Abstract
Inositol phosphates (IPs) are a class of signaling molecules regulating cell physiology. The best-characterized IP, the calcium release factor IP3, is generated by phospholipase C hydrolysis of phosphoinositides lipids. For historical and technical reasons, IPs synthesis is believed to originate from the lipid-generated IP3. While this is true in yeast, our work has demonstrated that other organisms use a “soluble” (nonlipid) route to synthesize IPs. This soluble pathway depends on the metabolic status of the cells, and is under the control of the kinase ITPK1, which phosphorylates inositol monophosphate likely generated from glucose. The data shed light on the evolutionary origin of IPs, signaling and tightening the link between these small molecules and basic metabolism. Inositol phosphates (IPs) comprise a network of phosphorylated molecules that play multiple signaling roles in eukaryotes. IPs synthesis is believed to originate with IP3 generated from PIP2 by phospholipase C (PLC). Here, we report that in mammalian cells PLC-generated IPs are rapidly recycled to inositol, and uncover the enzymology behind an alternative “soluble” route to synthesis of IPs. Inositol tetrakisphosphate 1-kinase 1 (ITPK1)—found in Asgard archaea, social amoeba, plants, and animals—phosphorylates I(3)P1 originating from glucose-6-phosphate, and I(1)P1 generated from sphingolipids, to enable synthesis of IP6. We also found using PAGE mass assay that metabolic blockage by phosphate starvation surprisingly increased IP6 levels in a ITPK1-dependent manner, establishing a route to IP6 controlled by cellular metabolic status, that is not detectable by traditional [3H]-inositol labeling. The presence of ITPK1 in archaeal clades thought to define eukaryogenesis indicates that IPs had functional roles before the appearance of the eukaryote.

Abstract
Airway epithelium has been shown to exhibit intracellular calcium waves after mechanical stimulation. Two classes of mechanism have been proposed to explain calcium wave propagation: diffusion through gap junctions of the intracellular messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), and diffusion of paracrine extracellular messengers such as ATP. We have used single cell recordings of airway epithelium to parameterize a model of an airway epithelial cell. This was then incorporated into a spatial model of a cell culture where both mechanisms for calcium wave propagation are possible. It is shown that a decreasing return on the radius of Ca2+ wave propagation is achieved as the amount of ATP released from the stimulated cell increases. It is therefore shown that for a Ca2+ wave to propagate large distances, a significant fraction of the intracellular ATP pool would be required to be released. Further to this, the radial distribution of maximal calcium response from the stimulated cell does not produce the same flat profile of maximal calcium response seen in experiential studies. This suggests that an additional mechanism is important in Ca2+ wave propagation, such as regenerative release of ATP from cells downstream of the stimulated cell.

Abstract
The fertilization Ca2+ wave in Xenopus laevis is a single, large wave of elevated free Ca2+ that is initiated at the point of sperm-egg fusion and traverses the entire width of the egg. This Ca2+ wave involves an increase in inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) resulting from the interaction of the sperm and egg, which then results in the activation of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release machinery. The extraordinarily large size of this cell (1.2 mm diameter) together with the small surface region of sperm-receptor activation makes special demands on the IP3-dependent Ca2+ mobilizing machinery. We propose a detailed model of the fertilization Ca2+ wave in Xenopus eggs that requires an accompanying wave of IP3 production. While the Ca2+ wave is initiated by a localized increase of IP3 near the site of sperm-egg fusion, the Ca2+ wave propagates via IP3 production correlated with the Ca2+ wave-possibly via Ca(2+)-mediated PLC activation. Such a Ca(2+)-mediated IP(3) production wave has not been required previously to explain the fertilization Ca2+ wave in eggs; we argue this is necessary to explain the observed IP3 dynamics in Xenopus eggs. To test our hypothesis, we have measured the IP3 levels from 20 nl "sips" of the egg cortex during wave propagation. We were unable to detect the low IP3 levels in unfertilized eggs, but after fertilization, [IP3] ranged from 175 to 430 nM at the sperm entry point and from 120 to 700 nM 90 degrees away once the Ca2+ wave passed that region about 2 min after fertilization. Prior to the Ca2+ wave reaching that region the IP3 levels were undetectable. Since significant IP3 could not diffuse to this region from the sperm entry point within 2 min, this observation is consistent with a regenerative wave of IP3 production.

Abstract
Based on the partial peptide sequence of inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate 3-kinase purified with 135 000-fold enrichment from chicken erythrocytes, cDNA-fragments were cloned by RT-PCR using degenerate oligonucleotides. Subsequent hybridization screening of an embryonic chicken cDNA library and 5'-RACE yielded a cDNA-contig of 2418 bp, encoding a 452 amino acid protein. The amino acid sequence shows the highest degree of homology with A-isoforms of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (65% identities), whereas homology towards B and C isoforms was lower (57% and 52% amino acid identities respectively). These findings reveal a new tissue-specific pattern of A-isoform expression, a form which so far has only been found in brain and testes. Two overlapping lambda-genomic clones for chicken inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase, isolated by hybridization screening, covered 18 499 bp of genomic sequence. This contig included four exons: three of them were present in all cDNA clones, whereas one was only represented in a single cDNA clone. In addition, the sequence of the latter differed from the other cDNAs by an in-frame deletion of 72 bp within the coding region for the catalytic domain of the enzyme. This divergent cDNA suggests the existence of alternative splice products, at least in embryonic tissue.A comparison of the position of introns, with the respective introns known from the corresponding gene from Caenorhabditis elegans, revealed a high degree of conservation of intron positions between vertebrates and invertebrates. Functional data for the enzyme suggests that the conserved exons represent defined functional protein modules.

