions including cytoskeletal organization and membrane trafficking. Many inositol lipid kinases and phosphatases appear to regulate the concentration of a variety of phosphoinositides in a specific area, thereby inducing spatial and temporal changes in their availability. For example, local concentration changes in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P(2)) in response to extracellular stimuli cause the reorganization of actin filaments and a change in cell shape. PI(4,5)P(2) uncaps the barbed end of actin filaments and increases actin nucleation by modulating a variety of actin regulatory proteins, leading to de novo actin polymerization. PI(4,5)P(2) also plays a key role in membrane trafficking processes. In endocytosis, PI(4,5)P(2) targets clathrin-associated proteins to endocytic vesicles, leading to clathrin-coated pit formation. On the contrary, PI(4,5)P(2) must be dephosphorylated when they shed clathrin coats to fuse endosome. Thus, through regulating actin cytoskeleton organization and membrane trafficking, phosphoinositides play crucial roles in a variety of cell functions such as growth, polarity, movement, and pattern formation.

Abstract
It has been extensively described that neuronal differentiation involves the signalling through neurotrophin receptors to a Ras-dependent mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade. However, signalling pathways from other neuritogenic factors have not been well established. It has been reported that cAMP may activate protein kinase (PKA), and it has been shown that PKA-mediated stimulation of MAPK pathway regulates not only neuritogenesis but also survival. However, extracellular regulated kinases (ERKs) mediated pathways are not sufficient to explain all the processes which occur in neuronal differentiation. Our present data show that: in cAMP-mediated neuritogenesis, using the SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line, there exists a link between the activation of PKA and stimulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). Both kinase activities are essential to the initial elongation steps. Surprisingly, this neuritogenic process appears to be independent of ERKs. While the activity of PI3K is essential for elongation and maintenance of neurites, its inhibition causes retraction. In this neurite retraction process, GSK3 is activated. Using both a pharmacological approach and gene transfer of a dominant negative form of GSK3, we conclude that this induced retraction is a GSK3-dependent process which in turn appears to be a common target for transduction pathways involved in lysophosphatidic acid-mediated and PI3K-mediated neurite retraction.

Abstract
Over the past ten years, our knowledge of the integral role that the phospho-inositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) and their 3'-phosphorylated lipid products (3'-phosphorylated phosphoinositides; 3P-PIs) play in the mediation of signal transduction, cytoskeletal rearrangements and membrane trafficking has expanded considerably. They are now known to be involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, mobility, proliferation and survival and hence they have become a potential target for the control of the growth and spread of cancer cells. More recently, the correlation of the multiplicity of isomers (both catalytic and regulatory) within the different classes of the PI3Ks with their functional relevance has become possible. This, combined with our further understanding of the protein recognition patterns for their different 3P-PIs and the newly-described pathways in the control of the levels of these by dephosphorylation, has provided new aspects and areas for interference in these multiple PI3K signalling pathways. However, in the search for effective, non-toxic, drugs for use in the treatment of cancers, these individual targets for PI3K inhibition need to be further correlated with the specific in vivo effects on cell survival, invasivity and metastatic potential. Here, the range of PI3K inhibition targets are discussed in the light of recent experimental findings, with a view to the exploitation of their specificities in new approaches to effective cancer treatments based on PI3K activity inhibition.

Abstract
Inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases are central to intracellular processes ranging from membrane trafficking to Ca(2+) signaling, and defects in this activity result in the human disease Lowe syndrome. The 1.8 resolution structure of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase domain of SPsynaptojanin bound to Ca(2+) and inositol (1,4)-bisphosphate reveals a fold and an active site His and Asp pair resembling those of several Mg(2+)-dependent nucleases. Additional loops mediate specific inositol polyphosphate contacts. The 4-phosphate of inositol (1,4)-bisphosphate is misoriented by 4.6 compared to the reactive geometry observed in the apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1, explaining the dephosphorylation site selectivity of the 5-phosphatases. Based on the structure, a series of mutants are described that exhibit altered substrate specificity providing general determinants for substrate recognition.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI 3-kinases) regulate cellular functions through the 3'-phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) and its derivatives. The PI 3-kinase product phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P] functions to recruit and activate effector proteins containing FYVE zinc finger domains. These proteins have various functions in endocytic membrane trafficking, cytoskeletal regulation and signal transduction. In order to understand the function of FYVE proteins, it is essential to study the formation, localisation, trafficking and turnover of PI(3)P. Here we review recent evidence that PI(3)P is formed on early endosomes through the activity of a PI 3-kinase which is recruited by the GTPase Rab5, and that the PI(3)P is subsequently internalised into intralumenal vesicles of multivesicular endosomes for turnover.

