Lipid binding activities of GST-tagged PHs of DGKδ, -η, and -κ.
A and C, equimolar amounts (100 pmol) of PI, PI(3)P, PI(4)P, PI(5)P, PC, PI(3,4)P2, PI(4,5)P2, PI(3,4,5)P3, PA, and PS (A) and PA, PS, CL, PC, SM, Sph, PG, PE, PI, and C1P (C) were spotted onto nitrocellulose membranes as indicated, respectively. The membranes were incubated with GST-tagged PHs of DGKδ, -η, and -κ as indicated. The lipid-bound PHs were detected by immunostaining with anti-GST antibody. B and D, the blots were scanned and quantified using ImageJ software. PI(4,5)P2 (B) and PA (D) binding levels of DGKη-PH were set to 100%, respectively. The data are shown as the means ± S.D. of three independent experiments. Statistical significance compared with the PI(4,5)P2 (B) and PA (D) binding activities of DGKη-PH (* and ***) or DGKδ-PH (# and ###) was determined using Student's t test (*, p < 0.05; ***, p < 0.005; #, p < 0.05; ###, p < 0.005). Error bars represent S.E.