Abstract
The pathway and kinetics of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) metabolism were measured in Xenopus laevis oocytes and cytoplasmic extracts of oocytes. Degradation of microinjected IP3 in intact oocytes was similar to that in the extracts containing comparable concentrations of IP3 ([IP3]). The rate and route of metabolism of IP3 depended on the [IP3] and the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]). At low [IP3] (100 nM) and high [Ca2+] (>/=1 microM), IP3 was metabolized predominantly by inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (3-kinase) with a half-life of 60 s. As the [IP3] was increased, inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (5-phosphatase) degraded progressively more IP3. At a [IP3] of 8 microM or greater, the dephosphorylation of IP3 was the dominant mode of IP3 removal irrespective of the [Ca2+]. At low [IP3] and low [Ca2+] (both </=400 nM), the activities of the 5-phosphatase and 3-kinase were comparable. The calculated range of action of IP3 in the oocyte was approximately 300 micron suggesting that IP3 acts as a global messenger in oocytes. In contrast to IP3, inositol 1,3,4, 5-tetrakisphosphate (IP4) was metabolized very slowly. The half-life of IP4 (100 nM) was 30 min and independent of the [Ca2+]. IP4 may act to sustain Ca2+ signals initiated by IP3. The half-life of both IP3 and IP4 in Xenopus oocytes was an order of magnitude or greater than that in small mammalian cells.

Abstract
A series of key amino acids involved in Ins(1,4,5)P3 (InsP3) binding and catalytic activity of rat brain InsP3 3-kinase has been identified. The catalytic domain is at the C-terminal end and restricted to a maximum of 275 amino acids [Takazawa and Erneux (1991) Biochem. J. 280, 125-129]. In this study, newly prepared 5'-deletion and site-directed mutants have been compared both for InsP3 binding and InsP3 3-kinase activity. When the protein was expressed from L259 to R459, the activity was lost but InsP3 binding was conserved. Another deletion mutant that had lost only four amino acids after L259 had lost InsP3 binding, and this finding suggests that these residues (i.e. L259DCK262) are involved in InsP3 binding. To further support the data, we have produced two mutants by site-directed mutagenesis on residues C261 and K262. The two new enzymes were designated M4 (C261S) and M5 (K262A). M4 showed similar Vmax and Km values for InsP3 and ATP to wild-type enzyme. In contrast, M5 was totally inactive but had kept the ability to bind to calmodulin-Sepharose. C-terminal deletion mutants that had lost five, seven or nine amino acids showed a large decrease in InsP3 binding and InsP3 3-kinase activity. One mutant that had lost five amino acids (M2) was purified to apparent homogeneity: Km values for both substrates appeared unchanged but Vmax was decreased approx. 40-fold compared with the wild-type enzyme. The results indicate that (1) a positively charged amino acid residue K262 is essential for InsP3 binding and (2) amino acids at the C-terminal end of the protein are necessary to act as a catalyst in the InsP3 3-kinase reaction.

Abstract
We previously reported the isolation of a rat cDNA clone encoding a protein with significant sequence homology to the B isoform of human myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (IP3 3-kinase B); this protein was thus designated rat IP3 3-kinase B [Thomas, Brake, Luzio, Stanley and Banting (1994) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1220, 219-222]. However, no IP3 kinase isoform had been shown to generate the physiologically important isoform of inositol tetrakisphosphate, i.e. inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. We now present direct evidence that the putative rat IP3 3-kinase B is genuinely an IP3 3-kinase. We also show that the enzyme exists both as a peripheral membrane protein tightly associated with the cytosolic face of the extended endoplasmic reticulum network, and as a cytosolic protein. Association of the IP3 3-kinase with membranes is not affected by treatment with brefeldin A, Na2CO3 (pH 11.5), 2 M NaCl, or alteration of [Ca2+]. However, treatment of isolated membranes with 4 M urea leads to dissociation of the kinase from the membrane, implying that membrane association involves specific, conformation-dependent protein-protein interactions. The fact that IP3 3-kinase B is localized exclusively to membranes of Ca2+ stores, is consistent with a model where this kinase plays a role in IP3-dependent Ca2+ release.

Abstract
We have expressed rat myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) 3-kinase B as both a full-length, recombinant, non-fusion protein and a full-length, recombinant, fusion protein with maltose-binding protein (MBP) in Escherichia coli. The fusion protein with MBP is soluble, binds calmodulin and is enzymically active whereas the non-fusion protein is insoluble and does not bind calmodulin unless co-expressed with bacterial chaperone proteins (either GroES and GroEL, or DnaK, DnaJ and GrpE). However, soluble, calmodulin-binding non-fusion IP3 3-kinase B is enzymically inactive. The catalytic domain of the enzyme has previously been shown to reside near the C-terminus; the results we present suggest an auto-regulatory role for the N-terminus.

Abstract
D-myo-Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) is a critical second messenger involved in signal transduction, i.e., calcium homeostasis. InsP3-kinase directly regulates the levels of InsP3 and D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4). InsP3 3-kinase is a calmodulin (CaM)-dependent enzyme and is also a target for phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC). Molecular cloning of cDNA's encoding proteins presenting InsP3 3-kinase activity establish the existence of distinct isoenzymes (at least three: A, B and C). These isoforms are differentially expressed and regulated by calcium/CaM. Site-directed mutagenesis and chemical modification of InsP3 3-kinase A led to the identification of three charged residues involved in ATP/Mg2+ binding among the catalytic domain and a hydrophobic residue taking part of the CaM binding site.