Abstract
Genetic and biochemical studies in yeast and animal cells have led to the identification of many components required for endocytosis. In this review, we summarize our understanding of the endocytic machinery with an emphasis on the proteins regulating the internalization step of endocytosis and endosome fusion. Even though the overall endocytic machinery appears to be conserved between yeast and animals, clear differences exist. We also discuss the roles of phosphoinositides, sterols, and sphingolipid precursors in endocytosis, because in addition to proteins, these lipids have emerged as important determinants in the spatial and most likely temporal specificity of endocytic membrane trafficking events.

Abstract
In a previous study, we found that the SHIP2 protein became tyrosine phosphorylated and associated with the Shc adapter protein in response to the treatment of cells with growth factors and insulin (T. Habib, J. A. Hejna, R. E. Moses, and S. J. Decker, J. Biol. Chem. 273:18605-18609, 1998). We describe here a novel interaction between SHIP2 and the p130(Cas) adapter protein, a mediator of actin cytoskeleton organization. SHIP2 and p130(Cas) association was detected in anti-SHIP2 immunoprecipitates from several cell types. Reattachment of trypsinized cells stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP2 and increased the formation of a complex containing SHIP2 and a faster-migrating tyrosine-phosphorylated form of p130(Cas). The faster-migrating form of p130(Cas) was no longer recognized by antibodies to the amino terminus of p130(Cas) and appeared to be generated through proteolysis. Interaction of the SHIP2 protein with the various forms of p130(Cas) was mediated primarily through the SH2 domain of SHIP2. Immunofluorescence studies indicated that SHIP2 localized to focal contacts and to lamellipodia. Increased adhesion was observed in HeLa cells transiently expressing exogenous WT-SHIP2. These effects were not seen with SHIP2 possessing a mutation in the SH2 domain (R47G). Transfection of a catalytic domain deletion mutant of SHIP2 (DeltaRV) inhibited cell spreading. Taken together, our studies suggest an important role for SHIP2 in adhesion and spreading.

Abstract
Airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) is a phenotype of asthma and can be modeled by the inbred Fisher strain of rat, which is hyperresponsive in vivo relative to the Lewis strain. Enhanced airway smooth muscle (ASM) contractility and Ca(2+) mobilization are associated with the AHR observed in Fisher rats. In this study, we investigated whether the interstrain differences in Ca(2+) mobilization to serotonin (5HT) result from differences in inositol (1,4,5)trisphosphate (IP(3)) metabolism and/or IP(3) receptor (IP(3)R) sensitivity. Ca(2+) mobilization by 5HT in cultured ASM cells from both rat strains was phospholipase C (PLC) dependent. Inositol polyphosphate accumulation, and hence PLC activity, was similar in both rat strains, but a specific IP(3) transient was detectable only in Fisher myocytes in response to 5HT. These findings suggested that IP(3) degradation rather than production differed between the two strains. The Vmax and Michaelis constant (K(m)) of IP(3)-specific 5-phosphatase activity were higher in the particulate fraction of Lewis than in Fisher ASM cell homogenates and appeared to be related to a greater expression of two isoforms of 5-phosphatase (type I and type II) in Lewis cells as shown by Western blot analysis. The sensitivity of the IP(3)R to IP(3) was similar between Fisher and Lewis ASM cells, indicating that the interstrain intracellular Ca(2+) differences were unrelated to IP(3)R function. We propose that interstrain variations in 5-phosphatase activity and expression may give rise to the interstrain differences in IP(3)-mediated Ca(2+) release in ASM and may be a determinant of AHR.

