Rudge and Michael J.O. Wakelam The Babraham Institute, Babraham Research Campus, Cambridge CB22 3AT, UK This SnapShot presents the reaction pathways catalyzed by the known mammalian enzymes—listed in the SnapShot “Lipid Kinases and Phosphatases” (Cell 155, December 19, 2013)—that either phosphorylate or dephosphorylate lipids. In cases in which only in vitro data have been reported, the gene encoding the enzyme is shown in italics and/or a dashed line is used to represent the reaction catalyzed. The lipid fatty acid moieties depicted in the reaction pathways in this SnapShot have been purposely simplified, and therefore they do not represent the complexity of what occurs naturally, i.e., fatty acids can vary in both length and saturation, in particular, the polyphosphoinositides generally have a polyunsaturated fatty acid moiety at the sn-2 position.

Mammalian Revised 15 February 2010 cells express several PI3P phosphatases that belong to the myotubularin family.

One mechanism that regulates 3-phosphatases that, despite having common substrates, subsume the myotubularins is the formation of heterodimers between unique functions in cells that are disparate.

Tissue biopsy is highly invasive, limited by sampling frequency and incompletely representative of intra-tumor heterogeneity. Extracellular vesicle-based liquid biopsy provides a minimally invasive alternative to diagnose and monitor tumor-specific molecular aberrations in patient biofluids. Here, we used targeted RNA sequencing to screen GBM tissue and the matched plasma of patients (n = 9) for RNA fusion transcripts. We identified two novel fusion transcripts in GBM tissue and five novel fusions in the matched plasma of GBM patients. The fusion transcripts FGFR3-TACC3 and VTI1A-TCF7L2 were detected in both tissue and matched plasma.

Each of these three signals triggers multiple molecular processes impacting key cellular properties. The activation of PLC also triggers a sequence of biochemical reactions, collectively referred to as the PI(4,5)P2 cycle that culminates in the resynthesis of this lipid. The biochemical intermediates of this cycle and the enzymes that mediate these reactions are topologically distributed across two membrane compartments, the PM and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). At the plasma membrane, the DG formed during PLC activation is rapidly converted to phosphatidic acid (PA) that needs to be transported to the ER where the machinery for its conversion into PI is localised. Conversely, PI from the ER needs to be rapidly transferred to the plasma membrane where it can be phosphorylated by lipid kinases to regenerate PI(4,5)P2.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

In some Key Words cases, their activity results in remodeling of lipids and/or allows the synthesis of other f adrenal cortex lipids. In other cases, however, and of interest to the topic of adrenal steroidogenesis, f angiotensin phospholipases produce second messengers that modify the function of a cell. In this f intracellular signaling review, the enzymatic reactions, products, and effectors of three phospholipases, f phospholipids phospholipase C, phospholipase D, and phospholipase A2, are discussed. Although f signal transduction much data have been obtained concerning the role of phospholipases C and D in regulating adrenal steroid hormone production, there are still many gaps in our knowledge. Furthermore, little is known about the involvement of phospholipase A2, Endocrinology perhaps, in part, because this enzyme comprises a large family of related enzymes of that are differentially regulated and with different functions. This review presents the evidence supporting the role of each of these phospholipases in steroidogenesis in the Journal Journal of Endocrinology adrenal cortex.
