title: Thrombin and phorbol ester stimulate inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate 3-phosphomonoesterase in human platelets.
abstract: Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3), which mobilizes intracellular Ca2+, is metabolized either by dephosphorylation to inositol 1,4-bisphosphate(Ins-(1,4)P2) or by phosphorylation to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4). It has been shown in vitro that Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 is also dephosphorylated by a 5-phosphomonoesterase to inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate. However, we have found that exogenous Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 is dephosphorylated to predominantly Ins(1,4,5)P3 in saponin-permeabilized platelets in the presence of KCl (40-160 mM). This inositol polyphosphate 3-phosphomonoesterase activity is independent of Ca2+ (0.1-100 microM), and it was also observed when the ionic strength of the incubation medium was increased with Na+. The action of KCl appears to be due to activation of a 3-phosphomonoesterase as well as an inhibition of the 5-phosphomonoesterase, because the dephosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 to Ins(1,4)P2 was completely inhibited by KCl. The 3-phosphomonoesterase may be regulated by a protein kinase C, since both thrombin and phorbol dibutyrate increase 3-phosphomonoesterase activity and this is inhibited by staurosporine. The formation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 from Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 reported here provides an additional pathway for the formation of the Ca2+-mobilizing second messenger in stimulated cells.
