Ectoenzyme release from rat liver and kidney by phosphatidylinositol (PI)-specific phospholipase C of Bacillus thuringiensis was studied. Alkaline phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase were released from rat kidney slices to extents of up to 60% and 30%, respectively. Release of alkaline phosphatase was observed at lower amounts of PI-specific phospholipase C than that of 5'-nucleotidase. Both enzymes were more easily released from microsomal fractions or free cells. From kidney cells, alkaline phosphatase was released without cell lysis, and more than 80% release of alkaline phosphatase was observed at 3.8% hydrolysis of PI. Isoelectric focusing profiles of alkaline phosphatase released by PI-specific phospholipase C were significantly different from the control in the cases of both rat liver and kidney. Lubrol-solubilized alkaline phosphatase was eluted at the void volume of a Toyopearl HW-55 column, while the enzyme obtained by further treatment with PI-specific phospholipase C was eluted in the lower-molecular-weight region corresponding to 100,000-110,000 daltons. Furthermore, Lubrol-solubilized phosphatase became more thermostable on treatment with PI-specific phospholipase C.

Cleavage of the polyphosphoinositides, catalyzed by phospholipase C purified from ram seminal vesicles, produces phosphorylated inositols containing cyclic phosphate esters (Wilson, D. B., Bross, T. E., Sherman, W. R., Berger, R. A., and Majerus, P. W. (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 82, 4013-4017). In the present study we describe the isolation and characterization of inositol 1:2-cyclic 4-bisphosphate and inositol 1:2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate, the two cyclic phosphate products of phospholipase C catalyzed cleavage of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, respectively. We established the structures of these two cyclic compounds through 18O labeling of phosphate moieties, phosphomonoesterase digestion, and fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry. We examined the physiological effects of these compounds in two systems: saponin-permeabilized platelets loaded with 45Ca2+ and intact Limulus photoreceptors. Both inositol 1:2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate and the noncyclic inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, but not inositol 1:2-cyclic 4-bisphosphate, release 45Ca2+ from permeabilized platelets in a concentration-dependent manner. Injection of inositol 1:2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate into Limulus ventral photoreceptor cells induces both a change in membrane conductance and a transient increase in intracellular calcium ion concentration similar to those induced by light. We injected inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and inositol 1:2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate into the same photoreceptor cell and found that the cyclic compound is approximately five times more potent than the noncyclic compound in stimulating a conductance change. We speculate that inositol 1:2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate may function as a second messenger in stimulated cells.

The phosphoinositides are metabolized by phospholipase C in response to hormone or agonist stimulation in many cell types to produce diglyceride and water-soluble inositol phosphates. We have recently shown that the phospholipase C reaction products include cyclic phosphate esters of inositol. One of these, inositol 1, 2-cyclic 4,5-trisphosphate, is active in promoting Ca2+ mobilization in platelets and in inducing changes in conductance in Limulus photoreceptors similar to those produced by light (Wilson, D. B., Connolly, T. M., Bross, T. E., Majerus, P. W., Sherman, W. R., Tyler, A., Rubin, L. J., and Brown, J. E. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 13496-13501. In the current study, we have examined the metabolism of the inositol phosphates. We find that both cyclic and non-cyclic inositol trisphosphates are metabolized by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase, to inositol 1,2-cyclic bisphosphate and inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, respectively. However, the apparent Km of the enzyme for the cyclic substrate is approximately 10-fold higher than for the non-cyclic substrate. These inositol bisphosphates are more slowly degraded to inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate and inositol 1-phosphate, respectively. Inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate is then hydrolyzed to inositol 1-phosphate, which in turn is degraded to inositol and inorganic phosphate by inositol 1-phosphate phosphatase. The human platelet inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate hydrolase enzyme and a similar rat kidney hydrolase do not utilize the cyclic polyphosphate esters of inositol as substrates. These results suggest that the inositol cyclic phosphates and the non-cyclic inositol phosphates are metabolized separately by phosphatases to cyclic and non-cyclic inositol monophosphates. The cyclic monophosphate is then converted to inositol 1-phosphate by a cyclic hydrolase. We suggest that the enzymes that metabolize the inositol phosphates may serve to regulate cellular responses to these compounds.