Abstract
The protein kinase Akt/PKB is activated via a multistep process by a variety of signals. In the early steps of this process, PI-3 kinase-generated D3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides bind the Akt PH domain and induce the translocation of the kinase to the plasma membrane where it co-localizes with phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1. By binding to the PH domains of both Akt and phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1, D3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides appear to also induce conformational changes that permit phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 to phosphorylate the activation loop of Akt. The paradigm of Akt activation via phosphoinositide-dependent phosphorylation provided a framework for research into the mechanism of activation of other members of the AGC kinase group (p70S6K, PKC, and PKA) and members of the Tec tyrosine kinase family (TecI, TecII, Btk/Atk, Itk/Tsk/Emt, Txk/Rlk, and Bm/Etk). The result was the discovery that these kinases and Akt are activated by overlapping pathways. In this review, we present our current understanding of the regulation and function of the Akt kinase and we discuss the common and unique features of the activation processes of Akt and the AGC and Tec kinase families. In addition, we present an overview of the biosynthesis of phosphoinositides that contribute to the regulation of these kinases.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) generate specific inositol lipids that have been implicated in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation, survival, differentiation and cytoskeletal changes. One of the best characterized targets of PI3K lipid products is the protein kinase Akt or protein kinase B (PKB). In quiescent cells, PKB resides in the cytosol in a low-activity conformation. Upon cellular stimulation, PKB is activated through recruitment to cellular membranes by PI3K lipid products and phosphorylation by 3'-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1). Here we review the mechanism by which PKB is activated and the downstream actions of this multifunctional kinase. We also discuss the evidence that PDK1 may be involved in the activation of protein kinases other than PKB, the mechanisms by which this activity of PDK1 could be regulated and the possibility that some of the currently postulated PKB substrates targets might in fact be phosphorylated by PDK1-regulated kinases other than PKB.

Abstract
PTEN is a tumor suppressor with sequence homology to protein-tyrosine phosphatases and the cytoskeleton protein tensin. PTEN is capable of dephosphorylating phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-trisphosphate in vitro and down-regulating its levels in insulin-stimulated 293 cells. To study the role of PTEN in insulin signaling, we overexpressed PTEN in 3T3-L1 adipocytes approximately 30-fold above uninfected or control virus (green fluorescent protein)-infected cells, using an adenovirus gene transfer system. PTEN overexpression inhibited insulin-induced 2-deoxy-glucose uptake by 36%, GLUT4 translocation by 35%, and membrane ruffling by 50%, all of which are phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent processes, compared with uninfected cells or cells infected with control virus. Microinjection of an anti-PTEN antibody increased basal and insulin stimulated GLUT4 translocation, suggesting that inhibition of endogenous PTEN function led to an increase in intracellular phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate levels, which stimulates GLUT4 translocation. Further, insulin-induced phosphorylation of downstream targets Akt and p70S6 kinase were also inhibited significantly by overexpression of PTEN, whereas tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and IRS-1 or the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase were not affected, suggesting that the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway remains fully functional. Thus, we conclude that PTEN may regulate phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent insulin signaling pathways in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Abstract
The expansion of an unstable CAG repeat causes spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) and several other neurodegenerative diseases. How polyglutamine expansions render the resulting proteins toxic to neurons, however, remains elusive. Hypothesizing that long polyglutamine tracts alter gene expression, we found certain neuronal genes involved in signal transduction and calcium homeostasis sequentially downregulated in SCA1 mice. These genes were abundant in Purkinje cells, the primary site of SCA1 pathogenesis; moreover, their downregulation was mediated by expanded ataxin-1 and occurred before detectable pathology. Similar downregulation occurred in SCA1 human tissues. Altered gene expression may be the earliest mediator of polyglutamine toxicity.

