Abstract
Inositol polyphosphates (InsPs) play key signaling roles in diverse cellular functions, including calcium homeostasis, cell survival and death. Multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase 1 (Minpp1) affects the cellular levels of InsPs and cell functions. The Minpp1 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident but localizes away from its cytosolic InsPs substrates. The current study examines the heterogeneity of Minpp1 and the potential physiologic impact of Minpp1 isoforms, distinct motifs, subcellular distribution, and enzymatic potential. The NCBI database was used to analyze the proteome diversity of Minpp1 using bioinformatics tools. The analysis revealed that translation of three different Minpp1 variants resulted in three isoforms of Minpp1 of varying molecular weights. A link between the minpp1 variant-2 gene and ER-stress, using real-time PCR, suggests a functional similarity between minpp1 variant-1 and variant-2. A detailed study on motifs revealed Minpp1 isoform-2 is the only other isoform, besides isoform-1, that carries a phosphatase motif for InsPs hydrolysis but no ER-retention signal. The confocal microscopy revealed that the Minpp1 isoform-1 predominantly localized near the nucleus with a GRP-78 ER marker, while Minpp1 isoform-2 was scattered more towards the cell periphery where it co-localizes with the plasma membrane-destined multivesicular bodies biomarker CD63. MCF-7 cells were used to establish that Minpp1 isoform-2 is secreted into exosomes. Brefeldin A treatment resulted in overexpression of the exosome-associated Minpp1 isoform-2, suggesting its secretion via an unconventional route involving endocytic-generated vesicles and a link to ER stress. Results further demonstrated that the exosome-associated Minpp1 isoform-2 was enzymatically active. Overall, the data support the possibility that an extracellular form of enzymatically active Minpp1 isoform-2 mitigates any anti-proliferative actions of extracellular InsPs, thereby also impacting the makeup of the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase (Mipp), a highly conserved but poorly understood histidine phosphatase, dephosphorylates higher-order IPs (IP4-IP6) to IP3. To gain insight into the biological roles of these enzymes, we have characterized Drosophila mipp1. mipp1 is dynamically expressed in the embryonic trachea, specifically in the leading cells of migrating branches at late stages, where Mipp1 localizes to the plasma membrane and filopodia. FGF signaling activates mipp1 expression in these cells, where extensive filopodia form to drive migration and elongation by cell intercalation. We show that Mipp1 facilitates formation and/or stabilization of filopodia in leading cells through its extracellular activity. mipp1 loss decreases filopodia number, whereas mipp1 overexpression increases filopodia number in a phosphatase-activity-dependent manner. Importantly, expression of Mipp1 gives cells a migratory advantage for the lead position in elongating tracheal branches. Altogether, these findings suggest that extracellular pools of inositol polyphosphates affect cell behavior during development.

Abstract
The Rapoport-Luebering glycolytic bypass comprises evolutionarily conserved reactions that generate and dephosphorylate 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG). For >30 years, these reactions have been considered the responsibility of a single enzyme, the 2,3-BPG synthase/2-phosphatase (BPGM). Here, we show that Dictyostelium, birds, and mammals contain an additional 2,3-BPG phosphatase that, unlike BPGM, removes the 3-phosphate. This discovery reveals that the glycolytic pathway can bypass the formation of 3-phosphoglycerate, which is a precursor for serine biosynthesis and an activator of AMP-activated protein kinase. Our 2,3-BPG phosphatase activity is encoded by the previously identified gene for multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase (MIPP1), which we now show to have dual substrate specificity. By genetically manipulating Mipp1 expression in Dictyostelium, we demonstrated that this enzyme provides physiologically relevant regulation of cellular 2,3-BPG content. Mammalian erythrocytes possess the highest content of 2,3-BPG, which controls oxygen binding to hemoglobin. We determined that total MIPP1 activity in erythrocytes at 37 degrees C is 0.6 mmol 2,3-BPG hydrolyzed per liter of cells per h, matching previously published estimates of the phosphatase activity of BPGM. MIPP1 is active at 4 degrees C, revealing a clinically significant contribution to 2,3-BPG loss during the storage of erythrocytes for transfusion. Hydrolysis of 2,3-BPG by human MIPP1 is sensitive to physiologic alkalosis; activity decreases 50% when pH rises from 7.0 to 7.4. This phenomenon provides a homeostatic mechanism for elevating 2,3-BPG levels, thereby enhancing oxygen release to tissues. Our data indicate greater biological significance of the Rapoport-Luebering shunt than previously considered.