Abstract
A multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase (formerly known as inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate 3-phosphatase) was purified approx. 22,000-fold from rat liver. The final preparation migrated on SDS/PAGE as a doublet with a mean apparent molecular mass of 47 kDa. Upon size-exclusion chromatography, the enzyme was eluted with an apparent molecular mass of 36 kDa. This enzyme was approximately evenly distributed between the 'rough' and 'smooth' subfractions of endoplasmic reticulum. There was a 20-fold range of specific activities of this phosphatase in CHAPS-solubilized particulate fractions prepared from the following rat tissues: liver, heart, kidney, testis and brain. However, each of these extracts contained different amounts of endogenous inhibitors of enzyme activity. After removal of these inhibitors by MonoQ anion-exchange chromatography, there was only a 2.5-fold range of specific activities; kidney contained the most and brain contained the least. We prepared and characterized polyclonal antiserum to the hepatic phosphatase, which immunoprecipitated 85-100% of both particulate and soluble phosphatase activities. The antiserum also immunoprecipitated, with equivalent efficacy, CHAPS-solubilized phosphatase activities from heart, kidney, testis, brain and erythrocytes (all prepared from rat). Our data strengthen the case that the function of the mammalian phosphatase is unrelated to the metabolism of Ca(2+)-mobilizing cellular signals. The CHAPS-solubilized phosphatase from turkey erythrocytes was not immunoprecipitated by the polyclonal antiserum, and is therefore an isoform that is structurally distinct, and possibly functionally unique.

Abstract
[3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3- and [3H]ryanodine-binding sites were characterized in membrane fractions from guinea-pig intestinal smooth muscle (longitudinal layer) and their subcellular localization was investigated by analytical cell-fractionation techniques. Fractions collected at low centrifugal fields (N and M fractions) contained predominantly low-affinity [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3-binding sites (KD 80 nM), whereas microsomal (P) fractions contained only high-affinity binding sites (KD 5 nM). Total sedimentable high-affinity binding sites of [3H]Ins(1,4,5)P3 were 9-10-fold more numerous than those of [3H]ryanodine. Both high-affinity binding sites were purified in microsomal fractions, and their sub-microsomal distribution patterns after isopycnic density-gradient centrifugation were similar to those of presumed endoplasmic reticulum (ER) constituents, indicating that Ins(1,4,5)P3 and ryanodine receptors were localized primarily in ER and probably associated with rough as well as smooth ER. However, the stoichiometric ratio of Ins(1,4,5)P3 to ryanodine receptors was distinctly higher in high-density RNA-rich subfractions than in low-density RNA-poor subfractions, suggesting that Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors were somewhat concentrated in the ribosome-coated portions of ER. The low overall stoichiometric ratio of ryanodine to Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors in intestinal smooth muscle (1:9-10) might explain, at least partly, the existence of a Ca(2+)-storage compartment devoid of ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ channels, but equipped with Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive channels, in saponin-permeabilized smooth-muscle cells [Iino, Kobayashi and Endo (1988) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 152, 417-422].

Abstract
1. The phosphatidyl inositol (PI) second messenger system has been extensively investigated in the past decade. This complex pathway results in the production of two second messengers, one of which, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, will be the focus of this review. 2. The intracellular receptor for this second messenger (IP3R) has been purified, reconstituted and extensively characterized in both brain and peripheral tissues. 3. Localization and functional studies show that IP3 binding causes the receptor to release portions of the intracellular calcium stores. 4. Multiple modulators of the receptor have been identified, including pH, calcium concentration, adenine nucleotide concentration and phosphorylation. 5. The cDNA for this molecule has been cloned from a number of sources. Studies of the molecular structure of the receptor have revealed additional levels of complexity including multiple alternative splicing events in the initially cloned cerebellar (Type I) receptor, as well as the existence of highly related but distinct cDNAs which likely reflect a gene family. 6. There is suggestive evidence linking the PI system, and thus the IP3R, to bipolar disorder and the actions of lithium.

Abstract
Recombinant rat brain inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] 3-kinase was expressed in Escherichia coli as a beta-galactosidase fusion product. It could be adsorbed onto calmodulin-Sepharose and eluted in Ca(2+)-free medium as a 48-kDa protein. Purification could be achieved in a single step. Molecular evidence for a calmodulin-binding domain on Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase can be shown by the following approaches. (a) Inhibition of Ca2+/calmodulin stimulation by a synthetic peptide based on a candidate calmodulin-binding domain. The inhibition was mimicked by a well-characterized peptide derived from the sequence of smooth muscle myosin light-chain kinase calmodulin-binding site. (b) The construction of two mutants by site-directed mutagenesis of Trp165 to Gly or Arg. Both mutants displayed kinase activity but were no longer Ca2+/calmodulin sensitive, supporting, therefore, the role of Trp165 in calmodulin binding.

Abstract
Rat brain inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase A was expressed in Escherichia coli in order to identify the amino acid residues involved in substrate ATP/Mg2+ binding. Two amino acid regions that are conserved in the catalytic domain of InsP3 3-kinase isoenzymes A and B had characteristics consistent with two ATP/Mg(2+)-binding motives. Site-directed mutagenesis was performed on residues Lys-197, Lys-207 and Asp-414 to generate three mutant enzymes, referred to as C5 K197I, C5 K207I and C5 D414N. Comparison of the wild-type and mutant proteins with regard to enzymic activity revealed that C5 K197I exhibited 10% of control enzyme activity, C5 D414N was totally inactive and C5 K207I was fully active. The reduced levels of enzyme activity for C5 K197I and C5 D414N were correlated with an altered ability of the mutant enzymes to bind ATP/Mg2+, as determined by ATP-agarose affinity chromatography. Neither Ca2+/calmodulin binding nor InsP3 binding appeared to be affected. Mutant C5 K207I showed the same characteristics as the wild-type enzyme. Taken together, these results strongly indicated (i) that amino acid residues Lys-197 and Asp-414 are necessary for InsP3 3-kinase activity and form part of the ATP/Mg(2+)-binding domain, and (ii) that amino acid residues Lys-197, Lys-207 and Asp-414 are not involved in either InsP3 binding or enzyme stimulation by Ca2+/calmodulin.

