The metabolism of myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] consists of two pathways: dephosphorylation by 5-phosphomonoesterase(s) produces inositol 1,4-bisphosphate, and phosphorylation by Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase yields inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4,5)P4]. The requirements for Ins(1,4,5)P3 kinase activity in retina were characterized. Apparent Km values for ATP and Ins(1,4,5)P3 are 1.4 mM and 1.3 microM respectively. A direct demonstration of phosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 by [gamma-32P]ATP was achieved. Characterization of the 32P-labelled product revealed that it had the expected chromatographic and electrophoretic properties of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4.

An occurrence of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) phosphomonoesterase in human platelets was demonstrated by analyzing phosphoinositides metabolism. The activity of the enzyme was maximum at pH 7.0. It was active even in the absence of Ca2+ or Mg2+ but it was enhanced in the presence of Mg2+ or NaF. The activity was inhibited by pyrophosphate. The activity was not altered in the presence of Ca2+. Thereby, besides phosphodiesteric cleavage by phospholipase C, the amount of PIP2 in activated platelets may be reduced by the combined effect of PIP2-phosphomonoesterase and suppressed activity of PI-kinase by Ca2+.

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)

Rabbit peritoneal neutrophils, permeabilized with Triton X-100, contain inositol phosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase activity capable of converting [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P3) to [3H]inositol 1,4-bisphosphate. This activity is found predominantly associated with the soluble component of fractionated neutrophils. It is comprised of specific and nonspecific activities toward Ins-1,4,5-P3 which can be separated by cation exchange chromatography. Treatment of neutrophils with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) prior to permeabilization does not affect the rate of Ins-1,4,5-P3 breakdown by these cells. In addition, activation of endogenous protein kinase C in a soluble fraction prepared from neutrophils does not affect the specific inositol phosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase activity of this fraction. Taken together, these results provide evidence that activation of protein kinase C in the neutrophil does not affect its 5-phosphomonoesterase activity. Unlike platelets, the phosphorylation of a 5-phosphomonoesterase, if it occurs, may not play a role in the inhibitory effects of PMA on neutrophil responsiveness.

Thiophosphoester analogs of dioctanoyl and didecanoyl phosphatidic acids were synthesized for use as substrates in spectrophotometric assays. These substrates are easily dispersable in aqueous media and release thiodiacylglycerols after phosphomonoesterase catalyzed hydrolysis. The free sulfhydryl of these thiodiacylglycerols reacts with the colorimetric reagent 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB), allowing the reaction to be followed. These analogs were shown to be good substrates for calf intestine alkaline phosphatase (highest activity at alkaline pH) and phosphomonoesterases of partially purified beef brain cytosol (highest activity at physiologic pH). Cationic amphiphilic drugs inhibit the actions of alkaline phosphatase on the dioctanoyl analog, but did not inhibit enzymatic hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate. In contrast, the beef brain cytosolic fraction p-nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolysis was mildly inhibited, and the phosphatidic acid analog hydrolysis was increased slightly. Tetramisole inhibited all enzyme activities with p-nitrophenyl phosphate, but was inhibitory only to the alkaline-phosphatase activity with the phosphatidic acid analog.

At low concentrations of Mg2+, incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) in plasma membranes isolated from human polymorphonuclear leucocytes was enhanced 2-4-fold by the polyamines spermidine and spermine. Polyamines had no effects on inositol phospholipid phosphorylation at high concentrations of Mg2+. At 1 mM-Mg2+, [32P]PIP2 synthesis was maximally enhanced by 2 mM-spermine and 5 mM-spermidine, whereas putrescine only slightly enhanced synthesis. Spermine decreased the EC50 (concn. for half-maximal activity) for Mg2+ in [32P]PIP2 synthesis from 5 mM to 0.5 mM. Spermine did not modulate the Km for ATP for [32P]PIP or [32P]PIP2 synthesis. Spermine also decreased the EC50 for PI in [32P]PIP synthesis. In contrast, spermine elevated the apparent Vmax, without affecting the EC50 for PIP, for [32P]PIP2 synthesis. Spermine and spermidine also inhibited the hydrolysis of [32P]PIP2 by phosphomonoesterase activity. Therefore polyamines appear to activate inositol phospholipid kinases by eliminating the requirements for super-physiological concentrations of Mg2+. Polyamine-mediated inhibition of polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis would serve to potentiate further their abilities to promote the accumulation of polyphosphoinositides in biological systems.

In platelets, agonists that stimulate phosphoinositide turnover cause the rapid phosphorylation of a protein of apparent relative molecular mass (Mr) 40-47,000, called P47, by protein kinase C (PKC). Diverse identities have been ascribed to P47 including lipocortin, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase, pyruvate dehydrogenase alpha subunit and an actin regulatory protein. We have isolated human P47 clones by immunological screening of a lambda gt11 complementary DNA library from HL-60 cells, a human promyelocytic leukaemia cell line. P47 recombinants thus identified hybridized to a 3.0 kilobase (kb) messenger RNA in mature white blood cell lines; the same mRNA was induced in HL-60 cells during differentiation. A 1,050 base pair (bp) open reading frame that could encode a protein of Mr40,087 was confirmed by comparison with peptide sequences from platelet P47, and by expression of the putative recombinant P47 in E. coli and in vitro. The P47 sequence appears to have been conserved throughout vertebrate evolution, and is not similar to any other known sequence including human lipocortin and the alpha subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase. The P47 protein contains a potential Ca2+-binding 'EF-hand' structure and a region that strongly resembles known PKC phosphorylation sites.

