Lipid binding activities and subcellular localization of DsRed monomer-tagged DGKη-PH(K74A) and DGKη-PH(R85A) expressed in COS-7 cells. A, expression of DsRed monomer alone, DsRed monomer-DGKη-PH(K74A), and DsRed monomer-DGKη-PH(R85A) was confirmed by Western blotting. B, equimolar amounts (100 pmol) of PI, PI(3)P, PI(4)P, PI(5)P, PC, PI(3,4)P2, and PI(4,5)P2 were spotted onto nitrocellulose membranes as indicated. The membranes were incubated with DsRed monomer alone, DsRed monomer-DGKη-PH(K74A), and DsRed monomer-DGKη-PH(R85A). Lipid-bound DsRed monomer-tagged proteins were detected by immunostaining with anti-RFP antibody. Even after much longer exposure than that in Fig. 4, spots of PI(4,5)P2 were not detected. DsRed monomer-DGKη-PH(K74A) (C) and DsRed monomer-DGKη-PH(R85A) (D) were co-expressed with AcGFP-PLCδ1-PH in COS-7 cells. After 48 h of transfection, the cells were incubated with 500 mm sorbitol in DMEM for 30 min. The cells were fixed with 3.7% formaldehyde and imaged by inverted confocal laser microscopy (FV1000-D). Representative data of three independent experiments are shown. Scale bars, 20 μm.
