Pure alkaline phosphatase of the calf intestine is able to hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol 4,5-diphosphate (TPI) to phosphatidylinositol and Pi and to dephosphorylate phosphatidic acid. This phosphomonoesterase activity shows a considerably high specific activity when an incubation medium at neutral pH containing 3 mM deoxycholate is used. The activity is inhibited by low concentrations of Ca2+. The enzyme has no detectable phosphodiesterase activity under the conditions tested.

Platelets, and a variety of other cells, rapidly hydrolyze the phosphoinositides in response to stimulation by agonists. One of the products of hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-diphosphate is inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, which recently has been suggested to mediate intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. We have found that human platelets contain an enzyme that degrades inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. We have isolated this soluble enzyme and find that it hydrolyzes the 5-phosphate of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Km = 30 microM, Vmax = 5.3 microM/min/mg of protein). The products of the reaction are inositol 1,4-diphosphate and phosphate. The apparent molecular weight of the enzyme is 38,000 as determined both by gel filtration and by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence and absence of 2-mercaptoethanol. This enzyme is specific for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. Other water soluble inositol phosphates as well as phosphorylated sugars are not hydrolyzed, while the only inositol containing phospholipid hydrolyzed is phosphatidylinositol 4,5-diphosphate at a rate less than 1% that for inositol 4,5-trisphosphate. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase requires Mg2+ for activity and is inhibited by Ca2+, Ki = 70 microM. Li+, up to 40 mM, has no effect on enzyme activity. The duration and magnitude of any inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate response in stimulated platelets may be determined by the activity of this enzyme.

Ubiquitin, a unique protein with esterase and carbonic anhydrase activity, has been found to have also a p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity. This phosphomonoesterase activity of ubiquitin has an acidic pH optimum; its true substrate appears to be the phosphomonoanion, with a Km of 1.8 X 10(-3) M. It is competitively inhibited by the typical acid phosphatase inhibitors, arsenate (Ki = 1.3 X 10(-3) M), molybdate (Ki = 1.2 X 10(-6) M), and phosphate (Ki = 1.4 X 10(-3) M). These inhibitors have no effect on the CO2 hydration and p-nitrophenyl acetate esterase activities of the ubiquitin. Acetazolamide slightly inhibited the p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity.

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.

Treatment of chicken erythrocytes with ionophore A23187 and Ca2+ caused the breakdown of a large proportion of the cellular polyphosphoinositides. Since no diacylglycerol or phosphatidate was generated, but there was a small increase in the level of phosphatidylinositol, it was concluded that breakdown occurred as a result of phosphomonoesterase activation. Experiments with subcellular fractions showed that the phosphomonoesterase activity was present in the cytosolic fraction of the 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.

Rat pancreatic islets demonstrate inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase activity which is 3 times higher than that in the exocrine pancreas. This enzyme has several features in common with the erythrocyte and hepatocyte enzymes: it is located primarily in the plasma membrane, it has a similar Km for inositol trisphosphate (IP3) (16 microM), and it requires Mg2+. The activity of the islet enzyme is inhibited by several diphosphorylated glucose metabolites: 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, and glucose 1,6-bisphosphate. Monophosphorylated and unphosphorylated metabolites have little or no effect on its activity. Several reports show that stimulation of islets with glucose raises the concentrations of various glucose metabolites including fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, glucose 1,6-bisphosphate, and 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate to concentrations that are in the range that inhibit the islet inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase. Other reports show that IP3 mobilizes calcium when added to permeabilized insulin-secreting cells. It is possible that the increase in cytosolic calcium known to occur during glucose-induced insulin secretion may be sustained in part by higher IP3 levels resulting from the inhibition of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphomonoesterase by some of the diphosphorylated glucose metabolites.

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.

The two-step isomerization of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P3) to Ins-1,3,4-P3 via the intermediate inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins-P4) was studied in intact RINm5F cells and in subcellular fractions. Muscarinic stimulation with carbamylcholine leads to a rapid (2 s) rise in both Ins-1,4,5-P3 and Ins-P4, whereas Ins-1,3,4-P3 was produced only after a lag of at least 5 s. In cells with depleted Ca2+ stores, the rise in Ins-1,4,5-P3 was nearly tripled, and that of Ins-1,3,4-P3 markedly diminished as compared to control cells. Raising the free Ca2+ concentration from 10(-7) to 10(-5) M increased inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate-3-kinase activity in cytosolic fractions by 2 1/2-fold (EC50 for Ca2+ approximately 0.8 microM) but had no effect on the activity of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate-5-phosphomonoesterase. At 10(-7) M Ca2+ these two enzymes displayed comparable activity when assayed at concentrations of Ins-1,4,5-P3 occurring in stimulated cells; however, at 10(-5) M Ca2+, kinase activity predominates. These results suggest that Ins-1,4,5-P3 counter-regulates its own levels through the activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase and that the increase in [Ca2+]i may account for the transience of the rise in Ins-1,4,5-P3 seen during muscarinic stimulation of RINm5F cells.
