Phosphatidylinositol 4 Phosphate Regulates Targeting of Clathrin Adaptor AP-1 Complexes to the Golgi

TL;DR: It is proposed that PI4KIIalpha establishes the Golgi's unique lipid-defined organelle identity by generating PI(4)P-rich domains that specify the docking of the AP-1 coat machinery.
Journal ArticleDOI

New caged coumarin fluorophores with extraordinary uncaging cross sections suitable for biological imaging applications.

TL;DR: A new class of caged coumarin fluorophores is designed and synthesized, which displayed more than 200-fold fluorescence enhancement after UV photolysis and the mechanistic study, together with the two-photon uncaging data, suggested that the cou marin moiety serves as an antenna to enhance the light harvesting efficiency of the coumarins cage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Type II Phosphatidylinositol 4-Kinase β Is a Cytosolic and Peripheral Membrane Protein That Is Recruited to the Plasma Membrane and Activated by Rac-GTP

TL;DR: It is concluded that PI4KIIα and PI4kIIβ may have partially overlapping, but not identical, functions in how phosphoinositide cascades are propagated in cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of PSGL-1 interactions with L-selectin, P-selectin, and E-selectin. Role of human fucosyltransferase-IV and -VII. Vol. 280 (2005) 5378–5390

TL;DR: It is confirmed that core-2 O-glycans attached to Thr-57 play a critical role in supporting L- and P-selectin-dependent rolling on PSGL-1 and revealed that additional binding sites support >75% of E- selectin-mediated rolling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypertonic Stress Increases Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Bisphosphate Levels by Activating PIP5KIβ

TL;DR: The results establish a cause-and-effect relation between PIP5KIβ dephosphorylation, lipid kinase activation, and PIP2 increase in cells, which can orchestrate multiple downstream responses, including the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton.
