Phosphatidic acid-producing enzymes regulating the synaptic vesicle cycle: Role for PLD?
Advances in Biological Regulation 2018 January
In cortical and hippocampal neurons of the mammalian brain, the synaptic vesicle cycle is a series of steps that tightly regulate exo- and endocytosis of vesicles. Many proteins contribute to this regulation, but lipids have recently emerged as critical regulators as well. Of all the many lipid signaling molecules, phosphatidic acid is important to the physical processes of membrane fusion. Therefore, the lipid-metabolizing enzymes that produce phosphatidic acid are vital to the regulation of the cycle. Our lab is particularly interested in the potential regulatory mechanisms and neuronal roles of two phosphatidic acid-producing enzymes: diacylglycerol kinase theta (DGKθ) and phospholipase D (PLD). We recently discovered a regulatory role of DGKθ on evoked endocytosis (Goldschmidt et al., 2016). In addition to this enzyme, studies implicate PLD1 in neurotransmission, although its precise role is of some debate. Altogether, the production of phosphatidic acid by these enzymes offer an interesting and novel pathway for the regulation of the synaptic vesicle cycle.
