PTEN and PLCXD counteract endosomal PIP2 accumulation in the absence of OCRL. (A) Schematic of PtdIns(4,5)P2 metabolism: OCRL and PLC directly decrease PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels, while PTEN canonically increases PtdIns(4,5)P2 by dephosphorylation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. (B) In healthy cells, OCRL and PTEN–PLCXD prevent PtdIns(4,5)P2 accumulation on endosomes. (C) OCRL-deficient cells accumulate PtdIns(4,5)P2 on endosomes. (D) Activation of the PTEN–PLCXD pathway by exogenous PTEN or PLCXD activation restores normal endosomal PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels.
