Abstract
Within eukaryotic cells, biochemical reactions need to be organized on the surface of membrane compartments that use distinct lipid constituents to dynamically modulate the functions of integral proteins or influence the selective recruitment of peripheral membrane effectors. As a result of these complex interactions, a variety of human pathologies can be traced back to improper communication between proteins and membrane surfaces; either due to mutations that directly alter protein structure or as a result of changes in membrane lipid composition. Among the known structural lipids found in cellular membranes, phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) is unique in that it also serves as the membrane-anchored precursor of low-abundance regulatory lipids, the polyphosphoinositides (PPIn), which have restricted distributions within specific subcellular compartments. The ability of PPIn lipids to function as signaling platforms relies on both non-specific electrostatic interactions and the selective stereospecific recognition of PPIn headgroups by specialized protein folds. In this chapter, we will attempt to summarize the structural diversity of modular PPIn-interacting domains that facilitate the reversible recruitment and conformational regulation of peripheral membrane proteins. Outside of protein folds capable of capturing PPIn headgroups at the membrane interface, recent studies detailing the selective binding and bilayer extraction of PPIn species by unique functional domains within specific families of lipid-transfer proteins will also be highlighted. Overall, this overview will help to outline the fundamental physiochemical mechanisms that facilitate localized interactions between PPIn lipids and the wide-variety of PPIn-binding proteins that are essential for the coordinate regulation of cellular metabolism and membrane dynamics.

Abstract
PH domains mediate interactions involved in cell signaling, intracellular membrane transport regulation and cytoskeleton organization. Some PH domains bind phosphoinositides with different affinity and specificity. The two novel PLCη (1 and 2) possess an N-terminal PH domain (PHη1 and PHη2 respectively) that has been implicated in membrane association and induction of PLC activity. Understanding of the structure and dynamics is crucial for future modulation of lipid-protein interactions in PHη1, PHη2 and other PH domains. Therefore, the three-dimensional structure of PHη1 and PHη2 was modeled using ITASSER and phosphoinositides (IP3 and IP4) were docked in the inferred binding site using HADDOCK server. Molecular Dynamics simulations of unliganded and phosphoinositide bound PHη1 and PHη2 were performed using AMBER14 to study the mechanism of interaction, and conformational dynamics in response to phosphoinositide binding. The binding affinity was predicted using Kdeep server. The models of PHη1 and PHη2 had a conserved structural core consisting of seven β-strands and a C-terminal α-helix as seen in other PH domains. Sequence/structure analysis showed that phosphoinositide ligands bind PHη1 and PHη2 at the canonical binding site. Phosphoinositide binding induced movement of positively charged side chains towards the ligand, changes in the secondary structure especially at the β5-β6 loop and allosteric changes at the interface of β1-β2 and β5-β6 loops. Dynamics studies showed that the size of the binding site and differential affinity for IP3/IP4 binding is coordinated by the number, length, flexibility, secondary structure and allosteric interactions of the loops surrounding the phosphoinositide binding site.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositolphosphates (PIPs) are phospholipids that contain a phosphorylated inositol head group. PIPs represent a minor fraction of total phospholipids, but are involved in many regulatory processes, such as cell signalling and intracellular trafficking. Membrane compartments are enriched or depleted in specific PIPs, providing a unique composition for these compartments and contributing to their identity. The precise subcellular localization and dynamics of most PIP species is not fully understood in plants. Here, we designed genetically encoded biosensors with distinct relative affinities and expressed them stably in Arabidopsis thaliana. Analysis of this multi-affinity 'PIPline' marker set revealed previously unrecognized localization of various PIPs in root epidermis. Notably, we found that PI(4,5)P2 is able to localize PIP2 -interacting protein domains to the plasma membrane in non-stressed root epidermal cells. Our analysis further revealed that there is a gradient of PI4P, with the highest concentration at the plasma membrane, intermediate concentration in post-Golgi/endosomal compartments, and the lowest concentration in the Golgi. Finally, we also found a similar gradient of PI3P from high in late endosomes to low in the tonoplast. Our library extends the range of available PIP biosensors, and will allow rapid progress in our understanding of PIP dynamics in plants.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus is a sorting platform that exchanges extensively with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), endosomes (Es) and plasma membrane (PM) compartments. The last compartment of the Golgi, the trans-Golgi Network (TGN) is a large complex of highly deformed membranes from which vesicles depart to their targeted organelles but also are harbored from retrograde pathways. The phosphoinositide (PI) composition of the TGN is marked by an important contingent of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P). Although this PI is present throughout the Golgi, its proportion grows along the successive cisternae and peaks at the TGN. The levels of this phospholipid are controlled by a set of kinases and phosphatases that regulate its concentrations in the Golgi and maintain a dynamic gradient that determines the cellular localization of several interacting proteins. Though not exclusive to the Golgi, the synthesis of PtdIns(4)P in other membranes is relatively marginal and has unclear consequences. The significance of PtdIns(4)P within the TGN has been demonstrated for numerous cellular events such as vesicle formation, lipid metabolism, and membrane trafficking.

