title: Regulation of polyphosphoinositide synthesis in cardiac membranes.
abstract: The relative distribution of phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PIP) kinase activities in enriched cardiac sarcolemma (SL), sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), and mitochondrial fractions was investigated. PI and PIP kinase activities were assayed by measuring 32P incorporation into PIP and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) from endogenous and exogenous PI in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP. PI and PIP kinase activities were present in SL, SR, and mitochondrial fractions prepared from atria and ventricles although the highest activities were found in SL. A similar membrane distribution was found for PI kinase activity measured in the presence of detergent and exogenous PI. PI and PIP kinase activities were detectable in the cytosol providing exogenous PI and PIP and Triton X-100 were present. Further studies focused on characterizing the properties and regulation of PI and PIP kinase activities in ventricular SL. Alamethacin, a membrane permeabilizing antibiotic, increased 32P incorporation into PIP and PIP2 4-fold. PI and PIP kinase activities were Mg2+ dependent and plateaued within 15-20 min at 25 degrees C. Exogenous PIP and PIP2 (0.1 mM) had no effect on PIP and PIP2 labeling in SL in the absence of Triton X-100 but inhibited PI kinase activity in the presence of exogenous PI and Triton X-100. Apparent Km's of ATP for PI and PIP kinase were 133 and 57 microM, respectively. Neomycin increased PIP kinase activity 2- to 3-fold with minor effects on PI kinase activity. Calmidazolium and trifluoperazine activated PI kinase activity 5- to 20-fold and completely inhibited PIP kinase activity. Quercetin inhibited PIP kinase 66% without affecting PI kinase activity. NaF and guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) had no effect on PI and PIP kinase activities, indicating that these enzymes were not modulated by G proteins. The probability that PIP and PIP2 synthesis in cardiac sarcolemma is regulated by product inhibition and phospholipase C was discussed.