Abstract
Myotubularins constitute a ubiquitous family of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-phosphatases implicated in several neuromuscular disorders. Myotubularin [myotubular myopathy 1 (MTM1)] PI 3-phosphatase is shown associated with early and late endosomes. Loss of endosomal phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P] upon overexpression of wild-type MTM1, but not a phosphatase-dead MTM1C375S mutant, resulted in altered early and late endosomal PI(3)P levels and rapid depletion of early endosome antigen-1. Membrane-bound MTM1 was directly complexed to the hVPS15/hVPS34 [vacuolar protein sorting (VPS)] PI 3-kinase complex with binding mediated by the WD40 domain of the hVPS15 (p150) adapter protein and independent of a GRAM-domain point mutation that blocks PI(3,5)P(2) binding. The WD40 domain of hVPS15 also constitutes the binding site for Rab7 and, as shown previously, contributes to Rab5 binding. In vivo, the hVPS15/hVPS34 PI 3-kinase complex forms mutually exclusive complexes with the Rab GTPases (Rab5 or Rab7) or with MTM1, suggesting a competitive binding mechanism. Thus, the Rab GTPases together with MTM1 likely serve as molecular switches for controlling the sequential synthesis and degradation of endosomal PI(3)P. Normal levels of endosomal PI(3)P and PI(3,5)P(2) are crucial for both endosomal morphology and function, suggesting that disruption of endosomal sorting and trafficking in skeletal muscle when MTM1 is mutated may be a key factor in precipitating X-linked MTM.

Abstract
Inositol polyphosphates other than Ins(1,4,5)P3 are involved in several aspects of cell regulation. For example, recent evidence has implicated InsP6, Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and their close metabolic relatives, which are amongst the more abundant intracellular inositol polyphosphates, in chromatin organization, DNA maintenance, gene transcription, nuclear mRNA transport, membrane trafficking and control of cell proliferation. However, little is known of how the intracellular concentrations of inositol polyphosphates change through the cell cycle. Here we show that the concentrations of several inositol polyphosphates fluctuate in synchrony with the cell cycle in proliferating WRK-1 cells. InsP6, Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 and their metabolic relatives behave similarly: concentrations are high during G1-phase, fall to much lower levels during S-phase and rise again late in the cycle. The Ins(1,2,3)P3 concentration shows especially large fluctuations, and PP-InsP5 fluctuations are also very marked. Remarkably, Ins(1,2,3)P3 turns over fastest during S-phase, when its concentration is lowest. These results establish that several fairly abundant intracellular inositol polyphosphates, for which important biological roles are emerging, display dynamic behaviour that is synchronized with cell-cycle progression.

Abstract
Multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase (MIPP) is an enzyme that, in vitro, has the interesting property of degrading higher inositol polyphosphates to the Ca2+ second messenger, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3), independently of inositol lipid breakdown. We hypothesized that a truncated cytosolic form of the largely endoplasmic reticulum-confined MIPP (cyt-MIPP) could represent an important new tool in the investigation of Ins(1,4,5)P3-dependent intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. To optimize our ability to judge the impact of cyt-MIPP on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) we chose a poorly responsive beta-cell line (HIT M2.2.2) with an abnormally low [Ca2+]i. Our results show for the first time in an intact mammalian cell that cyt-MIPP expression leads to a significant enhancement of Ins(1,4,5)P3 concentration. This is achieved without a significant interference from other cyt-MIPP-derived inositol phosphates. Furthermore, the low basal [Ca2+]i of these cells was raised to normal levels (35 to 115 nm) when they expressed cyt-MIPP. Noteworthy is that the normal feeble glucose-induced Ca2+ response of HIT M2.2.2 cells was enhanced dramatically by mechanisms related to this increase in basal [Ca2+]i. These data support the use of cyt-MIPP as an important tool in investigating Ins(1,4,5)P3-dependent Ca2+ homeostasis and suggest a close link between Ins(1,4,5)P3 concentration and basal [Ca2+]i, the latter being an important modulator of Ca2+ signaling in the pancreatic beta-cell.

