Two widely expressed mammalian phosphatidylcholine (PC)-specific phospholipases D (PLD), PLD1 and PLD2, have been identified. Recombinantly expressed PLD2 has high basal activity and is insensitive to GTP-binding protein activators of PLD1 [Colley, W. C., et al. (1997) Curr. Biol. 7, 191-201]. To investigate the regulation of PLD2 we isolated PLD2, from mouse brain by immunoaffinity chromatography. The native and recombinant proteins have indistinguishable properties: PLD2 is potently activated by phosphoinositides with a vicinal 4,5-phosphate pair but is not stimulated by guanosine 5'-O-(3-thio triphosphate)-activated ADP-ribosylation factor-1, Rho family GTP-binding proteins, or protein kinases C-alpha, or -beta(1). We used recombinant PLD2 in a reconstitution assay to search for regulators in cell and tissue extracts. Bovine brain contains a heat-stable protein factor that inhibits PLD2 activity in vitro. This factor was purified to homogeneity and identified as a mixture of alpha- and beta-synucleins by microsequencing and Western blotting. Recombinantly expressed alpha- and beta-synucleins inhibit PLD2 activity in vitro (K-0.5 10 nM). Inhibition is not overcome by the protein or lipid activators of PLD1. Synucleins have been implicated in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases. Our findings suggest that inhibition of PLD2 may be a function of synucleins. Modulation of PLD2 activity by synucleins may play a role in some aspects of the pathophysiologies that characterize these neurodegenerative diseases.