Abstract
We have investigated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) metabolism in cerebellar membranes of normal humans and patients with dominant ataxia ('C' kindred), and also in cerebellar microsomes of Lurcher mutant mouse (a suggested model for cerebellar ataxia). Various [3H]InsP3 metabolites formed were separated by HPLC using 3 successive convex gradients of 1.7 M ammonium formate, pH 3.7. [3H]InsP3 metabolism was rapid and in 15- and 45-day-old control mice cerebella about 50% of [3H]InsP3 was metabolized within 20 s. In 15-day-old Lurcher mice the rate of [3H]InsP3 metabolism was significantly low (40% of normal). [3H]InsP3 metabolism was almost absent in 45-day-old Lurcher mice cerebellar microsomes. The decreased [3H]InsP3 metabolism was consistent with decreased recovery of the various inositol polyphosphates formed. Similarly, in cerebellar membranes of human patients with olivopontocerebellar atrophy (OPCA) a significant decrease in [3H]InsP3 metabolism was observed when compared with normal controls. These data suggest that altered phosphoinositide turnover may be associated with the onset of neuronal degeneration in human OPCA.

Abstract
In order to identify the amino acid residues involved in calmodulin (CaM) binding and catalytic activity, rat brain inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase was expressed in Escherichia coli as a beta-galactosidase fusion protein [clone C5; Takazawa, Vandekerckhove, Dumont & Erneux (1990) Biochem. J. 272, 107-112]. Three deletion mutants in the plasmid of clone C5 were generated using convenient restriction enzymes. The results show that the removal of 34 amino acids from the C-terminal end of InsP3 3-kinase resulted in an inactive protein which still interacted with CaM-Sepharose in a Ca2(+)-dependent way. The catalytic domain is thus located at the C-terminal end of the protein. A series of 5' deletion mutants was prepared and used to produce proteins with the same C-terminal end but shortened N-termini, varying in length by over 80 amino acids. Assay of InsP3 3-kinase activity in bacterial extracts indicated that a maximum of 275 amino acids in the C-terminal region may be sufficient for the construction of a catalytically active domain. Affinity chromatography on CaM-Sepharose of 5' and 3' deletion mutants revealed that the sequence stretching from Ser-156 to Leu-189 is involved in CaM binding and enzyme stimulation.

Abstract
The multiple functions of calmodulin in brain bring to light an apparent paradox in the mechanism of action of this multifunctional regulatory protein: How can the simultaneous calmodulin stimulation of enzymes with opposing functions, such as cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases and adenylate cyclase, which are responsible for the degradation and synthesis of cAMP, respectively, be physiologically significant? The same question applies to the simultaneous activation of protein kinases (in particular calmodulin kinase II) and a protein phosphatase (calcineurin). One could propose that the protein kinase(s) and the phosphatase may be located in different cells or in different cellular compartments, and are therefore not antagonizing each other. The same result could be achieved if the specific substrates of these enzymes have different cellular localizations. This does not seem to be the case. In many areas of the brain the two enzymes and their substrates coexist in the same cell. For example, the hippocampus is rich in calmodulin kinase II, calcineurin and substrates for the two enzymes. A more general scheme is presented here, based on different mechanisms of the calmodulin regulation of the two classes of enzyme, which helps to solve this apparent inconsistency in the mechanism of action of calmodulin.

Abstract
The accumulation of InsP1, InsP2, InsP3 and InsP4 isomers was investigated in bovine aortic endothelial cells labelled with [3H]inositol and stimulated with ATP. The separation of these isomers was performed by ion-pairing reverse-phase h.p.l.c. on a mu Bondapack C18 column for the InsP3 and InsP4 isomers and by ion-exchange h.p.l.c. on a Partisil SAX column for the InsP1 and InsP2 isomers. In unstimulated endothelial cells, a large amount of material was co-eluted with InsP5 and InsP6, whereas amounts of InsP3 and InsP4 were small. The addition of ATP (100 microM) induced a striking (35-fold stimulation) and transient increase of Ins(1,4,5)P3 that was maximal around 15 s. This peak was followed by a more sustained accumulation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,3,4)P3, but the amounts of these two metabolites accumulated in response to ATP were much smaller than that of Ins(1,4,5)P3. The increase in InsP2 isomers in response to ATP had similar characteristics: a rapid and transient accumulation of Ins(1,4)P2, followed by an increase of Ins(3,4)P2 and Ins(1,3)P2, which was more sustained but had a smaller magnitude. ATP also induced the accumulation of both Ins1P and Ins4P, but with different time courses: the level of Ins4P was maximal at 1 min (60 times the control value) and returned to baseline after 5 min, whereas the increase in Ins1P was undetectable at 1 min and reached a maximum after 5 min, which represented 240% of the basal level. These data indicate that Ins(1,4,5)P3, which is rapidly formed in aortic endothelial cells as a result of activation of P2Y receptors, is preferentially metabolized at early times (less than 1 min) by a 5-phosphatase, with the sequential formation of Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins4P. Afterwards, a small but sustained increase in the content of Ins(1,3,4)P3, Ins(1,3)P2, Ins(3,4)P2 and Ins1P was observed, reflecting the activation of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase.