Abstract
Accumulation of ceramide has been reported in stress- and receptor-induced apoptosis in the nervous system. However, its role in apoptosis signaling remains elusive. We describe here the inhibition of the NGF-activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-PKB/Akt1 survival pathway by the cell permeable analog C2-ceramide. C2-ceramide did not inhibit ERK, PI3K, or PDK1 activities and did not alter the translocation of PDK1 and Akt1 to the plasma membrane, but blocked nuclear translocation of Akt1. Down-regulation of the Akt pathway was due to enhanced dephosphorylation of Akt1 at residues T308 and S473. Moreover, Akt1 was dephosphorylated in vitro by a cation-independent phosphatase involving ceramide-activated protein phosphatase (CAPP). Membrane-anchored Akt1 was more resistant to dephosphorylation/inactivation by C2-ceramide than wild-type Akt1. Consistently, N-myristylated-Akt1 conferred resistance to the apoptosis induced by C2-ceramide in PC12 cells. These results provide a novel mechanism for induction of apoptosis by ceramide in nerve-derived cells.

Abstract
A segment of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase responsible for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3)) binding was characterized and confirmed by three different approaches employing the fully active expressed catalytic domain of the enzyme. Part of this moiety was protected from limited tryptic proteolysis by InsP(3). Sequencing of two fragments of 16 and 21 kDa, generated in the absence or presence of InsP(3), respectively, identified segment Glu-271 to Arg-305 as being protected. 15 monoclonal antibodies, all binding to epitopes within this region, inhibited enzyme activity and interfered with inositol phosphate binding. Detailed enzyme kinetic parameters of 32 site-directed mutants revealed residues Arg-276 and Lys-303 in this segment and Arg-322, located nearby, as directly involved in and five other closely neighbored residues, all located within a segment of 73 amino acids, as also influencing InsP(3) binding. Part of this region is similar in sequence to an InsP(3) binding segment in InsP(3) receptors. Combined with the finding that mutants influencing only ATP binding all lie outside this region, these data indicate that an InsP(3) binding core domain is inserted between two segments acting together in ATP binding and phosphate transfer.

Abstract
The yeast protein Sac1p is involved in a range of cellular functions, including inositol metabolism, actin cytoskeletal organization, endoplasmic reticulum ATP transport, phosphatidylinositol-phosphatidylcholine transfer protein function, and multiple-drug sensitivity. The activity of Sac1p and its relationship to these phenotypes are unresolved. We show here that the regulation of lipid phosphoinositides in sac1 mutants is defective, resulting in altered levels of all lipid phos- phoinositides, particularly phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. We have identified two proteins with homology to Sac1p that can suppress drug sensitivity and also restore the levels of the phosphoinositides in sac1 mutants. Overexpression of truncated forms of these suppressor genes confirmed that suppression was due to phosphoinositide phosphatase activity within these proteins. We have now demonstrated this activity for Sac1p and have characterized its specificity. The in vitro phosphatase activity and specificity of Sac1p were not altered by some mutations. Indeed, in vivo mutant Sac1p phosphatase activity also appeared unchanged under conditions in which cells were drug-resistant. However, under different growth conditions, both drug sensitivity and the phosphatase defect were manifest. It is concluded that SAC1 encodes a novel lipid phosphoinositide phosphatase in which specific mutations can cause the sac1 phenotypes by altering the in vivo regulation of the protein rather than by destroying phosphatase activity.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3'-K) family of lipid kinases play a critical role in cell proliferation, survival, vesicle trafficking, motility, cytoskeletal rearrangements, and oncogenesis. To identify downstream effectors of PI 3'-K, we developed a novel screen to isolate proteins that bind to the major products of PI 3'-K: phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns-3,4-P(2)) and PtdIns-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns-3,4,5-P(3)). This screen uses synthetic biotinylated analogs of these lipids in conjunction with libraries of radiolabeled proteins that are produced by coupled in vitro transcription/translation reactions. The feasibility of the screen was initially demonstrated using avidin-coated beads prebound to biotinylated PtdIns-3,4-P(2) and PtdIns-3,4,5-P(3) to specifically isolate the pleckstrin homology domain of the serine/threonine kinase Akt. We then demonstrated the utility of this technique in isolating novel 3'-phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol (3'-PPI)-binding proteins through the preliminary screening of in vitro transcribed/translated cDNAs from a small pool expression library derived from mouse spleen. Three proteins were isolated that bound specifically to 3'PPIs. Two of these proteins have been previously characterized as PIP3BP/p42(IP4) and the PtdIns-3,4,5-P(3)-dependent serine/threonine kinase phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1. The third protein is a novel protein that contains only a Src homology 2 domain and a pleckstrin homology domain; this protein has a higher specificity for both PtdIns-3,4,5-P(3) and PtdIns-3,4-P(2) than for PtdIns-4, 5-bisphosphate. Transcripts of this novel gene are present in every tissue analyzed but are most prominently expressed in spleen. We have renamed this new protein PHISH for 3'-phosphoinositide-interacting Src homology-containing protein. This report demonstrates the utility of this technique for isolating and characterizing 3'-PPI-binding proteins and has broad applicability for the isolation of binding domains for other lipid products.

