Inositol is an essential metabolite that serves as a precursor for structural and signaling molecules. Although perturbation of inositol homeostasis has been implicated in numerous human disorders, surprisingly little is known about how inositol levels are regulated in mammalian cells. A recent study in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) demonstrated that nuclear translocation of inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 (IP6K1) mediates repression of myo-3-P synthase (MIPS), the rate-limiting inositol biosynthetic enzyme. Binding of IP6K1 to phosphatidic acid (PA) is required for this repression. The current study was carried out to elucidate the role of PA in IP6K1 repression. The results indicate that increasing PA levels through pharmacological stimulation of phospholipase D (PLD) or direct supplementation of 18:1 PA induces nuclear translocation of IP6K1 and represses expression of MIPS protein. This effect was specific to PA synthesized in the plasma membrane, as ER-derived PA did not induce IP6K1 translocation. PLD-mediated PA synthesis can be stimulated by the master metabolic regulator 5’ AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Activation of AMPK by glucose deprivation or by treatment with the mood stabilizing drugs valproate (VPA) or lithium recapitulated IP6K1 nuclear translocation and decreased MIPS expression. This study demonstrates for the first time that modulation of PA levels through the AMPK-PLD pathway regulates IP6K1-mediated repression of MIPS. |