Abstract
Interdisciplinary research focused on biological membranes has revealed them as signaling and trafficking platforms for processes fundamental to life. Biomembranes harbor receptors, ion channels, lipid domains, lipid signals, and scaffolding complexes, which function to maintain cellular growth, metabolism, and homeostasis. Moreover, abnormalities in lipid metabolism attributed to genetic changes among other causes are often associated with diseases such as cancer, arthritis and diabetes. Thus, there is a need to comprehensively understand molecular events occurring within and on membranes as a means of grasping disease etiology and identifying viable targets for drug development. A rapidly expanding field in the last decade has centered on understanding membrane recruitment of peripheral proteins. This class of proteins reversibly interacts with specific lipids in a spatial and temporal fashion in crucial biological processes. Typically, recruitment of peripheral proteins to the different cellular sites is mediated by one or more modular lipid-binding domains through specific lipid recognition. Structural, computational, and experimental studies of these lipid-binding domains have demonstrated how they specifically recognize their cognate lipids and achieve subcellular localization. However, the mechanisms by which these modular domains and their host proteins are recruited to and interact with various cell membranes often vary drastically due to differences in lipid affinity, specificity, penetration as well as protein-protein and intramolecular interactions. As there is still a paucity of predictive data for peripheral protein function, these enzymes are often rigorously studied to characterize their lipid-dependent properties. This review summarizes recent progress in our understanding of how peripheral proteins are recruited to biomembranes and highlights avenues to exploit in drug development targeted at cellular membranes and/or lipid-binding proteins.

Abstract
The general receptor for phosphoinositides isoform 1 (GRP1) is recruited to the plasma membrane in response to activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinases and accumulation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)]. GRP1's pleckstrin homology (PH) domain recognizes PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) with high specificity and affinity, however, the precise mechanism of its association with membranes remains unclear. Here, we detail the molecular basis of membrane anchoring by the GRP1 PH domain. Our data reveal a multivalent membrane docking involving PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) binding, regulated by pH and facilitated by electrostatic interactions with other anionic lipids. The specific recognition of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) triggers insertion of the GRP1 PH domain into membranes. An acidic environment enhances PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) binding and increases membrane penetration as demonstrated by NMR and monolayer surface tension and surface plasmon resonance experiments. The GRP1 PH domain displays a 28 nM affinity for POPC/1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine/PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) vesicles at pH 6.0, but binds 22-fold weaker at pH 8.0. The pH sensitivity is attributed in part to the His355 residue, protonation of which is required for the robust interaction with PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) and significant membrane penetration, as illustrated by mutagenesis data. The binding affinity of the GRP1 PH domain for PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)-containing vesicles is further amplified (by approximately 6-fold) by nonspecific electrostatic interactions with phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylinositol. Together, our results provide new insight into the multivalent mechanism of the membrane targeting and regulation of the GRP1 PH domain.

