Stimulation of phospholipase D (PLD) by cell surface receptors has been observed in many cell types. We have investigated the mechanism of activation of this enzyme in undifferentiated HL60 cells. GTP analogues and Ca2+ (buffered in the nanomolar to micromolar range) were introduced into HL60 cells in the presence of the permeabilizing agent, streptolysin O. We report that guanosine 5′-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) is a potent activator of phospholipase D when Ca2+ is available at micromolar levels. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or Ca2+ alone can also stimulate PLD, but to a limited extent. The activation of PLD by GTP[S] can be partially dissociated from GTP[S]-stimulated phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C, suggesting that a G-protein may be directly involved in regulating PLD. However, maximal activation of PLD only occurs under conditions that are permissive to phospholipase C stimulation. We conclude that PLD activation is under dual control, i.e. protein kinase C- as well as G-protein-mediated regulation. Synergistic activation occurs when both pathways are simultaneously stimulated. We conclude that full activation of PLD requires protein kinase C, increased Ca2+ and a GTP-binding protein. Evidence for cytosolic components that may also be involved in obtaining full activation of PLD is also presented.

Abstract The calcitonin receptor expressed by the porcine LLC-PK1 renal tubule cells is a seven-transmembrane domain, G protein-coupled receptor activating adenylyl-cyclase and phospholipase C. Salmon calcitonin stimulated dose- and time-dependent release of the phospholipase D-dependent phosphatidylcholine product[ 3H]choline with an EC50 = 2.5 ± 0.3 × 10−8m, similar to that determined for phosphoinositide metabolism (EC50 = 4.5 ± 1.0 × 10−8m). The hormone failed to induce release of [3H]phosphocholine and[ 3H]glycerophosphocholine, ruling out activation of phosphatydilcholine-specific phospholipase C and phospholipase A. Calcitonin stimulated phosphatidic acid, a product of phospholipase D-dependent phosphatydilcholine hydrolysis. Activation of phospholipase D was confirmed by release of [3H]phosphatydilethanol, a specific and stable product in the presence of a primary alcohol. Activation of calcitonin receptor induced diacylglycerol formation, with a rapid peak followed by a prolonged increase, due to activation of phospholipase C and of phospholipase D. Consequently, the protein kinase-Cα, but not the δ isoenzyme, was cytosol-to-membrane translocated by approximately 50% after 20 min exposure to calcitonin, whereas protein kinase-Cζ, which was approximately 40% membrane-linked in unstimulated cells, translocated by approximately 19%. The human calcitonin receptor expressed by BIN-67 ovary tumor cells, although displaying higher affinity for calcitonin, failed to activate phospholipase D and protein kinase-C in response to the hormone. This receptor lacks the G protein binding consensus site due to the presence of a 48-bp cassette encoding for a 16-amino acid insert in the predicted first intracellular loop. This modification is likely to prevent the calcitonin receptor from associating to phospholipase-coupled signaling.

Protein kinase C-ϵ (PKC-ϵ) translocates to phagosomes and promotes uptake of IgG-opsonized targets. To identify the regions responsible for this concentration, green fluorescent protein (GFP)-protein kinase C-ϵ mutants were tracked during phagocytosis and in response to exogenous lipids. Deletion of the diacylglycerol (DAG)-binding ϵC1 and ϵC1B domains, or the ϵC1B point mutant ϵC259G, decreased accumulation at phagosomes and membrane translocation in response to exogenous DAG. Quantitation of GFP revealed that ϵC259G, ϵC1, and ϵC1B accumulation at phagosomes was significantly less than that of intact PKC-ϵ. Also, the DAG antagonist 1-hexadecyl-2-acetyl glycerol (EI-150) blocked PKC-ϵ translocation. Thus, DAG binding to ϵC1B is necessary for PKC-ϵ translocation. The role of phospholipase D (PLD), phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC)-γ1, and PI-PLC-γ2 in PKC-ϵ accumulation was assessed. Although GFP-PLD2 localized to phagosomes and enhanced phagocytosis, PLD inhibition did not alter target ingestion or PKC-ϵ localization. In contrast, the PI-PLC inhibitor U73122 decreased both phagocytosis and PKC-ϵ accumulation. Although expression of PI-PLC-γ2 is higher than that of PI-PLC-γ1, PI-PLC-γ1 but not PI-PLC-γ2 consistently concentrated at phagosomes. Macrophages from PI-PLC-γ2-/-mice were similar to wild-type macrophages in their rate and extent of phagocytosis, their accumulation of PKC-ϵ at the phagosome, and their sensitivity to U73122. This implicates PI-PLC-γ1 as the enzyme that supports PKC-ϵ localization and phagocytosis. That PI-PLC-γ1 was transiently tyrosine phosphorylated in nascent phagosomes is consistent with this conclusion. Together, these results support a model in which PI-PLC-γ1 provides DAG that binds to ϵC1B, facilitating PKC-ϵ localization to phagosomes for efficient IgG-mediated phagocytosis.

