Directional cell movement in response to external chemical gradients requires establishment of front rear asymmetry, which distinguishes an up-gradient protrusive leading edge, where Rac-induced F-actin polymerization takes place, and a down-gradient retractile tail ( uropod in leukocytes), where RhoA-mediated actomyosin contraction occurs. The signals that govern this spatial and functional asymmetry are not entirely understood. We show that the human type I phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase isoform beta ( PIPKI beta) has a role in organizing signaling at the cell rear. We found that PIPKI beta polarized at the uropod of neutrophil-differentiated HL60 cells. PIPKI beta localization was independent of its lipid kinase activity, but required the 83 C-terminal amino acids, which are not homologous to other PIPKI isoforms. The PIPKI beta C terminus interacted with EBP50 ( 4.1-ezrin-radixin-moesin ( ERM)-binding phosphoprotein 50), which enabled further interactions with ERM proteins and the Rho-GDP dissociation inhibitor ( RhoGDI). Knockdown of PIPKI beta with siRNA inhibited cell polarization and impaired cell directionality during dHL60 chemotaxis, suggesting a role for PIPKI beta in these processes.