Abstract
The mechanism of interaction of pleckstrin homology (PH) domains with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP 2)-containing lipid bilayers remains uncertain. While crystallographic studies have emphasized PH-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP 3) interactions, biophysical studies indicate a degree of less specific protein-bilayer interactions. We have used molecular dynamics simulations to characterize the interactions of the PH domain from phospholipase C-delta1 with IP 3 and with PIP 2, the latter in lipid bilayers and in detergent micelles. Simulations of the PH domain in water reveal a reduction in protein flexibility when IP 3 is bound. Simulations of the PH domain bound to PIP 2 in lipid bilayers indicate a tightening of ligand-protein interactions relative to the PH-IP 3 complex, alongside formation of H-bonds between PH side chains and lipid (PC) headgroups, and a degree of penetration of hydrophobic side chains into the core of the bilayer. Comparison with simulations of the PH-bound domain to a PC bilayer in the absence of PIP 2 suggests that the presence of PIP 2 increases the extent of PH-membrane interactions. Thus, comparative molecular dynamics simulations reveal how a PI-binding domain undergoes changes in conformational dynamics on binding to a PIP 2-containing membrane and how interactions additional to those with the PI headgroup are formed.

Abstract
Many signaling and trafficking proteins contain modular domains that bind reversibly to cellular membranes. The structural basis of the intermolecular interactions which mediate these membrane-targeting events remains elusive since protein-membrane complexes are not directly accessible to standard structural biology techniques. Here we report a fast protein-micelle docking methodology that yields three-dimensional model structures of proteins inserted into micelles, revealing energetically favorable orientations, convergent insertion angles, and an array of protein-lipid interactions at atomic resolution. The method is applied to two peripheral membrane proteins, the early endosome antigen 1 (EEA1) FYVE (a zinc finger domain found in the proteins Fab1, YOTB/ZK632.12, Vac1, and EEA1) and Vam7p phagocyte oxidase homology domains, which are revealed to form extensive networks of interactions with multiple phospholipid headgroups and acyl chains. The resulting structural models explain extensive published mutagenesis data and reveal novel binding determinants. The docking restraints used here were based on NMR data, but can be derived from any technique that detects insertion of protein residues into a membrane, and can be applied to virtually any peripheral membrane protein or membrane-like structure.

Abstract
The 3D structures or dynamic feature of fully hydrated membrane proteins are very important at ambient temperature, in relation to understanding their biological activities, although their data, especially from the flexible portions such as surface regions, are unavailable from X-ray diffraction or cryoelectron microscope at low temperature. In contrast, high-resolution solid-state NMR spectroscopy has proved to be a very convenient alternative means to be able to reveal their dynamic structures. To clarify this problem, we describe here how we are able to reveal such structures and dynamic features, based on intrinsic probes from high-resolution solid-state NMR studies on bacteriorhodopsin (bR) as a typical membrane protein in 2D crystal, regenerated preparation in lipid bilayer and detergents. It turned out that their dynamic features are substantially altered upon their environments where bR is present. We further review NMR applications to study structure and dynamics of a variety of membrane proteins, including sensory rhodopsin, rhodopsin, photoreaction centers, diacylglycerol kinases, etc.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P2) and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) are lipid second messengers that regulate various cellular processes by recruiting a wide range of downstream effector proteins to membranes. Several pleckstrin homology (PH) domains have been reported to interact with PtdIns(3,4)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. To understand how these PH domains differentially respond to PtdIns(3,4)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 signals, we quantitatively determined the PtdIns(3,4)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 binding properties of several PH domains, including Akt, ARNO, Btk, DAPP1, Grp1, and C-terminal TAPP1 PH domains by surface plasmon resonance and monolayer penetration analyses. The measurements revealed that these PH domains have significant different phosphoinositide specificities and affinities. Btk-PH and TAPP1-PH showed genuine PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(3,4)P2 specificities, respectively, whereas other PH domains exhibited less pronounced specificities. Also, the PH domains showed different degrees of membrane penetration, which greatly affected the kinetics of their membrane dissociation. Mutational studies showed that the presence of two proximal hydrophobic residues on the membrane-binding surface of the PH domain is important for membrane penetration and sustained membrane residence. When NIH 3T3 cells were stimulated with platelet-derived growth factor to generate PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, reversible translocation of Btk-PH, Grp1-PH, ARNO-PH, DAPP1-PH, and its L177A mutant to the plasma membrane was consistent with their in vitro membrane binding properties. Collectively, these studies provide new insight into how various PH domains would differentially respond to cellular PtdIns(3,4)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 signals.