Abstract
Multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase (Minpp1) metabolizes inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (InsP(5)) and inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP(6)) with high affinity in vitro. However, Minpp1 is compartmentalized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen, where access of enzyme to these predominantly cytosolic substrates in vivo has not previously been demonstrated. To gain insight into the physiological activity of Minpp1, Minpp1-deficient mice were generated by homologous recombination. Tissue extracts from Minpp1-deficient mice lacked detectable Minpp1 mRNA expression and Minpp1 enzyme activity. Unexpectedly, Minpp1-deficient mice were viable, fertile, and without obvious defects. Although Minpp1 expression is upregulated during chondrocyte hypertrophy, normal chondrocyte differentiation and bone development were observed in Minpp1-deficient mice. Biochemical analyses demonstrate that InsP(5) and InsP(6) are in vivo substrates for ER-based Minpp1, as levels of these polyphosphates in Minpp1-deficient embryonic fibroblasts were 30 to 45% higher than in wild-type cells. This increase was reversed by reintroducing exogenous Minpp1 into the ER. Thus, ER-based Minpp1 plays a significant role in the maintenance of steady-state levels of InsP(5) and InsP(6). These polyphosphates could be reduced below their natural levels by aberrant expression in the cytosol of a truncated Minpp1 lacking its ER-targeting N terminus. This was accompanied by slowed cellular proliferation, indicating that maintenance of cellular InsP(5) and InsP(6) is essential to normal cell growth. Yet, depletion of cellular inositol polyphosphates during erythropoiesis emerges as an additional physiological activity of Minpp1; loss of this enzyme activity in erythrocytes from Minpp1-deficient mice was accompanied by upregulation of a novel, substitutive inositol polyphosphate phosphatase.

Abstract
The therapeutic properties of lithium ions (Li+) are well known; however, the mechanism of their action remains unclear. To investigate this problem, we have isolated Li+-resistant mutants from Dictyostelium. Here, we describe the analysis of one of these mutants. This mutant lacks the Dictyostelium prolyl oligopeptidase gene (dpoA). We have examined the relationship between dpoA and the two major biological targets of lithium: glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) and signal transduction via inositol (1,4,5) trisphosphate (IP3). We find no evidence for an interaction with GSK-3, but instead find that loss of dpoA causes an increased concentration of IP3. The same increase in IP3 is induced in wild-type cells by a prolyl oligopeptidase (POase) inhibitor. IP3 concentrations increase via an unconventional mechanism that involves enhanced dephosphorylation of inositol (1,3,4,5,6) pentakisphosphate. Loss of DpoA activity therefore counteracts the reduction in IP3 concentration caused by Li+ treatment. Abnormal POase activity is associated with both unipolar and bipolar depression; however, the function of POase in these conditions is unclear. Our results offer a novel mechanism that links POase activity to IP3 signalling and provides further clues for the action of Li+ in the treatment of depression.

Abstract
Dictyostelium cells have enzyme activities that generate the inositol polyphosphate Ins(1,4,5)P3 from Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 via the intermediates Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and Ins(1,4,5,6)P4. These enzyme activities could explain why cells with a deletion of the single phospholipase C gene (plc- cells) possess nearly normal Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels. In this study the regulation and the subcellular localization of the enzyme activities was investigated. The enzyme activities performing the different reaction steps from Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 to Ins(1,4,5)P3 are probably due to a single enzyme. Indications for this are the previously shown similar Ca2+ dependencies of the various reaction steps. Furthermore, the activities mediating the complete conversion of Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5 to Ins(1,4,5)P3 co-purify after subcellular fractionation, solubilization, and chromatography of the proteins. Subcellular fractionation studies demonstrate that the enzyme is localized mainly at the inner face of the plasma membrane. The enzyme activity could not be stimulated in vitro by guanosine 5'-(3-thio)triphosphate, a procedure known to activate G-protein-coupled enzymes in Dictyostelium. Still, in plc- cells the level of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was increased significantly after stimulation with high concentrations of the extracellular ligand cAMP. This stimulation is most likely due to the influx of Ca2+ because no increase of Ins(1,4,5)P3 could be detected in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. The results demonstrate the existence of a new receptor-controlled route for the formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 that is independent of phospholipase C.

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
1. HL60 promyeloid cells contain high intracellular concentrations of inositol polyphosphates, notably inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (InsP5) and inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6). To determine their intracellular location(s), we studied the release of inositol (poly)phosphates, of ATP, and of cytosolic and granule-enclosed enzymes from cells permeabilized by four different methods. 2. When cells were treated with digitonin, all of the inositol phosphates were released in parallel with the cytosolic constituents. Most of the InsP5 and InsP6 was released before significant permeabilization of azurophil granules. 3. Similar results were obtained from cells preloaded with ethylene glycol and permeabilized by osmotic lysis. 4. Electroporation at approximately 500 V/cm caused rapid release of free inositol. Higher field strengths provoked release of most of the ATP, InsP5 and InsP6, but only slight release of the intracellular enzymes. Multiple discharges released approximately 80-90% of total InsP5 and InsP6. In the absence of bivalent-cation chelators, InsP5 and InsP6 were released less readily than ATP. 5. Treatment of cells with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin caused quantitative release of inositol and ATP, without release of intracellular enzymes. However, inositol phosphates were released much less readily than inositol or ATP. Even after prolonged incubation with a high concentration of alpha-toxin, only approximately 50-70% of InsP2, InsP3 and InsP4 and < or = 20% of InsP5 and InsP6 were released, indicating that the high charge or large hydrated radius of InsP5 and InsP6 might limit their release through small toxin-induced pores. 6. These results indicate that most intracellular inositol metabolites are either in, or in rapid exchange with, the cytosolic compartment of HL60 cells. However, they leave open the possibility that a small proportion of cellular InsP5 and InsP6 (< or = 10-20%) might be in some intracellular bound form.

