Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns[4,5]P2) pools that bind pleckstrin homology (PH) domains were visualized by cellular expression of a phospholipase C (PLC)delta PH domain-green fluorescent protein fusion construct and analysis of confocal images in living cells. Plasma membrane localization of the fluorescent probe required the presence of three basic residues within the PLCdelta PH domain known to form critical contacts with PtdIns(4, 5)P2. Activation of endogenous PLCs by ionophores or by receptor stimulation produced rapid redistribution of the fluorescent signal from the membrane to cytosol, which was reversed after Ca2+ chelation. In both ionomycin- and agonist-stimulated cells, fluorescent probe distribution closely correlated with changes in absolute mass of PtdIns(4,5)P2. Inhibition of PtdIns(4,5)P2 synthesis by quercetin or phenylarsine oxide prevented the relocalization of the fluorescent probe to the membranes after Ca2+ chelation in ionomycin-treated cells or during agonist stimulation. In contrast, the synthesis of the PtdIns(4,5)P2 imaged by the PH domain was not sensitive to concentrations of wortmannin that had been found inhibitory of the synthesis of myo-[3H]inositol- labeled PtdIns(4,5)P2. Identification and dynamic imaging of phosphoinositides that interact with PH domains will further our understanding of the regulation of such proteins by inositol phospholipids.

Pleckstrin homology (PH) domains are small protein modules involved in recruitment of signaling molecules to cellular membranes, in some cases by binding specific phosphoinositides. We describe use of a convenient "dot-blot" approach to screen 10 different PH domains for those that recognize particular phosphoinositides. Each PH domain bound phosphoinositides in the assay, but only two (from phospholipase C-delta1 and Grp1) showed clear specificity for a single species. Using soluble inositol phosphates, we show that the Grp1 PH domain (originally cloned on the basis of its phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) binding) binds specifically to D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4) (the PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 headgroup) with KD = 27.3 nM, but binds D-myo-inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3) or D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) over 80-fold more weakly. We show that this specificity allows localization of the Grp1 PH domain to the plasma membrane of mammalian cells only when phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K) is activated. The presence of three adjacent equatorial phosphate groups was critical for inositol phosphate binding by the Grp1 PH domain. By contrast, another PH domain capable of PI 3-K-dependent membrane recruitment (encoded by EST684797) does not distinguish Ins(1,3,4)P3 from Ins(1,3,4,5)P3 (binding both with very high affinity), despite selecting strongly against Ins(1,4,5)P3. The remaining PH domains tested appear significantly less specific for particular phosphoinositides. Together with data presented in the literature, our results suggest that many PH domains bind similarly to multiple phosphoinositides (and in some cases phosphatidylserine), and are likely to be regulated in vivo by the most abundant species to which they bind. Thus, using the same simple approach to study several PH domains simultaneously, our studies suggest that highly specific phosphoinositide binding is a characteristic of relatively few cases.