Abstract
Signaling proteins are usually composed of one or more conserved structural domains. These domains are usually regulatory in nature by binding to specific activators or effectors, or species that regulate cellular location, etc. Inositol-specific mammalian phospholipase C (PLC) enzymes are multidomain proteins whose activities are controlled by regulators, such as G proteins, as well as membrane interactions. One of these domains has been found to bind membranes, regulators, and activate the catalytic region. The recently solved structure of a major region of PLC-beta2 together with the structure of PLC-delta1 and a wealth of biochemical studies poises the system towards an understanding of the mechanism through which their regulations occurs.

Abstract
Signal transduction via G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is a fundamental pathway through which the functions of an individual cell can be integrated within the demands of a multicellular organism. Since this family of receptors first discovered, the proteins that constitute this signaling cascade and their interactions with one another have been studied intensely. In parallel, the pivotal role of lipids in the correct and efficient propagation of extracellular signals has attracted ever increasing attention. This is not surprising given that most of the signal transduction machinery is membrane-associated and therefore lipid-related. Hence, lipid-protein interactions exert a considerable influence on the activity of these proteins. This review focuses on the post-translational lipid modifications of GPCRs and G proteins (palmitoylation, myristoylation, and isoprenylation) and their significance for membrane binding, trafficking and signaling. Moreover, we address how the particular biophysical properties of different membrane structures may regulate the localization of these proteins and the potential functional consequences of this phenomenon in signal transduction. Finally, the interactions that occur between membrane lipids and GPCR effector enzymes such as PLC and PKC are also considered.

Abstract
PH (pleckstrin homology) domains represent the 11th most common domain in the human proteome. They are best known for their ability to bind phosphoinositides with high affinity and specificity, although it is now clear that less than 10% of all PH domains share this property. Cases in which PH domains bind specific phosphoinositides with high affinity are restricted to those phosphoinositides that have a pair of adjacent phosphates in their inositol headgroup. Those that do not [PtdIns3P, PtdIns5P and PtdIns(3,5)P2] are instead recognized by distinct classes of domains including FYVE domains, PX (phox homology) domains, PHD (plant homeodomain) fingers and the recently identified PROPPINs (b-propellers that bind polyphosphoinositides). Of the 90% of PH domains that do not bind strongly and specifically to phosphoinositides, few are well understood. One group of PH domains appears to bind both phosphoinositides (with little specificity) and Arf (ADP-ribosylation factor) family small G-proteins, and are targeted to the Golgi apparatus where both phosphoinositides and the relevant Arfs are both present. Here, the PH domains may function as coincidence detectors. A central challenge in understanding the majority of PH domains is to establish whether the very low affinity phosphoinositide binding reported in many cases has any functional relevance. For PH domains from dynamin and from Dbl family proteins, this weak binding does appear to be functionally important, although its precise mechanistic role is unclear. In many other cases, it is quite likely that alternative binding partners are more relevant, and that the observed PH domain homology represents conservation of structural fold rather than function.

Abstract
The membrane binding affinity of the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of phospholipase C (PLC)-delta1 was investigated using a vesicle coprecipitation assay and the structure of the membrane-associated PH domain was probed using solid-state (13)C NMR spectroscopy. Twenty per cent phosphatidylserine (PS) in the membrane caused a moderate but significant reduction of the membrane binding affinity of the PH domain despite the predicted electrostatic attraction between the PH domain and the head groups of PS. Solid-state NMR spectra of the PH domain bound to the phosphatidylcholine (PC)/PS/phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) (75 : 20 : 5) vesicle indicated loss of the interaction between the amphipathic alpha2-helix of the PH domain and the interface region of the membrane which was previously reported for the PH domain bound to PC/PIP(2) (95 : 5) vesicles. Characteristic local conformations in the vicinity of Ala88 and Ala112 induced by the hydrophobic interaction between the alpha2-helix and the membrane interface were lost in the structure of the PH domain at the surface of the PC/PS/PIP(2) vesicle, and consequently the structure becomes identical to the solution structure of the PH domain bound to d-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. These local structural changes reduce the membrane binding affinity of the PH domain. The effects of PS on the PH domain were reversed by NaCl and MgCl(2), suggesting that the effects are caused by electrostatic interaction between the protein and PS. These results generally suggest that the structure and function relationships among PLCs and other peripheral membrane proteins that have similar PH domains would be affected by the local lipid composition of membranes.