Abstract
This review assimilates information on the regulation of the metabolism of those inositol phosphates and diacylglycerols that respond to receptor activation. Particular emphasis is placed on the regulation of specific enzymes, the occurrence of isoenzymes, and metabolic compartmentalization; the overall aim is to demonstrate the significance of these activities in relation to the physiological impact of the various cell signalling processes.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase catalyses the phosphorylation of InsP3 to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4). InsP3 3-kinase activity was stimulated by Ca2+ in the presence of calmodulin (CaM) and the protein was associated with two silver-stained bands which migrated with an apparent Mr of approx. 50,000 on SDS/polyacrylamide gels. Upon limited proteolysis with trypsin, the native InsP3 3-kinase was converted into polypeptides of Mr 44,000 and 36,000. Both tryptic fragments displayed InsP3 3-kinase activity that was Ca2+/CaM-sensitive. A cDNA clone, C5, that encodes the C-terminal part of the InsP3 3-kinase, was isolated by immunoscreening of a rat brain cDNA library. The 5' end of this clone was used in turn to probe the same library, yielding a clone (CP16) containing the entire coding sequence of InsP3 3-kinase. The encoding protein of 459 amino acids (calculated Mr 50,868) has several putative phosphorylation sites for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C and CaM-dependent protein kinase II. When clone C5 was expressed in Escherichia coli, the truncated fusion protein showed Ca2+/CaM-sensitive InsP3 3-kinase activity. Our data demonstrate that the N-terminal part of the protein is not essential for either enzymic or CaM-regulatory properties.

Abstract
In rat parotid acinar cells prelabelled with [3H]-inositol, sphingosine stimulated the accumulation of [3H]-inositol polyphosphates. When the cells were exposed to sphingosine, [3H]-inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) was accumulated in a time- and dose-dependent manner. When the extracellular Ca2+ was chelated by 1 mM EGTA, the effect of sphingosine on InsP3 accumulation was completely inhibited. Ionophores, A23187 and ionomycin, had no significant effect on InsP3 accumulation. An inhibitor of protein kinase C, 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), failed to stimulate InsP3 accumulation. In the homogenate of parotid acinar cells, InsP3 3-kinase and 5-phosphomonoesterase activities were not affected by sphingosine. These results suggest that sphingosine activates phosphoinositide turnover by a mechanism dependent upon extracellular Ca2+, but different from that of an ionophore, and independent of protein kinase C.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase catalyses the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of InsP3 to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4). InsP3 3-kinase was purified from rat brain by Blue-Sepharose, phosphocellulose and calmodulin (CaM)-Sepharose affinity chromatography. The purified enzyme was stimulated by Ca2+/CaM by 3-6-fold as compared with the activity measured in the presence of EGTA. Rat brain InsP3 3-kinase activity was associated with two silver-stained bands of about equal activity which migrated with an apparent Mr of 50,000 on SDS/polyacrylamide gels. InsP3 3-kinase activity from rat brain could be immunoprecipitated by an antiserum against the SDS/PAGE-purified 50,000-Mr protein doublet. InsP3 kinase activity from bovine brain and the InsP3 5-phosphatase activity from rat brain were not immunoprecipitated. On Western blot, the human brain crude InsP3 3-kinase reacted specifically, but less strongly than the rat brain enzyme, with the antiserum.

Abstract
The two inositol phosphate-binding proteins, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 (InsP3) and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (InsP4) receptors, and the two particulate InsP3-metabolizing enzymes, InsP3 5-phosphatase and InsP3 3-kinase, were solubilized with detergent from rat cerebellar membranes. These four activities are shown to be distinct molecular species by separation using a variety of protein chromatographic steps. The pharmacology of the partially purified InsP4-binding site indicates that the binding has a high affinity and selectivity for InsP4 over InsP3. These results suggest the existence of a distinct specific InsP4-binding protein which may represent the receptor for this putative second messenger.

Abstract
A complementary DNA (cDNA) clone that encodes inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase was isolated from a rat brain cDNA expression library with the use of monoclonal antibodies. This clone had an open reading frame that would direct the synthesis of a protein consisting of 449 amino acids and with a molecular mass of 49,853 daltons. The putative protein revealed a potential calmodulin-binding site and six regions with amino acid compositions (PEST regions) common to proteins that are susceptible to calpain. Expression of the cDNA in COS cells resulted in an approximately 150-fold increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase activity of these cells.

Abstract
We have investigated the effect of W-7, a calmodulin (CaM) antagonist, on Ca2+ mobilization in a human salivary epithelial cell line, HSG-PA, after muscarinic receptor stimulation. In a medium containing 1.5 mmol/l Ca2+, W-7 reduced both the maximum peak increase in cytosolic Ca2+ [( Ca2+]i) which follows stimulation by carbachol (Cch, 100 mumol/l) and the sustained nature of the response. Using an experimental approach which allows separate visualization of the intracellular Ca2+ release and extracellular Ca2+ entry phases, W-7 was shown preferentially to inhibit Ca2+ release. At 100 mumol/l W-7, Cch-induced Ca2+ release was completely inhibited, but Cch-induced Ca2+ entry was partially (approximately 40%) maintained. This W-7 residual Ca2+ entry response was abolished when cells were depolarized with high K+ or gramicidin D. W-7 also substantially inhibited Cch-induced inositol trisphosphate (IP3) production (approximately 5%). W-5, a less potent CaM antagonist than W-7, had markedly smaller effects on Cch-induced Ca2+ mobilization and IP3 formation. W-7 (100 mumol/l) completely blocked (comparable to 10 mumol/l atropine) the binding of the muscarinic antagonist [3H] quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB) to muscarinic receptors on cell membranes, whereas Cch (at 100 mumol/l) had minimal effects on ligand binding. W-7 and W-5 were equipotent in their ability to inhibit [3H] QNB binding. These results suggest that W-7 reduces Ca2+ mobilization in HSG-PA cells by a mechanism which likely involves the antagonism of a CaM regulatory step(s) but may also involve at least a partial blockade of the muscarinic receptor.