We have purified membrane-associated Ins(1,4,5)P3/Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 5-phosphatases from bovine testis and human erythrocytes by chromatography on several media, including a novel 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate affinity column. 2. The enzymes have apparent molecular masses of 42 kDa (testis) and 70 kDa (erythrocyte), as determined by SDS/PAGE, and affinities for Ins(1,4,5)P3 of 14 microM and 22 microM respectively. 3. The two enzymes hydrolyse both Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and are therefore type I Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatases [nomenclature of Hansen, Johanson, Williamson and Williamson (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 17319-17326]. 4. On chromatofocusing, the partially purified testicular enzyme migrates as two peaks of activity, with pI values of about 5.8 and 5.5. The erythrocyte enzyme exhibits only the latter peak. 5. The testis 5-phosphatase is labile at 37 degrees C, but its activity can be maintained in the presence of 50 mM phorbol dibutyrate (PdBu). After PdBu treatment, a third form of the enzyme, with pI about 6.2, appears on chromatofocusing, but without change in its Km or Vmax. 6. Consideration of the properties of these enzymes and of the 5-phosphatases from other tissues suggests that type I Ins(1,4,5)P3 5-phosphatases are of two well-defined subtypes. We propose that these be termed type Ia [typified by the testis enzyme: approximately 40 kDa, higher affinity for Ins(1,4,5)P3] and Type Ib [typified by the erythrocyte enzyme: approximately 70 kDa, lower affinity for Ins(1,4,5)P3].

Abstract
1. A detailed structural survey has been made of the inositol phosphates of unstimulated and vasopressin-stimulated WRK-1 rat mammary tumour cells. Inositol phosphate peaks were separated by h.p.l.c., and structural assignments were made for more than 20 compounds by combinations of: (a) co-chromatography with labelled standards; (b) site-specific enzymic dephosphorylation; (c) complete and partial periodate oxidation, followed by h.p.l.c. of polyols and their stereospecific oxidation by dehydrogenases; and (d) ammoniacal hydrolysis. 2. The 'inositol monophosphates' fraction from unstimulated cells included an uncharacterized peak, probably containing some glycerophosphoinositol, and Ins(1:2-cyclic)P. Stimulation provoked accumulation of both Ins1P and Ins3P, of Ins2P, and of Ins5P and/or the enantiomers Ins4P and Ins6P. The proportions of Ins1P and Ins3P were determined by partial periodate oxidation and enantiomeric identification of the resulting glucitols. 3. Three inositol bisphosphate peaks were detected in unstimulated cells: Ins(1,4)P2 [this was distinguished chemically from its enantiomer Ins(3,6)P2], Ins(3,4)P2 and/or Ins(1,6)P2, and Ins(4,5)P2 and/or Ins(5,6)P2. On stimulation, Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(3,4)P2 [and/or Ins(1,6)P2] levels increased, and Ins(1:2-cyclic,4)P2 and Ins(1,3)P2 were also formed. 4. Three inositol trisphosphate peaks were obtained from unstimulated cells: all increased during stimulation. These were Ins(1,3,4)P3 [with some Ins(1:2-cyclic,4,5)P3], Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(3,4,5)P3 [and/or Ins(1,5,6)P3]. During stimulation, another compound, probably Ins(1,4,6)P3, appeared in the 'Ins(1,4,5)P3 peak'. The 'Ins(3,4,5)P3 peak' contained a second trisphosphate, probably Ins(2,4,5)P3. 5. Three inositol tetrakisphosphates, namely Ins(1,3,4,6)P4, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, were present in unstimulated cells, and all accumulated during stimulation. 6. Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, which is the most abundant inositol polyphosphate in these cells, a less abundant inositol pentakisphosphate and inositol hexakisphosphate were all unresponsive to stimulation.