Abstract
Phospholipase Cbeta (PLCbeta) enzymes are activated by Galpha q and Gbetagamma subunits and catalyze the hydrolysis of the minor membrane lipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2]. Activation of PLCbeta2 by Gbetagamma subunits has been shown to be conferred through its N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, although the underlying mechanism is unclear. Also unclear are observations that the extent of Gbetagamma activation differs on different membrane surfaces. In this study, we have identified a unique region of the PH domain of the PLCbeta2 domain (residues 71-88) which, when added to the enzyme as a peptide, causes enzyme activation similar to that with Gbetagamma subunits. This PH domain segment interacts strongly with membranes composed of lipid mixtures but not those containing lipids with electrically neutral zwitterionic headgroups. Also, addition of this segment perturbs interaction of the catalytic domain, but not the PH domain, with membrane surfaces. We monitored the orientation of the PH and catalytic domains of PLC by intermolecular fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) using the Gbetagamma activatable mutant, PLCbeta2/delta1(C193S). We find an increase in the level of FRET with binding to membranes with mixed lipids but not to those containing only lipids with electrically neutral headgroups. These results suggest that enzymatic activation can be conferred through optimal association of the PHbeta71-88 region to specific membrane surfaces. These studies allow us to understand the basis of variations of Gbetagamma activation on different membrane surfaces.

Abstract
PH-PLCdelta1 [the PH domain (pleckstrin homology domain) of PLCdelta1 (phospholipase C-delta1)] is among the best-characterized phosphoinositide-binding domains. PH-PLCdelta1 binds with high specificity to the headgroup of PtdIns(4,5)P2, but little is known about its interfacial properties. In the present study, we show that PH-PLCdelta1 is also membrane-active and can insert significantly into PtdIns(4,5)P2-containing monolayers at physiological (bilayer-equivalent) surface pressures. However, this membrane activity appears to involve interactions distinct from those that target PH-PLCdelta1 to the PtdIns(4,5)P2 headgroup. Whereas the majority of PtdIns(4,5)P2-bound PH-PLCdelta1 can be displaced by adding excess of soluble headgroup [Ins(1,4,5)P3], membrane activity of PH-PLCdelta1 cannot. PH-PLCdelta1 differs from other phosphoinositide-binding domains in that its membrane insertion does not require that the phosphoinositide-binding site be occupied. Significant monolayer insertion remains when the phosphoinositide-binding site is mutated, and PH-PLCdelta1 can insert into monolayers that contain no PtdIns(4,5)P2 at all. Our results suggest a model in which reversible membrane binding of PH-PLCdelta1, mediated by PtdIns(4,5)P2 or other acidic phospholipids, occurs without membrane insertion. Accumulation of the PH domain at the membrane surface enhances the efficiency of insertion, but does not significantly affect its extent, whereas the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine and cholesterol in the lipid mixture promotes the extent of insertion. This is the first report of membrane activity in an isolated PH domain and has implications for understanding the membrane targeting by this common type of domain.

Abstract
Despite the central importance of peripheral membrane proteins to cellular signaling and metabolic pathways, the structures of protein-membrane interfaces remain largely inaccessible to high-resolution structural methods. In recent years a number of laboratories have contributed to the development of an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) power saturation approach that utilizes site-directed spin labeling to determine the key geometric parameters of membrane-docked proteins, including their penetration depths and angular orientations relative to the membrane surface. Representative applications to Ca(2+)-activated, membrane-docking C2 domains are described.

Abstract
Research in the past decade has revealed that many cytosolic proteins are recruited to different cellular membranes to form protein-protein and lipid-protein interactions during cell signaling and membrane trafficking. Membrane recruitment of these peripheral proteins is mediated by a growing number of modular membrane-targeting domains, including C1, C2, PH, FYVE, PX, ENTH, ANTH, BAR, FERM, and tubby domains, that recognize specific lipid molecules in the membranes. Structural studies of these membrane-targeting domains demonstrate how they specifically recognize their cognate lipid ligands. However, the mechanisms by which these domains and their host proteins are recruited to and interact with various cell membranes are only beginning to unravel with recent computational studies, in vitro membrane binding studies using model membranes, and cellular translocation studies using fluorescent protein-tagged proteins. This review summarizes the recent progress in our understanding of how the kinetics and energetics of membrane-protein interactions are regulated during the cellular membrane targeting and activation of peripheral proteins.