Human platelet plasma membranes incubated in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP and 15 mM MgCl2 incorporated radioactivity mostly into phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), which represented together over 90% of the total lipid radioactivity. After washing, reincubation of prelabelled membranes revealed some hydrolysis of the two compounds by phosphomonoesterase(s), as detected by the release of radioactive inorganic phosphate (Pi) from the two phospholipids. This degradation attained 40%/30 min for PIP in the presence of 2 mM calcium and cytosol. The effect of calcium was observed at concentrations equal to or greater than 10(-4) M. In no case did calcium alone facilitate the formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and inositol 1,4-bisphosphate (IP2). In contrast, simultaneous addition of 2 mM calcium and 2 mg/ml sodium deoxycholate promoted the formation of IP3 and IP2, indicating phosphodiesteratic cleavage of PIP2 and PIP. Phospholipase C activity was detected at calcium concentrations as low as 10(-7) M, in which case PIP2 hydrolysis was slightly more pronounced compared to PIP. Addition of cytosol increased to some extent the phospholipase C activity, suggesting that the low amount of enzyme remaining in the membrane is sufficient to promote submaximal degradation of PIP2 and PIP. We conclude that platelet polyphosphoinositides are present in the plasma membrane in a state where they remain inaccessible to phospholipase C, which is still fully active even at basal calcium concentrations, i.e., 10(-7) M. These results support the view that phosphodiesteratic cleavage of PIP2 promotes and thus precedes calcium mobilization brought about by IP3. The in vitro model presented here may prove very useful in future studies dealing with the mechanism rendering polyphosphoinositides accessible to phospholipase C attack upon agonist-receptor binding.

The Ca2+ ionophore A23187 (0.2-5 microM) stimulates the phosphorylation of the substrates of protein kinase C (40,000 dalton protein) and myosin light chain kinase (20,000 dalton protein) in the presence or absence of cyclooxygenase inhibitors. In the presence of cyclooxygenase inhibitors or millimolar Ca2+ there is no stimulation of phospholipase C by A23187. Fingerprints of the 32P-labeled 40,000 dalton protein isolated from platelets that have been stimulated with A23187, thrombin, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate and 1,2-didecanoylglycerol were identical. Higher concentrations of A23187 (1-5 microM) induced the loss of polyphosphoinositides through phosphomonoesterase activity.

Phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns-P) kinase was purified approximately 30-fold from rat brain cytosol. No contaminating activity of PtdIns kinase or of phosphomonoesterase and phospholipase C using PtdIns-P or PtdIns-P2 as substrate could be detected in the enzyme preparation. The PtdIns-P kinase activity was severalfold higher when PtdIns-P/PtdEtn vesicles rather than PtdIns-P alone were used as substrate. This might be due to increased accessibility of the enzyme for the vesicular substrate, further indicated by the lower activity obtained when PtdCho or PtdIns, phospholipids with bulky head groups, was also present in the vesicles. The product PtdIns-P2 was a competitive inhibitor with respect to PtdIns-P and 50% inhibition of enzyme activity was observed at the same product concentration regardless of whether the substrate-product mixture was presented in vesicular or micellar form, or the substrate and product were added in separate vesicles. The polyamines spermine and spermidine enhanced PtdIns-P kinase activity severalfold. Spermine also caused a shift in the MgCl2 saturation curve from sigmoidal to hyperbolic, lowering the Mg2+ concentration required for optimum kinase activity to the physiological range. Myelin basic protein enhanced the enzyme activity when PtdIns-P/PtdEtn vesicles were used as substrate, whereas it was inhibitory when PtdIns-P was added alone. The possible role of polyamines and the product PtdIns-P2 in the regulation of PtdIns-P kinase activity is discussed.