It has been reported that there are two alternatively spliced variants of phospholipase C-delta4 (PLCdelta4), termed ALT I and II, that contain an additional 32 and 14 amino acids in their respective sequences in the linker region between the catalytic X and Y domains (Lee, S. B., and Rhee, S. G. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 25-31). We report here the isolation and characterization of a novel alternative splicing isoform of PLCdelta4, termed ALT III, as a negative regulator of PLC. In ALT III, alternative splicing occurred in the catalytic X domain, i.e. 63 amino acids (residues 424-486) containing the C-terminal of the X domain and linker region were substituted for 32 amino acids corresponding to the insert sequence of ALT I. Although the expression level of ALT III was found to be much lower in most tissues and cells compared with that of PLCdelta4, it was significantly higher in some neural cells, such as NIE-115 cells and p19 cells differentiated to neural cells by retinoic acid. Interestingly, recombinant ALT III protein did not retain enzymatic activity, and the activity of PLCdelta4 overexpressed in COS7 cells was markedly decreased by the co-expression of ALT III but not by ALT I or II. Moreover, N-terminal pleckstrin homology domain (PH domain) of ALT III alone could inhibit the increase of inositol-1,4, 5-trisphosphate levels in PLCdelta4-overexpressing NIH3T3 cells, whereas a PH domain deletion mutant could not, indicating that the PH domain is necessary and sufficient for its inhibitory effect. The ALT III PH domain specifically bound to phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns)-4,5-P2 and PtdIns-3,4,5-P3 but not PtdIns, PtdIns-4-P, or inositol phosphates, and the mutant R36G, which retained only weak affinity for PtdIns-4,5-P2, could not inhibit the activity of PLCdelta4. These results indicate that PtdIns-4,5-P2 binding to PH domain is essential for the inhibitory effect of ALT III. ALT III also inhibited PLCdelta1 activity and partially suppressed PLCgamma1 activity, but not PLCbeta1 in vitro; it did inhibit all types of isozymes tested in vivo. Taken together, our results indicate that ALT III is a negative regulator of PLC that is most effective against the PLC delta-type isozymes, and its PH domain is essential for its function.

Green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged phospholipase C (PLC)-delta1 and its mutants were expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. GFP-PLC-delta1 or the GFP-tagged pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of PLC-delta1 itself was found to be predominantly localized at the plasma membrane. The DeltaPH mutant or a site-directed mutant containing a PH domain which does not bind inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate and cannot hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate in vitro was seen only in the cytosol. In living MDCK cells hypo-osmotic stress caused a rapid dissociation of GFP-PLC-delta1 from the plasma membrane, which coincided with phosphoinositide breakdown. A PLC inhibitor, U73122, blocked this translocation, but depletion of extracellular Ca2+ had no effect. The translocation was reversed by replacement with an iso-osmotic buffer. Our results demonstrate that the PH domain plays a critical role in the membrane targeting of PLC-delta1 and that the intracellular distribution of the enzyme is regulated by osmotic stress-driven phosphoinositide turnover.

Pleckstrin homology (PH) domains are recognized in more than 100 different proteins, including mammalian phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) isozymes (isotypes beta, gamma, and delta). These structural motifs are thought to function as tethering devices linking their host proteins to membranes containing phosphoinositides or beta gamma subunits of heterotrimeric GTP binding (G) proteins. Although the PH domains of PLC-delta and PLC-gamma have been studied, the comparable domains of the beta isotypes have not. Here, we have measured the affinities of the isolated PH domains of PLC-beta 1 and -beta 2 (PH-beta 1 and PH-beta 2, respectively) for lipid bilayers and G-beta gamma subunits. Like the intact enzymes, these PH domains bind to membrane surfaces composed of zwitterionic phosphatidylcholine with moderate affinity. Inclusion of the anionic lipid phosphatidylserine or phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] and inclusion of G-beta gamma subunits had little affect on their membrane affinity. In contrast, binding of PLC-delta 1 or its PH domain was highly dependent on PI(4,5)P2. We also determined whether these domains laterally associate with G-beta gamma subunits bound to membrane surfaces using fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Affinities for G-beta gamma were in the following order: PH-beta 2 >/= PH-beta 1 > PH-delta 1; the affinities of the native enzyme were as follows: PLC-beta 2 >> PLC-delta 1 > PLC-beta 1. Thus, the PH domain of PLC-beta 1 interacts with G-beta gamma in isolation, but not in the context of the native enzyme. By contrast, docking of the PH domain of PLC-beta2 with G-beta gamma is comparable to that of the full-length protein and may play a key role in G-beta gamma recognition.

