Release of PI-anchoring enzymes and other effects of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C from Bacillus thuringiensis on TN-368 cells from a moth ovary. Toxicon 27, 637-645, 1989.--The effect of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C(PIPLC) from Bacillus thuringiensis was investigated on TN-368 cells, derived from the ovary of a moth, Trichoplusia ni. Quantitative analysis of lipids showed that phosphatidylinositol (PI) was contained as one of the major phospholipids in TN-368 cells, whereas sphingomyelin and cholesterol were minor lipid components. When TN-368 cells were treated with PIPLC, significant amounts of alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase and beta-glucosidase were released from these cells. Thus, these enzymes were shown to be PI-anchoring proteins in the plasma membrane of these cells. In the presence of 4.2 units of PIPLC, the cell growth of TN-368 was inhibited by 50%. In contrast with normal cells, the cells cultured in the presence of PIPLC became swollen and globular, losing their protoplasmic extensions. Also, there was degeneration of the interior of TN-368 cells cultivated in the presence of PIPLC. Mitochondria became swollen with a decrease in number of granules while the crista turned transparent. Also, an increase in lysosomes was observed and vacuoles seemingly derived from smooth endoplasmic reticula appeared.

The larval midgut epithelial cell of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, has two forms of alkaline phosphatase and trehalase, soluble and membrane-bound. Alkaline phosphatase and trehalase of the latter form are found in the brush border membrane and the basolateral membrane, respectively. In this work we studied the membrane anchors of these membrane-bound enzymes. Alkaline phosphatase was solubilized by phosphatidyl-inositol-specific phospholipase C, but not by papain. Conversely, trehalase was released from the membrane by papain, but not by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. Both enzymes were solubilized in an amphiphilic form with 0.5% Triton X-100 plus 0.5% sodium deoxycholate (pH 7.0). The detergent-solubilized alkaline phosphatase and trehalase were converted to hydrophilic form on incubation with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C and papain, respectively. The effects of papain on solubilization and conversion of trehalase were completely inhibited by leupeptin. These results suggest that, in the silkworm larvae, alkaline phosphatase is anchored in the brush-border membrane via a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol, while trehalase is associated with the basolateral membrane through a hydrophobic segment of the polypeptide.

Isolation of two membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase (AP) species from avian growth plate cartilage matrix vesicle (MV) fractions is described. AP was first released from the membranes by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PIase C), followed by chromatography on DEAE-Bio-Gel A and Reactive-Red agarose. Two AP species having apparent Mr of 81.5 and 77 kDa by SDS-PAGE were purified in high yield and specific activity by this simple method. Treatment with neuraminidase to remove sialic acid residues reduced their size slightly, but did not diminish the difference in Mr between the two species. Digestion with N-glycanase, however, decreased both AP species to a common size of 59 kDa. This reveals that both enzymes are highly glycosylated and suggests that the two forms may result from differences in degree of glycation. The amino acid compositions of the two avian enzyme forms are very similar, but are markedly enriched in serine, glycine and glutamate when compared to those reported for mammalian liver-kidney-bone AP. Possible differences in amino acid sequence between the two avian forms have not been excluded. The cross-reactivity of polyclonal antibodies to these enzymes with bovine kidney, but not intestinal AP, indicate that the avian cartilage APs are of the liver-kidney-bone isozyme type.

Placental alkaline phosphatase [orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum), EC 3.1.3.1] is a member of a diverse group of membrane proteins whose attachment to the lipid bilayer is mediated by a phosphatidylinositol-glycan. To investigate structural aspects of the glycolipid anchor, cultured WISH cells were used because we found that they produce the enzyme in abundant quantities. When cell suspensions were incubated with purified phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, most of the placental alkaline phosphatase was released from membranes in a hydrophilic form. On incubation of the cells with [14C]ethanolamine, [14C]myristic acid, or myo-[3H]inositol, each was incorporated into the phosphatase near the carboxyl terminus, showing that these components, which are found in other phosphatidylinositol membrane-linked proteins, are also present in placental alkaline phosphatase.

Binding of two monoclonal anti-liposome antibodies to the surface of cultured murine peritoneal macrophages was investigated by indirect immunofluorescence and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Neither antibody bound to cultures of freshly explanted, nonadherent macrophages, but immunoreactivity was observed following cell adherence to tissue culture plastic. Fluorescent microscopic evaluation revealed heterogeneity in staining patterns of the antibodies on adherent cells. Binding both to viable and fixed adherent macrophages was observed even after a 10,000-fold dilution of antibody. Treatment of adherent macrophage cultures with trypsin increased antibody binding. Further treatment of trypsinized-macrophages with alkaline phosphatase or neuraminidase did not affect antibody binding, but phospholipase D and, to a greater extent, phospholipase C resulted in a marked decrease in cellular binding. The data indicate that antibodies produced against liposomes appear to bind to surface phospholipids of macrophages, but binding can be influenced by the physiological state of the macrophage and overlying cell surface proteins.

Renal dipeptidase (dehydropeptidase-I, EC 3.4.13.11) was released from pig kidney membrane preparations by treatment with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C from Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus thuringiensis and a phospholipase C preparation from Bacillus cereus to a similar extent as alkaline phosphatase. Endopeptidase-24.11 and aminopeptidase N were not released by this treatment. After treatment of the membrane fraction with the S. aureus phospholipase C the dipeptidase was converted from an amphipathic to a hydrophilic form, as deduced from phase-separation experiments in Triton X-114. It is concluded that renal dipeptidase is anchored to the microvillar membrane by covalently attached phosphatidylinositol.

