Abstract
Pleckstrin homology (PH) domains are phosphoinositide (PI)-binding modules that target proteins to membrane surfaces. Here we define a family of PH domain proteins, including Tiam1 and ArhGAP9, that demonstrates specificity for PI(4,5)P(2), as well as for PI(3,4,5)P(3) and PI(3,4)P(2), the products of PI 3-kinase. These PH domain family members utilize a non-canonical phosphoinositide binding pocket related to that employed by beta-spectrin. Crystal structures of the PH domain of ArhGAP9 in complex with the headgroups of Ins(1,3,4)P(3), Ins(1,4,5)P(3), and Ins(1,3,5)P(3) reveal how two adjacent phosphate positions in PI(3,4)P(2), PI(4,5)P(2), and PI(3,4,5)P(3) are accommodated through flipped conformations of the bound phospholipid. We validate the non-canonical site of phosphoinositide interaction by showing that binding pocket mutations, which disrupt phosphoinositide binding in vitro, also disrupt membrane localization of Tiam1 in cells. We posit that the diversity in PI interaction modes displayed by PH domains contributes to their versatility of use in biological systems.

FIGURE 7. Stereographic view of AG9 PH domain binding to Ins(1,4,5)P[3] (A), Ins(1,3,4)P[3] (B), and Ins(1,3,5)P[3] (C). Experimental F[o] - F[c] electron density map prior to modeling of bound ligand is shown as a wire mesh contoured at 2.5 sigma. PI-interacting residues are shown as stick models with hydrogen bonds indicated by dashed lines. Phosphate positions of the inositol ring are labeled. Water molecules are indicated by red spheres. In C only a single phosphate moiety of the Ins(1,3,5)P3 ligand is modeled.

FIGURE 8. Superimposed stereographic view of the AG9^145 and AG9^134 PI binding pockets in complex with Ins(1,4,5)P[3] and Ins(1,3,4)P[3], respectively. The PH domain of AG9^145 is colored cyan with bound Ins(1,4,5)P[3] in purple; the AG9^134 PH domain is colored green with bound Ins(1,3,4)P[3] in pink. Orientation of bound PI(4,5)P[2] and PI(3,4)P[2] are related by a rotation of 180° about the P1-P4 axis of the inositol ring.