Abstract
SHIP2 is a new member of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family showing homology to SHIP1. The structure of both enzymes is characterized by the presence of a 5' SH2 domain, a central catalytic domain, and a 3' proline-rich region. Recent results suggest that SHIP2 and SHIP1 act downstream of various receptors by removing a phosphate from the 5' position of the phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-triphosphate product and of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. Human SHIP2 is highly expressed in adult heart, skeletal muscle, and placenta, whereas SHIP1 expression is limited to the hematopoietic system. We report here the molecular analysis of the mouse SHIP2 cDNA and the corresponding protein, the structure of the gene, and the identification of its promoter. SHIP2 mRNA expression was analyzed in embryonic and adult mouse tissues by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and in situ hybridization. In embryonic day 15.5 mice, SHIP2 was strongly expressed in the liver, specific regions of the central nervous system, the thymus, the lung, and the cartilage perichondrium. In adult mice, SHIP2 mRNA was markedly present in the brain and the thymus and at different stages of spermatozoa maturation in the seminiferous tubules. The subtle differences in the protein structure of SHIP2 and SHIP1 as well as their different patterns of expression are discussed.

Abstract
The EH domain is an evolutionary conserved protein-protein interaction domain present in a growing number of proteins from yeast to mammals. Even though the domain was discovered just 5 years ago, a great deal has been learned regarding its three-dimensional structure and binding specificities. Moreover, a number of cellular ligands of the domain have been identified and demonstrated to define a complex network of protein-protein interactions in the eukaryotic cell. Interestingly, many of the EH-containing and EH-binding proteins display characteristics of endocytic "accessory" proteins, suggesting that the principal function of the EH network is to regulate various steps in endocytosis. In addition, recent evidence suggests that the EH network might work as an "integrator" of signals controlling cellular pathways as diverse as endocytosis, nucleocytosolic export, and ultimately cell proliferation.

Abstract
Many signaling pathways converge on and regulate phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) enzymes whose inositol lipid products are key mediators of intracellular signaling. Different PI3K isoforms generate specific lipids that bind to FYVE and pleckstrin homology (PH) domains in a variety of proteins, affecting their localization, conformation, and activities. Here we review the activation mechanisms of the different types of PI3Ks and their downstream actions, with focus on the PI3Ks that are acutely triggered by extracellular stimulation.

Abstract
The D-3 phosphoinositide lipids phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-trisphophate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)] and phosphatidylinositol 3, 4-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4)P(2)] represent upstream components of a major signaling pathway that is strongly activated by the T cell costimulatory molecule CD28. A major route for degradation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) (and hence, regulation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)-driven effector pathways), involves its conversion to PtdIns(3,4)P(2) by the 145-kDa SH2-containing inositol (poly)phosphate 5-phosphatase (SHIP). In this study, we demonstrate using the murine T cell hybridoma DC27.1, that SHIP is strongly tyrosine phosphorylated after ligation of CD28 by either mAb or the natural ligand B7.1. Ligation of CD3 also stimulates SHIP tyrosine phosphorylation and an additive effect on tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP is observed when both CD3 and CD28 are ligated. The tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP in response to CD28 ligation correlates with a marked redistribution of SHIP from the cytosol to the plasma membrane, as well as an increase in the in vitro 5-phosphatase activity associated with SHIP immunoprecipitates derived from CD28-stimulated cells. However, we have been unable to detect a direct association between CD28 and SHIP, so the mechanisms by which CD28 exerts the observed effects on SHIP remain unclear. This is the first demonstration that SHIP is a biochemical target for CD28 and suggests that SHIP may be involved in the regulation of T cell activation.