Abstract
Inflammation contributes to insulin resistance in diabetes and obesity. Mouse Pelle-like kinase (mPLK, homolog of human IL-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK)) participates in inflammatory signaling. We evaluated IRS-1 as a novel substrate for mPLK that may contribute to linking inflammation with insulin resistance. Wild-type mPLK, but not a kinase-inactive mutant (mPLK-KD), directly phosphorylated full-length IRS-1 in vitro. This in vitro phosphorylation was increased when mPLK was immunoprecipitated from tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-treated cells. In NIH-3T3(IR) cells, wild-type mPLK (but not mPLK-KD) co-immunoprecipitated with IRS-1. This association was increased by treatment of cells with TNF-alpha. Using mass spectrometry, we identified Ser(24) in the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of IRS-1 as a specific phosphorylation site for mPLK. IRS-1 mutants S24D or S24E (mimicking phosphorylation at Ser(24)) had impaired ability to associate with insulin receptors resulting in diminished tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and impaired ability of IRS-1 to bind and activate PI-3 kinase in response to insulin. IRS-1-S24D also had an impaired ability to mediate insulin-stimulated translocation of GLUT4 in rat adipose cells. Importantly, endogenous mPLK/IRAK was activated in response to TNF-alpha or interleukin 1 treatment of primary adipose cells. In addition, using a phospho-specific antibody against IRS-1 phosphorylated at Ser(24), we found that interleukin-1 or TNF-alpha treatment of Fao cells stimulated increased phosphorylation of endogenous IRS-1 at Ser(24). We conclude that IRS-1 is a novel physiological substrate for mPLK. TNF-alpha-regulated phosphorylation at Ser(24) in the pleckstrin homology domain of IRS-1 by mPLK/IRAK represents an additional mechanism for cross-talk between inflammatory signaling and insulin signaling that may contribute to metabolic insulin resistance.

Abstract
Mitochondrial Ca2+ (mCa2+) handling is an important regulator of liver cell function that controls events ranging from cellular respiration and signal transduction to apoptosis. Cytosolic Ca2+ enters mitochondria through the ruthenium red-sensitive mCa2+ uniporter, but the mechanisms governing uniporter activity are unknown. Activation of many Ca2+ channels in the cell membrane requires PLC. This activation commonly occurs through phosphitidylinositol-4,5-biphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and the production of the second messengers inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [I(1,4,5)P3] and 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG). PIP2 was recently identified in mitochondria. We hypothesized that PLC exists in liver mitochondria and regulates mCa2+ uptake through the uniporter. Western blot analysis with anti-PLC antibodies demonstrated the presence of PLC-delta1 in pure preparations of mitochondrial membranes isolated from rat liver. In addition, the selective PLC inhibitor U-73122 dose-dependently blocked mCa2+ uptake when whole mitochondria were incubated at 37 degrees C with 45Ca2+. Increasing extra mCa2+ concentration significantly stimulated mCa2+ uptake, and U-73122 inhibited this effect. Spermine, a uniporter agonist, significantly increased mCa2+ uptake, whereas U-73122 dose-dependently blocked this effect. The inactive analog of U-73122, U-73343, did not affect mCa2+ uptake in any experimental condition. Membrane-permeable I(1,4,5)P3 receptor antagonists 2-aminoethoxydiphenylborate and xestospongin C also inhibited mCa2+ uptake. Although extra mitochondrial I(1,4,5)P3 had no effect on mCa2+ uptake, membrane-permeable DAG analogs 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol and DAG-lactone, which inhibit PLC activity, dose-dependently inhibited mCa2+ uptake. These data indicate that PLC-delta1 exists in liver mitochondria and is involved in regulating mCa2+ uptake through the uniporter.
