A positive feedback loop between Flower and PI(4,5)P2 at periactive zones controls bulk endocytosis in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Synaptic vesicle (SV) endocytosis is coupled to exocytosis to maintain SV pool size and thus neurotransmitter release. Intense stimulation induces activity-dependent bulk endocytosis (ADBE) to recapture large quantities of SV constituents in large ...

Membrane-mediated dimerization potentiates PIP5K lipid kinase activity

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) family of lipid-modifying enzymes generate the majority of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] lipids found at the plasma membrane in eukaryotic cells.

Rab27a controls HIV-1 assembly by regulating plasma membrane levels of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During the late stages of the HIV-1 replication cycle, the viral polyprotein Pr55(Gag) is recruited to the plasma membrane (PM), where it binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) and directs HIV-1 assembly. We show that Rab27a controls the

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate optical uncaging potentiates exocytosis

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] is essential for exocytosis. Classical ways of manipulating PI(4,5)P2 levels are slower than its metabolism, making it difficult to distinguish effects of PI(4,5)P2 from those of its metabolites.

Allosteric stabilization of calcium and phosphoinositide dual binding engages several synaptotagmins in fast exocytosis

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Synaptic communication relies on the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane, which leads to neurotransmitter release. This exocytosis is triggered by brief and local elevations of intracellular Ca2+ with remarkably high sensitivity.

Structural insights on TRPV5 gating by endogenous modulators. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
TRPV5 is a transient receptor potential channel involved in calcium reabsorption. Here we investigate the interaction of two endogenous modulators with TRPV5.

Competitive PIRT and PI(4,5)P2 Interactions Modulate TRPM8 [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2016
Phosphoinositide regulator of TRP (PIRT) is a small human membrane protein that has been shown to modulate the function of specific TRP channels. PIRT has been implicated in fine-tuning the roles that TRP channels play in thermosensing, ligand activation, and pruritus.

Absence of clustering of phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate in fluid phosphatidylcholine

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] plays a key role in the modulation of actin polymerization and vesicle trafficking. These processes seem to depend on the enrichment of PI(4,5)P2 in plasma membrane domains. Here, we show that PI(4,5)P2