Abstract
The highly conserved 42-kDa protein, p42IP4 was identified recently from porcine brain. It has also been identified similarly in bovine, rat and human brain as a protein with two pleckstrin homology domains that binds Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 with high affinity and selectivity. The brain-specific p42IP4 occurs both as membrane-associated and cytosolic protein. Here, we investigate whether p42IP4 can be translocated from membranes by ligand interaction. p42IP4 is released from cerebellar membranes by incubation with Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. This dissociation is concentration-dependent (> 100 nM), occurs within a few minutes and and is ligand-specific. p42IP4 specifically associates with PtdIns(3, 4,5)P3-containing lipid vesicles and can dissociate from these vesicles by addition of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. p42IP4 is only transiently translocated from the membranes as Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 can be degraded by a membrane-associated 5-phosphatase to Ins(1,3,4)P3. Then, p42IP4 re-binds to the membranes from which it can be re-released by re-addition of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Thus, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 specifically induces the dissociation from membranes of a PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 binding protein that can reversibly re-associate with the membranes. Quantitative analysis of the inositol phosphates in rat brain tissue revealed a concentration of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 comparable to that required for p42IP4 translocation. Thus, in vivo p42IP4 might interact with membranes in a ligand-controlled manner and be involved in physiological processes induced by the two second messengers Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3.

Abstract
In this review, we have discussed recent progress in the study of the regulation that controls phospholipid metabolism in S. cerevisiae. This regulation occurs on multiple levels and is tightly integrated with a large number of other cellular processes and related metabolic and signal transduction pathways. Progress in deciphering this complex regulation has been very rapid in the last few years, aided by the availability of the sequence of the entire Saccharomyces genome. The assignment of functions to the remaining unassigned open reading frames, as well as ascertainment of remaining gene-enzyme relationships in phospholipid biosynthesis in yeast, promises to provide detailed understanding of the genetic regulation of a crucial area of metabolism in a key eukaryotic model system. Since the processes of lipid metabolism, secretion, and signal transduction show fundamental similarities in all eukaryotes, the dissection of this regulation in yeast promises to have wide application to our understanding of metabolic control in all eukaryotes.

Abstract
The level of phosphorylation within cells is tightly regulated by the concerted action of protein kinases and protein phosphatases [Hunter, T. (1995) Cell 80, 225-236]. Disregulation in the activity of either of these players can lead to cellular transformation. Many protein tyrosine kinases are proto-oncogenes and it has been postulated that some protein phosphatases may act as tumor suppressors. Herein we will review the recent findings addressing the roles the candidate tumor suppressor PTEN/MMAC1/TEP1 (PTEN, phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted from chromosome 10; MMAC 1, mutated in multiple advanced cancers 1; TEP1, TGF beta regulated and epithelial cell enriched phosphatase 1) plays in signal transduction and tumorigenesis. PTEN is a dual specificity protein phosphatase (towards phospho-Ser/Thr and phospho-Tyr) and, unexpectedly, also has a phosphoinositide 3-phosphatase activity. PTEN plays an important role in the modulation of the 1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PtdIns 3-kinase) pathway, by catalyzing the degradation of the PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 generated by PtdIns 3-kinase; this inhibits the downstream functions mediated by the PtdIns 3-kinase pathway, such as activation of protein kinase B (PKB, also known as Akt), cell survival and cell proliferation. Furthermore, PTEN modulates cell migration and invasion by negatively regulating the signals generated at the focal adhesions, through the direct dephosphorylation and inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Growth factor receptor signaling is also negatively regulated by PTEN, through the inhibition of the adaptor protein Shc. While some of the functions of PTEN have been elucidated, it is clear that there is much more to discover about the roles of this unique protein.