In order to acquire an understanding of phospholipase C-delta3 (PLC-delta3) action on substrate localized in lipid membrane we have studied the binding of human recombinant PLC-delta3 to large, unilamellar phospholipid vesicles (LUVs). PLC-delta3 bound weakly to vesicles composed of phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) or PtdCho plus phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) or phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns). The enzyme bound strongly to LUVs composed of PtdEtn + PtdCho and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2). The binding affinity (molar partition coefficient) of PLC-delta3 to PtdEtn + PtdCho + PtdInsP2 vesicles was 7.7 x 105 m-1. High binding of PLC-delta3 was also observed for LUVs composed of phosphatidic acid (PA). Binding of PLC-delta3 to phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) vesicles was less efficient. Calculated molar partition coefficient for binding of PLC-delta3 to PA and PtdSer vesicles was 1.6 x 104 m-1 and 9.4 x 102 m-1, respectively. Presence of PA in the LUVs containing PtdInsP2 considerably enhanced the binding of PLC-delta3 to the phospholipid membrane. Binding of PLC-delta3 to phospholipid vesicles was not dependent on Ca2+ presence. In the liposome assay PA caused a concentration-dependent increase in activity of PLC-delta3. The stimulatory effect of PA on PLC-delta3 was calcium-dependent. At Ca2+ concentrations lower than 1 microm, no effect of PA on the activity of PLC-delta3 was observed. PA enhanced PLC-delta3 activity by increasing the Vmax and lowering Km for PtdInsP2. As the mol fraction of PA increased from 0-40 mol% the enzyme Vmax increased 2.3-fold and Km decreased threefold. Based on the results presented, we assume that PA supports binding of PLC-delta3 to lipid membranes by interaction with the PH domain of the enzyme. The stimulatory effect of PA depends on calcium-dependent interaction with the C2 domain of PLC-delta3. We propose that binding of PLC-delta3 to PA may serve as a mechanism for dynamic membrane association and modulation of PLC-delta3 activity.

The 130-kDa protein was isolated as a novel inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) binding protein from rat brain and was molecularly cloned to be found similar to phospholipase C-delta 1 (Kanematsu, T., Takeya, H., Watanabe, Y., Ozaki, S., Yoshida, M., Koga, T., Iwanaga, S. and Hirata, M., 1992. Putative inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding proteins in rat brain cytosol, J. Biol. Chem. 267, 6518-6525; Kanematsu, T., Misumi, Y., Watanabe, Y., Ozaki, S., Koga, T., Iwanaga, S., Ikehara, Y. and Hirata, M., 1996. A new inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding protein similar to phospholipase C-delta 1, Biochem. J. 313, 319-325). The 130-kDa protein and its deleted protein expressed in COS-1 cells were seen in both the membrane and the cytosol fractions. Truncation of 232 residues from the N-terminus, the protein molecule lacking the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain was also localized in the membrane fraction as much as seen with a full-length protein and other deleted proteins, thereby indicating that the PH domain is not primarily involved in the membrane localization. The addition of Mg2+ to homogenates of COS-1 cells caused the translocation of expressed proteins from the cytosol to the membrane fraction, yet further addition of AlF4- which induced the activation of GTP binding proteins did not cause a further translocation. The protein translocated to the membrane by the addition of Mg2+ was hardly extracted with Triton X-100. The inclusion of Ins(1,4,5)P3 or phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate in cell homogenates caused the very small reduction in the amounts of membrane-associated proteins expressed by some constructs. These results indicate that (i) the PH domain is not primarily involved in the membrane localization of the 130-kDa protein, (ii) the activation of GTP binding protein does not appear to cause the translocation of the 130-kDa protein, and (iii) intrinsic phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate present in the membrane appears to be involved in the membrane association of the 130-kDa protein to a very small extent, probably through the binding site in the PH domain.