Abstract
Coupling of CNS receptors to phosphoinositide turnover has previously been found to vary with both age and brain region. To determine whether the metabolism of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate also displays such variations, activities of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase and 3'-kinase were measured in developing rat cerebral cortex and adult rat brain regions. The 5'-phosphatase activity was relatively high at birth (approximately 50% of adult values) and increased to adult levels by 2 weeks postnatal. In contrast, the 3'-kinase activity was low at birth and reached approximately 50% of adult levels by 2 weeks postnatal. In the adult rat, activities of the 3'-kinase were comparable in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum, whereas much lower activities were found in hypothalamus and pons/medulla. The 5'-phosphatase activities were similar in cerebral cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and pons/medulla, whereas 5- to 10-fold higher activity was present in the cerebellum. The cerebellum is estimated to contain 50-60% of the total inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase activity present in whole adult rat brain. The localization of the enriched 5'-phosphatase activity within the cerebellum was examined. Application of a histochemical lead-trapping technique for phosphatase indicated a concentration of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase activity in the cerebellar molecular layer. Further support for this conclusion was obtained from studies of Purkinje cell-deficient mutant mice, in which a marked decrement of cerebellar 5'-phosphatase was observed. These results suggest that the metabolic fate of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate depends on both brain region and stage of development.

Abstract
1. The Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM) independent activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase in macrophages could be separated from the dependent activity by serial column chromatography, gel filtration, Orange A and DEAE-5PW. 2. An InsP3 analog which has an aminobenzoyl group on the 2nd carbon of the inositol ring inhibited the conversion of [3H]InsP3 to [3H]InsP4 (inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate) in a dose-dependent manner. The concentration required for half-maximal inhibition (IC50) with the Ca2+/CaM independent enzyme activity was also dependent on the free Ca2+ concentration, as with the dependent activity. 3. These results suggest that a conformational change in the enzyme occurs in response to a change in free Ca2+ concentration, and thus the potency to recognize the InsP3 analog would change, even when the Ca2+/CaM independent enzyme activity was used.

Abstract
The spectrum of inositol phosphate isomers present in avian erythrocytes was investigated in qualitative and quantitative terms. Inositol phosphates were isolated in micromolar quantities from turkey blood by anion-exchange chromatography on Q-Sepharose and subjected to proton n.m.r. and h.p.l.c. analysis. We employed a h.p.l.c. technique with a novel, recently described complexometric post-column detection system, called 'metal-dye detection' [Mayr (1988) Biochem. J. 254, 585-591], which enabled us to identify non-radioactively labelled inositol phosphate isomers and to determine their masses. The results indicate that avian erythrocytes contain the same inositol phosphate isomers as mammalian cells. Denoted by the 'lowest-locant rule' [NC-IUB Recommendations (1988) Biochem. J. 258, 1-2] irrespective of true enantiomerism, these are Ins(1,4)P2, Ins(1,6)P2, Ins(1,3,4)P3, Ins(1,4,5)P3, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, Ins(1,3,4,6)P4, Ins(1,4,5,6)P4, Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, and InsP6. Furthermore, we identified two inositol trisphosphate isomers hitherto not described for mammalian cells, namely Ins(1,5,6)P3 and Ins(2,4,5)P3. The possible position of these two isomers in inositol phosphate metabolism and implications resulting from absolute abundances of inositol phosphates are discussed.

Abstract
A Ca2+ and calmodulin-activated inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate kinase activity was detected in both soluble and membrane fractions from bovine parathyroid glands. Ca2+ activated the soluble enzyme in the concentration range 100 nM to 1 microM, which corresponds to the Ca2+ concentration range observed in the intact cell following maximal variation in extracellular Ca2+, the principal regulator of parathyroid hormone release. The Ca2+ sensitivity of the enzyme was absolutely dependent upon calmodulin. A similar activity was detected in the membranes but could be progressively removed by repeated washing at low ionic strength. This, together with data demonstrating binding of the enzyme to the hydrophobic matrix, Phenyl-Sepharose, suggests that the association of the enzyme with the membrane is likely to involve a significant hydrophobic component. The organic base, amiloride was identified as an inhibitor of the activity, the degree of inhibition being most marked in the presence of Ca2+ and calmodulin (K0.5 approx. 0.1 mM). The Ca2+ concentration dependence of the IP3 kinase suggests that inositol 1,3,4,5 tetrakisphosphate may be a messenger in the signal transduction pathway for the feedback inhibition of PTH secretion by extracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
The effect of Ca2+ and calmodulin (CaM) on the activation of purified bovine brain Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase was quantified and interpreted according to the model of sequential equilibria generally used for other calmodulin-stimulated systems. Two main conclusions can be drawn. (i) CaM.Ca3 and CaM.Ca4 together are the biologically active species in vitro, as is the case for the great majority of other calmodulin targets. (ii) These species bind in a non-co-operative way to the enzyme with an affinity constant of 8.23 x 10(9) M-1, i.e. approx 10-fold higher than for most calmodulin-activated target enzymes. The dose-response curve of the activation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase by calmodulin is not significantly impaired by melittin and trifluoperazine, whereas under very similar assay conditions the half-maximal activation of bovine brain cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase requires over 30-50-fold higher concentrations of CaM when 1 microM melittin or 20 microM-trifluoperazine is present in the assay medium. Similarly, 1 microM of the anti-calmodulin peptides seminalplasmin and gramicidin S, as well as 20 microM of N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalene-sulphonamide (W7), do not inhibit the activation process. These data suggest that binding and activation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase require surface sites of calmodulin which are different from those involved in the binding of most other target enzymes or of model peptides.

