Intrinsic fluctuations of phosphoinositol levels are involved in the progression of the naturally synchronous cell cycle in Physarum polycephalum.

Abstract:

:Using [3H]myo-inositol incorporation, changes in phosphoinositol (PI) metabolism at different cell cycle stages in the myxomycete Physarum polycephalum were examined by column chromatography. Two base levels for the inositol trisphosphate (IP3) fraction were determined: a low one for S-phase and a higher one for G2 phase. Two transient increases of IP3 were also observed, one in S-phase, 70 min after mitosis (no G1 phase in the Physarum cell cycle) and another in G2 phase, 90 min before mitosis. It is concluded that the fluctuations in IP3 levels reflect endogenous events in the cell cycle of Physarum, because they occurred in the absence of any exogenous signals. Pulse treatment with Li+ (10 mM) at the points of the cell cycle, characterized by the IP3 transients, had opposite effects: in early S-phase it caused an acceleration while in late G2 phase it caused a prolongation of the cell cycle duration. The pattern of Li(+)-induced changes in PI turnover is also antagonistic: in most cases the IP3 level would decrease, however, Li+ prevents the cell cycle-dependent reduction in IP3 concentration when applied at early S-phase. The possible implications of the autogenous fluctuations in the IP3 fraction on the progression of the cell cycle through several distinct checkpoints are discussed.
