Inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) is a soluble messenger, which acts by cooperatively releasing Ca2+into the cytosol from non-mitochondrial stores, probably by activating Ca2+-permeable channels. We demonstrate that submicromolar concentrations of IP3can directly open the Ca2+-permeable diphtheria toxin channel, and that this occurs by IP3binding to a specific site on the toxin protein. This provides a model for IP3-induced Ca2+release and suggests that IP3-induced channel opening may play a role in diphtheria intoxication and in protein translocation across membranes.
