Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Bisphosphate Functions as a Second Messenger that Regulates Cytoskeleton–Plasma Membrane Adhesion

TL;DR: This study suggests that plasma membrane PIP2 controls dynamic membrane functions and cell shape by locally increasing and decreasing the adhesion between the actin-based cortical cytoskeleton and the plasma membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sac1-like domains of yeast sac1, inp52, and inp53 and of human synaptojanin encode polyphosphoinositide phosphatases

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PPIPase activity is a key regulator of membrane trafficking and actin cytoskeleton organization and suggest signaling roles for phosphoinositides other than PI 4,5-bisphosphate in these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pleiotropic Alterations in Lipid Metabolism in Yeast sac1 Mutants: Relationship to “Bypass Sec14p” and Inositol Auxotrophy

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that accumulation of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate in sac1 mutants is insufficient to effect bypassSec14p, and a model in which phospholipase D activity contributes to generation of DAG that, in turn, effects bypass Sec14p is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specificity determinants in phosphoinositide dephosphorylation: crystal structure of an archetypal inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase

TL;DR: Based on the structure of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase domain of SPsynaptojanin, a series of mutants are described that exhibit altered substrate specificity providing general determinants for substrate recognition.
