We have examined the specificity of oleate as an activator of phospholipase D2 (PLD2) and whether it can be used to study PLD2 localization and its involvement in cell function. Oleate stimulates PLD activity in intact RBL-2H3 mast cells. Comparing PLD1- with PLD2-overexpressing cells, oleate enhanced PLD activity only in PLD2-overexpressing cells. Membranes were also sensitive to oleate and when membranes prepared from PLD1- and PLD2-overexpressing cells were examined, oleate further increased PLD activity only in membranes from PLD2-overexpressing cells. Overexpressed green fluorescent protein (GFP)-PLD2 fusion protein was localized at the plasma membrane and GFP-PLD1 was found in an intracellular vesicular compartment. Oleate was used to examine whether overexpressed PLD2 co-localized with endogenous PLD2. RBL-2H3 mast cell homogenates were fractionated on a linear sucrose gradient and analysed for both oleate-stimulated activity and ADP ribosylation factor 1-stimulated PLD1 activity. The oleate-stimulated activity co-localized with markers of the plasma membrane including the β-subunit of the Fc∊RI and linker for activation of T cells. Fractionation of homogenates from PLD2-overexpressing cells demonstrated that the overexpressed PLD2 fractionated in an identical location to the endogenous oleate-stimulated activity and this activity was greatly enhanced in comparison with control membranes. Examination of membranes prepared from COS-7, Jurkat and HL60 cells indicated a relationship between oleate-stimulated PLD2 activity and PLD2 immunoreactivity. We examined whether oleate could be used to activate secretion and membrane ruffling in adherent RBL-2H3 mast cells. Oleate did not stimulate secretion but did stimulate membrane ruffling, which was short-lived. We conclude that oleic acid is a selective activator of PLD2 and can be used for localization studies, but its use as an activator of PLD2 in intact cells to study function is limited due to toxicity.

Centaurin-α is a 46 kDa in vitro binding protein for the lipid second messenger PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. In this report we have addressed whether centaurin-α1, a human homologue of centaurin-α, binds PtdIns(3,4,5)P3in vivo and furthermore, identified a potential physiological function for centaurin-α1. Using confocal microscopy of live PC12 cells, transiently transfected with a chimera of green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to the N-terminus of centaurin-α1 (GFP-centaurin-α1), we demonstrated the rapid plasma membrane recruitment of cytosolic GFP-centaurin-α1 following stimulation with either nerve growth factor or epidermal growth factor. This recruitment was dependent on the centaurin-α1 pleckstrin homology domains and was blocked by the PtdIns(4,5)P2 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) inhibitors wortmannin (100 nM) and LY294002 (50 μM), and also by co-expression with a dominant negative p85. Functionally, we demonstrated that centaurin-α1 could complement a yeast strain deficient in the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) GTPase-activating protein Gcs1; a complementation that was blocked by mutagenesis of conserved cysteine residues within the ARF GTPase-activating protein analogous domain of centaurin-α1. Taken together, our data demonstrated that centaurin-α1 could potentially function as an ARF GTPase-activating protein that, on agonist stimulation, was recruited to the plasma membrane possibly through an ability to interact with PtdIns(3,4,5)P3.

Phospholipase Ds (PLDs) are regulated enzymes that generate phosphatidic acid (PA), a putative second messenger implicated in the regulation of vesicular trafficking and cytoskeletal reorganization. Mast cells, when stimulated with antigen, show a dramatic alteration in their cytoskeleton and also release their secretory granules by exocytosis. Butan-1-ol, which diverts the production of PA generated by PLD to the corresponding phosphatidylalcohol, was found to inhibit membrane ruffling when added together with antigen or when added after antigen. Inhibition by butan-1-ol was completely reversible because removal of butan-1-ol restored membrane ruffling. Measurements of PLD activation by antigen indicate a requirement for continual PA production during membrane ruffling, which was maintained for at least 30 min. PLD1 and PLD2 are both expressed in mast cells and green fluorescent protein-tagged proteins were used to identify PLD2 localizing to membrane ruffles of antigen-stimulated mast cells together with endogenous ADP ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6). In contrast, green fluorescent protein-PLD1 localized to intracellular vesicles and remained in this location after stimulation with antigen. Membrane ruffling was independent of exocytosis of secretory granules because phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate increased membrane ruffling in the absence of exocytosis. Antigen or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate stimulation increased both PLD1 and PLD2 activity when expressed individually in RBL-2H3 cells. Although basal activity of PLD2-overexpressing cells is very high, membrane ruffling was still dependent on antigen stimulation. In permeabilized cells, antigen-stimulated phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate synthesis was dependent on both ARF6 and PA generated from PLD. We conclude that both activation of ARF6 by antigen and a continual PLD2 activity are essential for local phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate generation that regulates dynamic actin cytoskeletal rearrangements.

ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF), a small GTPase required for vesicle formation, has been identified as an activator of phospholipase D (PLD), thus implying that PLD is localized at intracellular organelles. HL60 cells were prelabelled with [14C]acetate for 72 h and, after disruption, fractionated on a linear sucrose gradient. ARF1-regulated PLD activity in each fraction was assessed by measurement of phosphatidylethanol production. Two peaks of activity were identified, coincident with markers for Golgi/endoplasmic reticulum/granules (endomembranes) and plasma membrane respectively. Analysis of the fractions using exogenous phosphatidylcholine as substrate confirmed the presence of ARF1-dependent PLD activity in endomembranes and plasma membrane, and also identified an additional activity in the cytosol. In formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-stimulated cells, PLD activity as assessed by phosphatidylethanol formation was also associated with both the plasma membrane and endomembranes. Since ARF1-regulated PLD activity requires phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), the distributions of inositol lipids and the kinases responsible for lipid phosphorylation were examined. PIP2 was highly enriched at the plasma membrane, whereas phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), the precursors for PIP2 synthesis, were found predominantly at endomembranes. The distribution of PI 4-kinase and PI4P 5-kinase activities confirmed the plasma membrane as the major site of PIP2 production. However, endomembranes possessed substantial PI 4-kinase activity and some PI4P 5-kinase activity, illustrating the potential for PIP2 synthesis. It is concluded that: (1) ARF1-regulated PLD activity is localized at endomembranes and the plasma membrane, (2) PIP2 is available at both membrane compartments to function as a cofactor for ARF-regulated PLD, and (3) in intact cells, formyl-Met-Leu-Phe stimulates PLD activity at endomembranes as well as plasma membrane.

Golgi-localized γ-ear homology domain, ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF)-binding proteins (GGAs) facilitate distinct steps of post-Golgi traffic. Human and yeast GGA proteins are only ∼25% identical, but all GGA proteins have four similar domains based on function and sequence homology. GGA proteins are most conserved in the region that interacts with ARF proteins. To analyze the role of ARF in GGA protein localization and function, we performed mutational analyses of both human and yeast GGAs. To our surprise, yeast and human GGAs differ in their requirement for ARF interaction. We describe a point mutation in both yeast and mammalian GGA proteins that eliminates binding to ARFs. In mammalian cells, this mutation disrupts the localization of human GGA proteins. Yeast Gga function was studied using an assay for carboxypeptidase Y missorting and synthetic temperature-sensitive lethality between GGAs andVPS27. Based on these assays, we conclude that non-Arf-binding yeast Gga mutants can function normally in membrane trafficking. Using green fluorescent protein-tagged Gga1p, we show that Arf interaction is not required for Gga localization to the Golgi. Truncation analysis of Gga1p and Gga2p suggests that the N-terminal VHS domain and C-terminal hinge and ear domains play significant roles in yeast Gga protein localization and function. Together, our data suggest that yeast Gga proteins function to assemble a protein complex at the late Golgi to initiate proper sorting and transport of specific cargo. Whereas mammalian GGAs must interact with ARF to localize to and function at the Golgi, interaction between yeast Ggas and Arf plays a minor role in Gga localization and function.

In developing ciliary ganglion (CG) neurons, movement of functional large-conductance (BK type) Ca2+-activated K+ ( KCa) channels to the cell surface is stimulated by the endogenous growth factors TGFβ1 and β-neuregulin-1 (NRG1). Here we show that a brief NRG1 treatment (0.5–1.5 h) mobilizes KCa channels in a post-Golgi compartment, but longer treatments (>3.5 h) mobilize KCa channels located in the endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi apparatus. Specifically, the effects of 3.5 h NRG1 treatment were completely blocked by treatments that disrupt Golgi apparatus function. These include inhibition of microtubules, or inhibition of the ADP-ribosylation factor-1 (ARF1) system by brefeldin A, by over-expression of dominant-negative ARF1, or over-expression of an ARF1 GTPase-activating protein that blocks ARF1 cycling between GTP- and GDP-bound states. These treatments had no effect on stimulation of KCa evoked by 1.5 h treatment with NRG1, indicating that short-term responses to NRG1 do not require an intact Golgi apparatus. By contrast, both the acute and sustained effects of NRG1 were inhibited by treatments that block trafficking processes that occur close to the plasma membrane. Thus mobilization of KCa was blocked by treatments than inhibit ADP-ribosylation factor-6 (ARF6) signaling, including overexpression of dominant-negative ARF6, dominant-negative ARNO, or dominant-negative phospholipase D1. TGFβ1, the effects of which on KCa are much slower in onset, is unable to selectively mobilize channels in the post-Golgi pool, and its effects on KCa are completely blocked by inhibition of microtubules, Golgi function and also by plasma membrane ARF6 and phospholipase D1 signaling.

ABSTRACT A major regulator of endocytosis and cortical F-actin is thought to be phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] present in plasma membranes. Here we report that in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, clathrin-coated membrane retrieval and dense concentrations of polymerized actin occur in restricted zones of high endocytic activity. Ultrafast-acquisition and superresolution deconvolution microscopy of cultured adipocytes expressing an enhanced green fluorescent protein- or enhanced cyan fluorescent protein (ECFP)-tagged phospholipase Cδ1 (PLCδ1) pleckstrin homology (PH) domain reveals that these zones spatially coincide with large-scale PtdIns(4,5)P2-rich plasma membrane patches (PRMPs). PRMPs exhibit lateral dimensions exceeding several micrometers, are relatively stationary, and display extensive local membrane folding that concentrates PtdIns(4,5)P2 in three-dimensional space. In addition, a higher concentration of PtdIns(4,5)P2 in the membranes of PRMPs than in other regions of the plasma membrane can be detected by quantitative fluorescence microscopy. Vesicular structures containing both clathrin heavy chains and PtdIns(4,5)P2 are revealed immediately beneath PRMPs, as is dense F actin. Blockade of PtdIns(4,5)P2 function in PRMPs by high expression of the ECFP-tagged PLCδ1 PH domain inhibits transferrin endocytosis and reduces the abundance of cortical F-actin. Membrane ruffles induced by the expression of unconventional myosin 1c were also found to localize at PRMPs. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that PRMPs organize active PtdIns(4,5)P2 signaling zones in the adipocyte plasma membrane that in turn control regulators of endocytosis, actin dynamics, and membrane ruffling.