1. Activities of alkaline phosphatase, liver-membranous, liver-soluble and serum-soluble, were dramatically induced in dogs by treatment with both phenobarbital and brovanexine. The treatment induced a 17-fold increase in membranous, a 155-fold increase in soluble, and a 105-fold increase in serum alkaline phosphatases. 2. There was no difference in the enzymatic behavior of the three forms of alkaline phosphatase, on heat stability, amino acid inhibition and optimum pH. 3. When the three alkaline phosphatases were treated initially with n-butanol, their apparent molecular size was identical. After treatment with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, the liver-soluble and serum-soluble alkaline phosphatase were of the same molecular size. Liver-membranous alkaline phosphatase, however, was larger in molecular size than the other two forms, suggesting a difference between soluble and membranous alkaline phosphatase forms. 4. In terms of the sugar moiety of the three alkaline phosphatase forms, the membranous enzyme showed more of the higher affinity fraction and less of the lower affinity fraction of concanavalin A, compared with the soluble enzymes. 5. Consequently, it is possible that the membranous enzyme may be solubilized by an enzyme such as phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C and modify further the sugar moiety of alkaline phosphatase molecules, resulting in serum alkaline phosphatase transfer from the soluble enzyme in liver.

Rat sciatic nerve cytosol contains a phosphodiesterase of the phospholipase C type that catalyzes the hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids, with preferences of phosphatidylinositol 4'-phosphate (PIP) greater than phosphatidylinositol (PI) much greater than phosphatidylinositol 4',5'-bisphosphate (PIP2), at a pH optimum of 5.5-6.0 and at maximum rates of 55, 13, and 0.7 nmol/min/mg protein, respectively. Analysis of reaction products by TLC and formate exchange chromatography shows that inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate (83%) and diacylglycerol are the major products of PI hydrolysis. [32P]-PIP hydrolysis yields inositol bisphosphate, inositol phosphate, and inorganic phosphate, indicating the presence of phosphodiesterase, phosphomonoesterase, and/or inositol phosphate phosphatase activities in nerve cytosol. Phosphodiesterase activity is Ca2+-dependent and completely inhibited by EGTA, but phosphomonoesterase activity is independent of divalent cations or chelating agents. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) and lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) inhibit PI hydrolysis. They stimulate PIP and PIP2 hydrolysis up to equimolar concentrations, but are inhibitory at higher concentrations. Both diacylglycerols and free fatty acids stimulate PI hydrolysis and counteract its inhibition by PC and lysoPC. PIP2 is a poor substrate for the cytosolic phospholipase C and strongly inhibits hydrolysis of PI. However, it enhances PIP hydrolysis up to an equimolar concentration.

Stimulation of human platelets by thrombin leads to rises of both inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3) within 10 s. The mass of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was measured in platelet extracts after conversion to [3-32P]Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 with Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP. Basal levels were equivalent to 0.2 microM and rose to 1 microM within 10 s of stimulation by thrombin. The mass of Ins(1,3,4)P3 was more than 10-fold greater than that of Ins(1,4,5)P3 between 10 and 60 s of thrombin stimulation. These results indicate that the majority of InsP3 liberated by phospholipase C in stimulated platelets must be the non-cyclic Ins(1,4,5)P3 in order to allow rapid phosphorylation by Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase to Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 and then dephosphorylation to Ins(1,3,4)P3 by 5-phosphomonoesterase. A significant proportion of the InsP3 extracted from thrombin-stimulated platelets under neutral conditions is resistant to Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase but susceptible after acid treatment, implying the presence of inositol 1,2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,2cyc4,5)P3. The relative proportion of Ins(1,2cyc4,5)P3 increases with time. We suggest that such gradual accumulation is attributable to the relative insensitivity of this compound to hydrolytic and phosphorylating enzymes. Therefore, early Ca2+ mobilization in platelets is more likely to be effected by Ins(1,4,5)P3 than by Ins(1,2cyc4,5)P3.

Membranous and soluble forms of rat liver alkaline phosphatase were selectively prepared by extracting microsomes with n-butanol at pH 8.5 and 5.5, respectively, and purified in homogeneous forms by the method previously established (Miki et al. (1986) Eur. J. Biochem. 160, 41-48). When subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the two forms migrated to the same position in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, while the membranous form remained at the top of gels in the absence of the detergent. Treatment of the membranous form with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C resulted in its conversion to a soluble form with the same electrophoretic mobility even in the absence of the detergent as that of the soluble form extracted at pH 5.5. Automated Edman degradation analysis showed that the two forms have the same N-terminal amino acid sequence up to the 30th residue determined. Chemical analyses of hydrolysates of the two forms by gas-liquid chromatography demonstrated that the membranous form contains palmitic acid, stearic acid, and inositol, while the soluble form contains inositol but is devoid of the fatty acids. Taken together, these results suggest that rat liver alkaline phosphatase is covalently attached to phosphatidylinositol acylated with palmitic acid and stearic acid, which functions as the membrane-anchoring domain of the enzyme molecule.