Abstract
In the rat mammary tumoral cell line (WRK1 cells), vasopressin was previously described to stimulate a phospholipase C. In this study, we have analysed the effect of vasopressin both on intracellular calcium mobilization and on the accumulation of inositol phosphates. Maximal concentration of vasopressin simultaneously induces an accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and a rise of intracellular calcium concentration. Both these two phenomena are transient and exhibit similar kinetics. A sustained accumulation of InsP2, Ins(1,3,4)P3 and InsP are observed later. Yet no stimulation of InsP4 can be objectified. These results indicate that Ins(1,4,5)P3 is the major inositol phosphate involved in intracellular calcium mobilization.

Abstract
The activity of inositol 2,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol 1:2-cyclic,4,5-trisphosphate relative to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was examined by two assays; firstly, in a binding assay using rat cerebellar membranes, and secondly, in a Ca2+-mobilization assay using permeabilized Swiss 3T3 cells. In both assays the first two phosphates have a potency at least an order of magnitude less than inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. The possible reasons for differences between these results and previous data are discussed, as are the implications for any putative physiological role for the cyclic trisphosphate.

Abstract
A cytosolic fraction derived from rat hepatocytes was used to investigate the regulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] kinase, the enzyme which converts Ins(1,4,5)P3 to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4]. The activity was doubled by raising the free Ca2+ concentration of the assay medium from 0.1 microM to 1.0 microM. A 5 min preincubation of the hepatocytes with 100 microM-dibutyryl cyclic AMP (db.cAMP) plus 100 nM-tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA) resulted in a 40% increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase activity when subsequently assayed at 0.1 microM-Ca2+. This effect was smaller at [Ca2+] greater than 0.5 microM, and absent at 1.0 microM-Ca2+. Similar results were obtained after preincubation with 100 microM-db.cAMP plus 300 nM-vasopressin (20% increase at 0.1 microM-Ca2+; no effect at 1.0 microM-Ca2+). Preincubation with vasopressin, db.cAMP or TPA alone did not alter Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase activity. It is proposed that these results, together with recent evidence implicating Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 in the control of Ca2+ influx, could be relevant to earlier findings that hepatic Ca2+ uptake is synergistically stimulated by cyclic AMP analogues and vasopressin.

Abstract
Measurement of cytoplasmic free calcium, [Ca2+]i, in single human endothelial cells has shown that low doses of the inflammatory mediator histamine evoke asynchronous repetitive spikes in [Ca2+]i whereas high doses cause a maintained elevated [Ca2+]i. We discuss possible regulatory mechanisms, and the potential physiological and pathological implications of such a frequency-modulated [Ca2+]i signalling system.

Abstract
Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphates (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4), 32P-labelled in positions 4 and 5 were prepared enzymatically, using [4-32P]-phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdInsP) and [5-32P]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) as substrates, respectively. Degradation studies of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, using an enriched phosphatase preparation from porcine brain cytosol, led to the formation of two inositol trisphosphate isomers which were identified as inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3). This novel degradation pathway of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 to Ins(1,4,5)P3 provides an additional source for the generation of Ins(1,4,5)P3, involving a 3-phosphatase.

Abstract
Several lines of experimental evidence indicate the involvement of a guanine nucleotide-dependent protein (G-protein) in the hormone-stimulated hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol(4,5)-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). However, the shortcomings of available procedures for cell-free assay of hormone-stimulated phosphoinositidase C (PIC) have limited our current understanding of the molecular and mechanistic details of PIC regulation. We recently have proposed that turkey erythrocyte membranes may provide a valuable model system for studies of G-protein-dependent PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis. The membranes can be simply prepared from [3H]inositol-labelled erythrocytes and they contain a PIC activity that hydrolyses endogenous phosphoinositides and is exquisitively sensitive to guanine nucleotides. PtdIns(4,5)P2 is the principal substrate for this enzyme, there being relatively little direct hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and no detectable hydrolysis of PtdIns. The membranes also contain a purinoceptor of the P2y subclass that is efficiently coupled to PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis both in intact cells and in the isolated membranes. 2-Methylthioadenosine trisphosphate (2-methyl-S-ATP), a specific P2y receptor agonist, has no effect upon PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis in the absence of guanine nucleotides, but greatly enhances both the potency and efficacy of PIC activation by guanine nucleotides such as GTP gamma S. GTP gamma S alone stimulates PIC activity only after a prolonged time-lag; the effect of increasing doses of 2-methyl-S-ATP is progressively to shorten this lag phase. These results suggest that the mechanism of G-protein activation involves acceleration of a nucleotide exchange reaction as has been demonstrated for the activation of adenylate cyclase in the same membrane preparation. As well as contributing valuable information on the substrate specificity of PIC and its mode of regulation by hormones, turkey erythrocytes provide a plentiful source of plasma membranes and may be useful for purification of the appropriate G-protein and PIC activities.

