Abstract

The presence of phosphoinositide-mobilizing enzymes has been investigated in purified rat liver nuclei by radiolabelling and by probing with antibodies. A Ca(2+)-activated phosphoinositidase C (PIC) is present and was shown immunologically to be the beta 1 isoform. No gamma- or delta-PIC was found. However, only 5% of the total beta 1-PIC isoform is nuclear, with the majority being cytosolic. G alpha q and G alpha 11, the suggested physiological activators of beta 1-PIC, were not present. A PtdIns4P 5-kinase is also present, which immunologically is shown to be the C isoform. All of these nuclear inositide enzymes still remained after the removal of the nuclear envelope with Triton X-100, consistent with the concept of an intranuclear inositide cycle [Divecha, Banfic and Irvine (1991) EMBO. J. 10, 3207-3214].
