Activation of Src and release of intracellular calcium by phosphatidic acid during Xenopus laevis fertilization

Abstract: We report a new step in the fertilization in Xenopus laevis which has been found to involve activation of Src tyrosine kinase to stimulate phospholipase C-γ (PLC- γ) which increases inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) to release intracellular calcium ([Ca]i). Molecular species analysis and mass measurements suggested that sperm activate phospholipase D (PLD) to elevate phosphatidic acid (PA). We now report that PA mass increased 2.7 fold by 1 minute after insemination and inhibition of PA production by two meth… Show more

“…In Xenopus fertilization, sperm activate phospholipase D1b (PLD1b) to produce PA which then binds and activates Src tyrosine kinase (Bates et al, 2014). A new model for Src activation through PA binding to the SH4, SH3 and a unique domain is presented.…”

“…As two different PLD inhibitors fully inhibited the increase of PA and Src activation at fertilization, but only partially inhibited the increase in IP 3 mass and [Ca +2 ] i release (the latter, by ~87%), sperm activate a different pathway that induces a delayed, weak [Ca +2 ] i release (Bates et al, 2014). In addition, multiple studies with tyrosine kinase inhibitors or inhibition of PLCγ activation with SH2 peptides do not eliminate the [Ca +2 ] i increase induced by sperm (Runft et al, 1999).…”