Phospholipase D exists in various forms that differ in their regulation but predominantly hydrolyze phosphatidylcholine. The Ca(2+)-dependent isozymes of protein kinase C regulate phospholipase D in vitro and play a major role in its control by growth factors and G protein-linked agonists in vivo. Recent studies have demonstrated that small G proteins of the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) and Rho families activate the enzyme in vitro, and evidence is accumulating that they also are involved in its control in vivo. Both types of G protein play important roles in cellular function, and the possible mechanisms by which they are activated by agonists are discussed. There is also emerging evidence of the control of phospholipase D and Rho proteins by soluble tyrosine kinases and novel serine/threonine kinases. The possible role of these kinases in agonist regulation of phospholipase D is discussed. The function of phospholipase D in cells is still poorly defined. Postulated roles of phosphatidic acid produced by phospholipase D action include the activation of Ca(2+)-independent isoforms of protein kinase C, the regulation of growth and the cytoskeleton in fibroblasts, and control of the respiratory burst in neutrophils. Another important function of phosphatidic acid is to act as a substrate for a specific phospholipase A2 to generate lysophosphatidic acid, which is becoming increasingly recognized as a major intercellular messenger. Finally, it is possible that the phospholipid changes induced in various cellular membranes by phospholipase D may per se play an important role in vesicle trafficking and other membrane-associated events.

Protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms phosphorylated phospholipase C-β1 (PLC-β1) in vitro as follows: PKCα ≫ PKCϵ; not PKCζ. PLC-β3 was not phosphorylated by PKCα. G-protein βγ subunits inhibited the PKCα phosphorylation of PLC-β1 in a concentration-dependent manner. Half-maximal inhibition occurred with 500 nM βγ. G-protein βγ subunits also antagonized the PKCα-mediated inhibition of PLC-β1 enzymic activity. PKCα, in turn, inhibited the stimulation of PLC-β1 activity by βγ. There was little effect of PKCα on the stimulation of PLC-β1 by αq/11–guanosine 5′[γ-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]). These findings demonstrate that G protein βγ subunits antagonize PKCα regulation of PLC-β1. Thus βγ subunits might have a role in modulating the negative feedback regulation of this signalling system by PKC.

The tyrosine kinase inhibitors ST271, ST638 and erbstatin inhibited phospholipase D (PLD) activity in human neutrophils stimulated by fMet-Leu-Phe, platelet-activating factor and leukotriene B4. These compounds did not inhibit phorbol ester-stimulated PLD, indicating that they do not inhibit PLD per se, but probably act at a site between the receptor and the phospholipase. In contrast, the protein kinase C inhibitor Ro-31-8220 inhibited phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate- but not fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated PLD activity, arguing against the involvement of protein kinase C in the receptor-mediated activation of PLD. ST271 did not inhibit Ins(1,4,5)P3 generation, but did inhibit protein tyrosine phosphorylation stimulated by fMet-Leu-Phe. The phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor pervanadate increased tyrosine phosphorylation and stimulated PLD. These results suggest that tyrosine kinase activity is involved in receptor coupling to PLD but not to PtdIns(4,5)P2-specific phospholipase C in the human neutrophil.