We have investigated factors affecting the activation of phospholipase C in human platelets. Prior exposure of platelets to phorbol esters that stimulated protein kinase C inhibits the activation of phospholipase C in response to a variety of receptor-directed agonists, including alpha- and gamma-thrombin and thromboxane A2 analogues. Such activation has been assayed by measurements of accumulated InsP3 (including Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4)P3) and PtdOH. Inhibition is not overcome by Ca2+ ionophores, and substances that block or mimic Na+-H+ exchange neither block nor mimic these inhibitory effects. Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, other agents known to inhibit phospholipase C activation, do not accumulate in platelets exposed to phorbol esters. Although a portion of the effects of phorbol ester on InsP3 accumulation may be explained by 5-phosphomonoesterase activity, it is likely that more direct effects on phospholipase C are being exerted as well, and contribute the major inhibitory route. We have examined the susceptibility of adenylyl cyclase-associated Gi and 'Gp'-activated phospholipase C to inhibitory ADP-ribosylation by pertussis toxin-derived enzyme (S1 protomer) administered to saponin-permeabilized platelets. The effects of alpha-thrombin on adenylyl cyclase can be inhibited by up to 50% by S1, at which point inhibition of phospholipase C is barely detectable. Thromboxane A2 analogues, which do not affect adenylyl cyclase (Gi), stimulate phospholipase C; this effect is not impaired by S1. We therefore propose that the inhibitory effects of phorbol esters on the activation of phospholipase C are not mediated primarily by effects on Gi.

DNA-dependent ATPase IV has been purified to near homogeneity from the Novikoff rat hepatoma. The enzyme is devoid of DNA polymerase, RNA polymerase, exonuclease, endonuclease, phosphomonoesterase, 3'- or 5'-phosphodiesterase, polynucleotide kinase, protein kinase, topoisomerase, helicase or DNA reannealing activities at a detection level of 10(-5) to 10(-7) relative to the ATPase activity. The enzyme is a monomer of Mr 110,000, has a sedimentation coefficient of 5.9 S, a Stokes radius of 40 A and a frictional coefficient of 1.32. In the presence of Mg2+ ion and a polynucleotide effector, ATPase IV hydrolyzes either ATP or dATP to the nucleoside diphosphate plus Pi. Other ribo- or deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates are not substrates. ATPase IV utilizes double-stranded DNA and single-stranded DNA as effector; however, it does not utilize poly(dT). The Km for dsDNA or ssDNA is 2.2 microM (nucleotide). A variety of ATP analogues were found to be competitive inhibitors of ATPase IV.

The properties of the enzymes involved in Ca2+-stimulated breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4'-phosphate (PIP), phosphatidylinositol 4',5'-bisphosphate (PIP2), and phosphatidic acid (PA) in rabbit erythrocyte ghosts were studied. At 25 degrees C, 1 to 180 microM Ca2+ rapidly stimulated the breakdown of PIP and PIP2, and maximal breakdown occurred within 10 minutes at all Ca2+ concentrations. The rate and the total amount of breakdown of PA, PIP, and PIP2 increased with Ca2+ concentration. MgCl2 inhibited the rate of Ca2+-stimulated breakdown of PIP and PIP2 at Ca2+ concentrations less than 10 microM, but did not have any appreciable effects at higher Ca2+ concentrations. MgCl2 also protected against Ca2+-stimulated breakdown of PA. In the presence and absence of 5 mM MgCl2, Ca2+ stimulated half-maximal breakdown of PIP and PIP2 at 2-3 microM under hypotonic and isotonic conditions. In the presence of 5 mM MgCl2, Ca2+-stimulated breakdown of PIP and PIP2 was associated with the release of Pi and inositol bisphosphate. In the absence of MgCl2, Ca2+ stimulated the release of 32P-labeled Pi, inositol bisphosphate, and inositol trisphosphate from labeled PIP, PIP2, and PA. Ca2+ increased phosphatidylinositol content and decreased PIP and PIP2 content in these membranes. The results of this investigation suggest that Ca2+ stimulates the breakdown of polyphosphoinositides by stimulating polyphosphoinositide phosphomonoesterase and phosphodiesterase activities in rabbit erythrocyte ghosts. These activities were activated by less than 3 microM Ca2+ in the presence of MgCl2 under hypotonic or isotonic conditions. These Ca2+-stimulated polyphosphoinositide phosphoesterase activities could therefore be active under physiological conditions in normal rabbit erythrocytes.