Abstract
After the initial discovery of receptor-linked generation of inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) it was generally assumed that Ins(1,4,5)P3 and its proposed breakdown products inositol(1,4)bisphosphate (Ins(1,4)P2) and Ins1P, along with cyclic inositol monophosphate, were the only inositol phosphates found in significant amounts in animal cells. Since then, three levels of complexity have been introduced. Firstly, Ins(1,4,5)P3 can be phosphorylated to Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, and the subsequent metabolism of these two compounds has been found to be intricate and probably different between various tissues. The functions of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 are almost certainly to regulate cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations, but the reasons for the labyrinth of the metabolic pathways after their deactivation by a specific 5-phosphatase remain obscure. Secondly, inositol pentakis- and hexakisphosphates have been found in many animal cells other than avian erythrocytes. It has been shown that their synthesis pathway is entirely separate from the inositol phosphates discussed above, both in terms of many of the isomers involved and probably in the subcellular localization; some possible functions of InsP5 and InsP6 are discussed here. Thirdly, cyclic inositol polyphosphates have been reported in stimulated tissues; the evidence for their occurrence in vivo and their possible physiological significance are also discussed.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins P3) 3-kinase catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of Ins P3 to Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins P4). Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-sensitivity of Ins P3 3-kinase was measured in the crude soluble fraction from rat brain and different anatomic regions of bovine brain. Kinase activity was inhibited in the presence of EGTA (free Ca2+ below 1 nM) as compared to Ca2+ (10 microM free Ca2+) or Ca2+ (10 microM free Ca2+) and CaM (1 microM). Ca2+-sensitivity was also seen for the cAMP phosphodiesterase measured under the same assay conditions, but was not for the Ins P3 5-phosphatase. DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the soluble fraction of rat brain or bovine cerebellum resolved a Ca2+/CaM-sensitive Ins P3 3-kinase (maximal stimulation at 1 microM Ins P3 substrate level was 2.0-3.0 fold).

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] of turkey erythrocytes were labelled by using either [32P]Pi or [3H]inositol. Although there was little basal release of inositol phosphates from membranes purified from labelled cells, in the presence of guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) the rate of accumulation of inositol bis-, tris- and tetrakis-phosphate (InsP2, InsP3 and InsP4) was increased 20-50-fold. The enhanced rate of accumulation of 3H-labelled inositol phosphates was linear for up to 20 min; owing to decreases in 32P specific radioactivity of phosphoinositides during incubation of membranes with unlabelled ATP, the accumulation of 32P-labelled inositol phosphates was linear for only 5 min. In the absence of ATP and a nucleotide-regenerating system, no InsP4 was formed, and the overall inositol phosphate response to GTP[S] was decreased. Analyses of phosphoinositides during incubation with ATP indicated that interconversions of PtdIns to PtdIns4P and PtdIns4P to PtdIns(4,5)P2 occurred to maintain PtdIns(4,5)P2 concentrations; GTP[S]-induced inositol phosphate formation was accompanied by a corresponding decrease in 32P- and 3H-labelled PtdIns, PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2. In the absence of ATP, only GTP[S]-induced decreases in PtdIns(4,5)P2 occurred. Since inositol monophosphate was not formed under any condition, PtdIns is not a substrate for the phospholipase C. The production of InsP2 was decreased markedly, but not blocked, under conditions where Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphomonoesterase activity in the preparation was inhibited. Thus the predominant substrate of the GTP[S]-activated phospholipase C of turkey erythrocyte membranes is PtdIns(4,5)P2. Ins(1,4,5)P3 was the major product of this reaction; only a small amount of Ins(1:2-cyclic, 4,5)P3 was released. The effects of ATP on inositol phosphate formation apparently involve the contributions of two phenomena. First, the P2-receptor agonist 2-methylthioadenosine triphosphate (2MeSATP) greatly increased inositol phosphate formation and decreased [3H]PtdIns4P and [3H]PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the presence of a low (0.1 microM) concentration of GTP[S]. ATP over the concentration range 0-100 microM produced effects in the presence of 0.1 microM-GTP[S] essentially identical with those observed with 2MeSATP, suggesting that the effects of low concentrations of ATP are also explained by a stimulation of P2-receptors. Higher concentrations of ATP also increase inositol phosphate formation, apparently by supporting the synthesis of substrate phospholipids.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
An enzyme which catalyses the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] was purified approx. 180-fold from rat brain cytosol by (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, chromatography through hydroxyapatite, anion-exchange fast protein liquid chromatography and gel-filtration chromatography. Gel filtration on Sepharose 4B CL gives an Mr of 200 x 10(3) for the native enzyme. The inositol tetrakisphosphate (InsP4) produced by the enzyme has the chromatographic, chemical and metabolic properties of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase displays simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics for both its substrates, having Km values of 460 microM and 0.44 microM for ATP and Ins(1,4,5)P3 respectively. When many of the inositol phosphates known to occur in cells were tested, only Ins(1,4,5)P3 was a substrate for the enzyme; the 2,4,5-trisphosphate was not phosphorylated. Inositol 4,5-bisphosphate and glycerophosphoinositol 4,5-bisphosphate were phosphorylated much more slowly than Ins(1,4,5)P3. CTP, GTP and adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate were unable to substitute for ATP. When assayed under conditions of first-order kinetics, Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase activity decreased by about 40% as the [Ca2+] was increased over the physiologically relevant range. This effect was insensitive to the presence of calmodulin and appeared to be the result of an increase in the Km of the enzyme for Ins(1,4,5)P3. Preincubation with ATP and the purified catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase did not affect the rate of phosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 when the enzyme was assayed at saturating concentrations of Ins(1,4,5)P3 or at concentrations close to its Km for this substrate.