Abstract
Wild-type yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are surprisingly resistant to a wide range of drugs and agents. We had previously isolated novobiocin-sensitive mutants to aid the study of the intracellular target for this drug. Characterization of one of these mutants, mds1, revealed that it was sensitive not only to novobiocin but also to a wide range of drugs. The nature of this multiple drug-sensitive phenotype was shown to be different from that of previously isolated multiple drug-sensitive mutants. We have shown that the multiple drug-sensitivity of mds1 is due to mutations within the gene SAC1 and have identified a variety of mutations within the gene from the Mds1 strain. SAC1 encodes a protein which has been previously implicated in the correct function of the actin cytoskeleton, in inositol metabolism, in ATP transport in the endoplasmic reticulum and in Sec14p (PI-TP) function. We have shown that multiple drug-sensitivity is a new phenotype seen in some, but not all, of the previously characterized sac1 mutants. Based on our findings, we propose a mechanism by which Sac1p could affect drug resistance and also mediate other effects on cell growth.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides serve as direct local modulators or recruiters of the protein machineries that control membrane trafficking. In the past year, examples of phosphoinositide effectors include regulators of small GTPases in coat assembly, dynamin in clathrin coated vesicle formation and FYVE finger proteins in endocytic membrane traffic. A novel phosphoinositide appears to regulate effectors involved in the formation of multivesicular endosomes.

Abstract
We have cloned a cDNA encoding a novel protein pharbin with a homology to inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases. Pharbin contains relatively well-conserved catalytic motifs for 5-phosphatase, a proline-rich sequence corresponding to the SH3-binding motif, and a sequence consistent with the CaaX motif at the C-terminus. COS-7 cells transfected with pharbin exhibited elevated hydrolytic activity on the 5-phosphate group of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, and phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate. Thus, pharbin indeed serves as an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase. When pharbin was transfected to C3H/10T1/2 fibroblasts, it was located to the plasma membrane-associated structures including membrane ruffles. The cells were converted to dendritic forms within 24 h. The protein with deleted or point-mutated CaaX motif hardly induced the dendritic forms but remained associated with the membranes. These results imply that the CaaX motif is required for the morphological alteration but that some other structural element is likely to also be responsible for the membrane localization.

Abstract
The activation of many hematopoietic cells via cytokine receptors, as well as B and T cell receptors, leads to the tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc and its association with both Grb2-Sos1 complexes and with a 145 kDa protein referred to as the SH2 containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP1). In a search of putative 5-phosphatase isoenzymes, we have isolated a second SH2 domain containing inositol 5-phosphatase, referred to as (SHIP2). Both SHIP1 and SHIP2 are coexpressed in human T lymphocytes. This was shown at the protein level by Western blot analysis in transformed T cell lines and in peripheral blood T lymphocytes either unstimulated or after in vitro activation through TCR-CD3 complex. SHIP1 protein level was not modulated after activation of T lymphocytes, in contrast to SHIP2, which was increased after long-term stimulation. SHIP1 was tyrosine phosphorylated in resting naive T cells. This was not observed in the transformed T cell lines. T lymphocyte is therefore a model of coexpression of the two SH2-containing inositol 5-phosphatases SHIP1 and SHIP2.

Abstract
The oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe (OCRL) is an X-linked disorder characterized by major abnormalities of eyes, nervous system, and kidneys. Mutations in the OCRL1 gene have been associated with the disease. OCRL1 encodes a phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-biphosphate (PtdIns[4,5]P2) 5-phosphatase. We have examined the OCRL1 gene in eight unrelated patients with OCRL and have found seven new mutations and one recurrent in-frame deletion. Among the new mutations, two nonsense mutations (R317X and E558X) and three other frameshift mutations caused premature termination of the protein. A missense mutation, R483G, was located in the highly conserved PtdIns(4,5)P2 5-phosphatase domain. Finally, one frameshift mutation, 2799delC, modifies the C-terminal part of OCRL1, with an extension of six amino acids. Altogether, 70% of missense mutations are located in exon 15, and 52% of all mutations cluster in exons 11-15. We also identified two new microsatellite markers for the OCRL1 locus, and we detected a germline mosaicism in one family. This observation has direct implications for genetic counseling of Lowe syndrome families.