The pleckstrin homology domain (PH domain) is now well known as a structural module for the binding of inositol compounds. In the present study, polyclonal antibodies against the peptide KVKSSSWRRERFYK, derived from the N-terminal of the PH domain of phospholipase C-delta1 (PLC-delta1), were raised in rabbits. These were then tested for their ability to inhibit the binding of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] to the binding proteins including the receptor molecule. The Fab fragment of the antibodies but not the whole molecule inhibited the binding of Ins(1,4,5)P3 not only to PLC-delta1 but also to the Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor, indicating that the antibodies raised recognized the binding site for Ins(1,4, 5)P3 in the receptor. Rat basophilic leukemic cells were permeabilized with saponin and assayed for Ins(1,4,5)P3-mediated Ca2+ release. Pretreatment of permeabilized RBL cells with the Fab fragment of the antibodies diminished the release of Ca2+ caused by Ins(1,4,5)P3, and further absorption experiments using a variety of synthetic peptides suggested that the tripeptide KVK is the epitope of the antibodies. Structural information about KVK will help in screening for Ins(1,4,5)P3 antagonists.

The collagen receptor glycoprotein VI (GPVI) induces platelet activation through a similar pathway to that used by immune receptors. In the present study we have investigated the role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in GPVI signalling. Our results show that collagen-related peptide {CRP: [GCP*(GPP*)(10)GCP*G](n); P*=hydroxyproline}, which is selective to GPVI, induces formation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P(3)] and phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate [PI(3, 4)P(2)] in platelets. The increase in the two 3-phosphorylated lipids is inhibited completely by wortmannin and by LY294002, two structurally unrelated inhibitors of PI 3-kinase. The formation of inositol phosphates and phosphatidic acid (PA), two markers of phospholipase C (PLC) activation, by CRP are inhibited by between 50 and 85% in the presence of wortmannin and LY294002. This is associated with inhibition of elevation of intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) and aggregation. Wortmannin and LY294002 also partially inhibit elevation of Ca(2+) by CRP in murine megakaryocytes. Microinjection of the pleckstrin-homology PH domain of Bruton's tyrosine kinase, which binds selectively to PI(3,4, 5)P(3), but not the R28C (Arg(28)-->Cys) mutant which binds to PI(3, 4,5)P(3) with low affinity, also inhibits elevation of [Ca(2+)](i) in megakaryocytes, suggesting that it is this lipid species which mediates the action of the PI 3-kinase pathway. Studies in platelets show that the action of wortmannin and LY294002 is not mediated through an alteration in tyrosine phosphorylation of PLCgamma2. These results demonstrate that PI 3-kinase is required for full activation of PLCgamma2 by GPVI in platelets and megakaryocytes.

The pleckstrin homology (PH) domains of phospholipase C (PLC)-delta1 and a related catalytically inactive protein, p130, both bind inositol phosphates and inositol lipids. The binding to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] by PLC-delta1 is proposed to be the critical interaction required for membrane localization to where the substrate resides; it is also required for the Ca(2+)-dependent activation of PLC-delta1 observed in the permeabilized cells. In the proximity of the PH domain, both PLC-delta1 and p130 possess the EF-hand domain, containing classical motifs implicated in calcium binding. Therefore, in the present study we examined whether the binding of the PH domain to PtdIns(4,5)P2 is regulated by changes in free Ca2+ concentration within the physiological range. A Ca2+ dependent increase in the binding to PtdIns(4,5)P2 was observed with a full-length PLC-delta1, while the isolated PH domain did not show any Ca2+ dependence. However, the connection of the EF-hand motifs to the PH domain restored the Ca2+ dependent increase in binding, even in the absence of the C2 domain. The p130 protein showed similar properties to PLC-delta1, and the EF-hand motifs were again required for the PH domain to exhibit a Ca2+ dependent increase in the binding to PtdIns(4,5)P2. The isolated PH domains from several other proteins which have been demonstrated to bind PtdIns(4,5)P2 showed no Ca2+ dependent enhancement of binding. However, when present within a chimera also containing PLC-delta1 EF-hand motifs, the Ca2+ dependent binding was again observed. These results suggest that the binding of Ca2+ to the EF-hand motifs can modulate binding to PtdIns(4,5)P2 mediated by the PH domain.
