Abstract
Many receptors, originally grouped together as Ca2+-mobilising receptors, are now known to share an ability to couple to phospholipase C and to thereby stimulate hydrolysis of a specific class of phospholipids, the phosphoinositides. An important consequence of activation of phospholipase C is that two intracellular products are generated. One of these, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate ((1,4,5)IP3, is water-soluble and enters the cytosol; the second product, 1,2 diacylglycerol (DG), remains in the plasma membrane. In addition to their roles as intracellular signal molecules, both (1,4,5)IP3 and DG are substrates for further metabolic pathways that may either inactivate their signalling properties or perhaps generate further intracellular messengers. Clearly, by comparison with receptors that regulate adenylate cyclase activity or the permeability of ion channels, the phosphoinositide-hydrolysing receptors control a more complex signalling pathway.