Abstract
The SEC14 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a phosphatidylinositol transfer protein required for secretory protein movement from the Golgi. Mutation of SAC1, a gene of unknown function, restores secretory flow in sec14-1(ts) strains. The existing model for the bypass of the sec14-1(ts) defect by sac1-22 involves stimulation of sphingolipid biosynthesis and, in particular, the synthesis of mannosyl-diinositolphosphoryl-ceramide with concomitant increases in Golgi diacylglycerol levels. To test this model, we disrupted IPT1, the mannosyl-diinositolphosphoryl-ceramide synthase of S. cerevisiae. Disruption of the IPT1 gene had no effect on the ability of sac1-22 to bypass sec14-1(ts). Furthermore, sphingolipid analysis of sec14-1(ts) and sec14-1(ts) sac1-22 strains showed that mannosyl-diinositolphosphoryl-ceramide synthesis was not stimulated in the bypass mutant. However, the sec14-1(ts) strain had elevated mannosyl-monoinositolphosphoryl-ceramide levels, and the sec14-1(ts) sac1-22 strain showed an 8-fold increase in phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate along with a decrease in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. Cellular diacylglycerol levels, measured by [14C]acetate incorporation, did not differ between the sec14-1(ts) and the sec14-1 sac1-22 bypass strains, although disruption of IPT1 in the bypass strain resulted in reduced levels. These data indicate that phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, rather than mannosyl-diinositolphosphoryl-ceramide, accumulates in the sec14-1(ts) sac1-22 bypass strain, and that Golgi diacylglycerol accumulation is not required for bypass of the sec14-1(ts) growth and secretory phenotypes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein kinase B (PKB) is activated by phosphorylation of Thr308 and of Ser473. Thr308 is phosphorylated by the 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1) but the identity of the kinase that phosphorylates Ser473 (provisionally termed PDK2) is unknown. RESULTS The kinase domain of PDK1 interacts with a region of protein kinase C-related kinase-2 (PRK2), termed the PDK1-interacting fragment (PIF). PIF is situated carboxy-terminal to the kinase domain of PRK2, and contains a consensus motif for phosphorylation by PDK2 similar to that found in PKBalpha, except that the residue equivalent to Ser473 is aspartic acid. Mutation of any of the conserved residues in the PDK2 motif of PIF prevented interaction of PIF with PDK1. Remarkably, interaction of PDK1 with PIF, or with a synthetic peptide encompassing the PDK2 consensus sequence of PIF, converted PDK1 from an enzyme that could phosphorylate only Thr308 of PKBalpha to one that phosphorylates both Thr308 and Ser473 of PKBalpha in a manner dependent on phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5) trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3). Furthermore, the interaction of PIF with PDK1 converted the PDK1 from a form that is not directly activated by PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 to a form that is activated threefold by PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. We have partially purified a kinase from brain extract that phosphorylates Ser473 of PKBalpha in a PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-dependent manner and that is immunoprecipitated with PDK1 antibodies. CONCLUSIONS PDK1 and PDK2 might be the same enzyme, the substrate specificity and activity of PDK1 being regulated through its interaction with another protein(s). PRK2 is a probable substrate for PDK1.

Abstract
It is well known that phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) plays important roles not only as a precursor lipid for generating second messengers but also as a regulator of cytoskeletal re-organization. The last step of PtdIns(4,5)P2 synthesis is catalyzed by PtdIns monophosphate(PIP) kinase. So far, three type I PIP kinases(alpha, beta, and gamma), which phosphorylate PtdIns(4) to PtdIns(4,5)P2, and three type II PIP kinases(alpha, beta, gamma), which phosphorylate PtdIns(5)P to PtdIns(4,5)P2 have been found. On the other hand, several inositolpolyphosphate 5-phosphatases which convert PtdIns(4,5)P2 to PtdIns(4) are known. Among them, synaptojanin, which associates with tyrosine kinase receptors through an adaptor protein, Ash/Grb2, in response to growth factors, is capable of hydrolyzing PtdIns(4,5)P2 bound to actin regulatory proteins, resulting in actin filament re-organization downstream of tyrosine kinases.