Alkaline phosphatase in a wide range of tissues has been shown to be anchored in the membrane by a specific interaction with the polar head group of phosphatidylinositol. It has previously been suggested that the production of low Mr alkaline phosphatase during the commonly used butanol extraction procedure may result from the activation of an endogenous phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C which removes the 1,2-diacylglycerol responsible for membrane anchoring. This conversion process was investigated in greater detail with human placenta used as the source of alkaline phosphatase. Mr and hydrophobicity of the alkaline phosphatase were determined by gel filtration on TSK-250 and partitioning in Triton X-114, respectively. Alkaline phosphatase extracted from human placental particulate fraction with butanol at pH 5.4 or released by incubation with Staphylococcus aureus phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C produced a form of alkaline phosphatase of Mr approx. 170,000 and relatively low hydrophobicity. By contrast, the butanol extract prepared at pH 8.3 was an aggregated form of Mr approx. 600,000 and was relatively hydrophobic. The effect of a variety of inhibitors and activators on the amount of low Mr alkaline phosphatase produced during butanol extraction revealed that it was a Ca2+- and thiol-dependent process. Proteinase inhibitors had no effect. [3H]Phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis by the particulate fraction, unlike low Mr alkaline phosphatase production, was relatively sensitive to heat inactivation, indicating that the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipases C from cytosol and lysosomes were unlikely to be responsible for conversion. A butanol-stimulated activity which removed the [3H]myristic acid from the variant surface glycoprotein ( [3H]mfVSG) of Trypanosoma brucei was detectable in the human placental particulate fraction. Since this activity was acid active, Ca2+- and thiol-dependent and relatively heat stable, it may be the same as that responsible for production of low Mr alkaline phosphatase. The only 3H-labelled product identified was phosphatidic acid, suggesting that the [3H]mfVSG-cleaving activity is a phospholipase D. These data strongly support the proposal that production of low Mr alkaline phosphatase during butanol extraction is an autolytic process occurring as the result of an endogenous phospholipase. However, they also suggest that the lysosomal and cytosolic phosphoinositide-specific phospholipases C that have previously been described in many mammalian tissues are not responsible for this process.

Ectoenzyme release from porcine intestinal brush border membranes by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C of Bacillus thuringiensis was studied. Alkaline phosphodiesterase I, alkaline phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase were released from both slices and brush border membranes. The pattern of alkaline phosphodiesterase I release was the same as that of alkaline phosphatase. The release of alkaline phosphodiesterase I induced by phospholipase C was dependent on, or proportional to, the reaction time and the concentration of phospholipase C. The Arrhenius plot for phosphodiesterase I release showed a single break at 30 degrees C for brush border membranes. Only 40% of alkaline phosphodiesterase I present in the brush border membranes were solubilized by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C treatment. The data indicate the presence of two forms of phosphodiesterase I, which are different in their sensitivity to phospholipase C. The released alkaline phosphodiesterase I had a molecular weight of 240,000 and was activated by Mg2+ and Ca2+, but strongly inhibited by EDTA.

A major glycoprotein of rat hepatoma plasma membranes was selectively released as a soluble form by incubating the membrane with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. The soluble form corresponding to the glycoprotein was also prepared by butan-1-ol extraction of microsomal membranes at pH 5.5, whereas extraction at pH 8.5 yielded an electrophoretically different form with a hydrophobic nature. The soluble glycoprotein extracted at pH 5.5 was purified by sequential chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose, Sephacryl S-300 and anti-(alkaline phosphatase) IgG-Sepharose, the last step being used to remove a contaminating alkaline phosphatase. The glycoprotein thus purified was a single protein with Mr 130,000 in SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, although it behaved as a dimer in gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300. The glycoprotein was analysed for amino acid and carbohydrate composition. The composition of the carbohydrate moiety, which amounted to 64% by weight, suggested that the glycoprotein contained much larger numbers of N-linked oligosaccharide chains than those with O-linkage. It was confirmed that the purified glycoprotein was immunologically identical not only with that released by the phospholipase C but also with the hydrophobic form extracted with butan-1-ol at pH 8.5. The results indicate that the glycoprotein of rat hepatoma plasma membranes, which has an unusually high content of carbohydrate, is another membrane protein released by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, as documented for alkaline phosphatase, acetylcholinesterase and Thy-1 antigen.

Labeling with [3H]galactose was employed to isolate a glycosylphosphatidylinositol from rat hepatocytes which might be involved in the action of insulin. The polar head group of this glycosylphosphatidylinositol was generated by phosphodiesterase hydrolysis with a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus. By Dowex AG1 x 8 chromatography the polar head group could be separated into three radioactive peaks eluting at 100 mM (peak I), 200 mM (peak II) and 500 mM (peak III) ammonium formate, respectively. Peak III was the most active as an inhibitor of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Treatment of peak III with alkaline phosphatase markedly reduced its activity on cAMP-dependent protein kinase. When peaks I, II or III were treated with alkaline phosphatase and analyzed again by Dowex AG1 x 8 chromatography, the radioactivity eluted with the aqueous fraction. The above results indicate that the polar head group of the insulin-sensitive glycosylphosphatidylinositol from rat hepatocytes exists in three different phosphorylated forms and that the biological activity of this molecule depends on its phosphorylation state.
