Recognizing Phosphatidylinositol 3-Phosphate [PDF]
Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate directs the endosomal localization of regulatory proteins by binding to FYVE and PX domains. New structures of these domains complexed with the phosphoinositide headgroup show how interactions with phosphate and hydroxyl groups differentiate this lipid from all others.

Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate regulates iron transport via PI3P-binding CgPil1 protein
Summary: Iron homeostasis, which is pivotal to virulence, is regulated by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase CgVps34 in the human fungal pathogen Candida glabrata.

Phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate regulates response of cells to proteotoxic stress [PDF]
Human Nedd4 ubiquitin ligase, or its variants, inhibit yeast cell growth by disturbing the actin cytoskeleton organization and dynamics, and lead to an increase in levels of ubiquitinated proteins.

The phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate 5-kinase inhibitor apilimod blocks filoviral entry and infection. [PDF]
Phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate 5-kinase (PIKfyve) is a lipid kinase involved in endosome maturation that emerged from a haploid genetic screen as being required for Ebola virus (EBOV) infection.

Structural, thermodynamic, and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate binding properties of Phafin2. [PDF]
AbstractPhafin2 is a phosphatidylinositol 3‐phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) binding protein involved in the regulation of endosomal cargo trafficking and lysosomal induction of autophagy. Binding of Phafin2 to PtdIns(3)P is mediated by both its PH and FYVE domains.

Protocol for determination of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate levels and localization in Candida glabrata by confocal microscopy [PDF]
Summary: Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) levels govern membrane trafficking in Candida glabrata. Here, we present a confocal imaging-based protocol for PI3P localization analysis using the GFP-FYVE (found in Fab1, YOTB, Vac1, and EEA1) fusion ...

Insulin induces phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate formation through TC10 activation [PDF]
Phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PtdIns-3-P) is considered as a lipid constitutively present on endosomes; it does not seem to have a dynamic role in signalling. In contrast, phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns-3,4,5-P(3)) plays a crucial role in different signalling pathways including translocation of the glucose transporter protein ...

Time-resolved ultrastructural detection of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate. [PDF]
Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [Ptdlns(3)P] playsan important role in recruitment of various effector proteins in the endocytic and autophagic pathways. In an attempt to follow the distribution of Ptdlns(3)P at the ultrastructural level, we are using the Fab1, YOTB, Vac1, and EEA1 (FYVE) domain, which is a zinc finger motif specifically binding to ...

Understanding phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate dynamics during autophagosome biogenesis. [PDF]
Autophagosomes, the hallmark of autophagy, are double-membrane vesicles sequestering cytoplasmic components. They are generated at the phagophore assembly site (PAS), the phagophore being the precursor structure of these carriers. According to the current model, autophagosomes result from the elongation and reorganization of membranes at the PAS ...

How Atg18 and the WIPIs sense phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate. [PDF]
The key autophagic lipid sensors are Atg18 in yeast and the WIPI proteins in mammals. Atg18 and the WIPIs belong to the PROPPIN family of proteins. PROPPINs are seven- bladed β-propellers that bind to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns3P) and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,5)P2].
