Subcellular distribution of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase D in rat liver

Abstract: Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-hydrolysing enzymes have been described in many mammalian tissues and body fluids; however, their site(s) of action and in vivo functions have remained unclear. In order to identify a possible intracellular site of GPI hydrolysis, we studied the subcellular distribution of GPI-hydrolysing activity in rat liver. We found that purified fractions from rat liver hydrolysed the GPI moieties of two GPI-anchored proteins with the specificity of a phospholipase D. This GPI-specific p… Show more

“…The endosome becomes increasingly acidic20 and fuses with a lysosome21. In the lysosome FA is released22 and lysosomal GPI-specific phospholipase D23 cleaves off the GPI anchor on FRα, which is then set free. Free FRα translocates into the nucleus where it binds to cis -regulatory elements of target genes and directly activates transcription.…”

“…This study is the first study to suggest that endogenous GPI-PLD plays a role in the release of this antigen from colorectal carcinoma cells. The exact GPI-PLD cell location and the GPI-anchor cutting location that is either cell-level or intracellular is still unknown [29,37,38]. Therefore, CEA is either free from cell surface or intracellular, and is unclear.…”

“…GPI-PLD activity is abundant in serum, cerebrospinal fluid (40)(41)(42), and synovial fluid and is secreted by activated neutrophils (43). The activity has also been described as enriched in lysosomal fractions of bovine liver (44). GPI-PLD is taken up into cells from culture medium and proteolyzed to smaller fragments, a process that is inhibited by the lysosomotropic agent chloroquine (45), which raises the possibility of lysosomal targeting.…”
