Cyclic oscillations in the level of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate in phagosomes, regulated by two phosphoinositide kinases and one phosphatase, are critical for phagosome maturation and degradation of apoptotic cells. Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) is a signaling molecule important for many membrane trafficking events, including phagosome maturation. The level of PtdIns(3)P on phagosomes oscillates in two waves during phagosome maturation. However, the physiological significance of such oscillation remains unknown. Currently, the Class III PI 3-kinase (PI3K) Vps34 is regarded as the only kinase that produces PtdIns(3)P in phagosomal membranes. We report here that, in the nematode C. elegans, the Class II PI3K PIKI-1 plays a novel and crucial role in producing phagosomal PtdIns(3)P. PIKI-1 is recruited to extending pseudopods and nascent phagosomes prior to the appearance of PtdIns(3)P in a manner dependent on the large GTPase dynamin (DYN-1). PIKI-1 and VPS-34 act in sequence to provide overlapping pools of PtdIns(3)P on phagosomes. Inactivating both piki-1 and vps-34 completely abolishes the production of phagosomal PtdIns(3)P and disables phagosomes from recruiting multiple essential maturation factors, resulting in a complete arrest of apoptotic-cell degradation. We have further identified MTM-1, a PI 3-phosphatase that antagonizes the activities of PIKI-1 and VPS-34 by down-regulating PtdIns(3)P on phagosomes. Remarkably, persistent appearance of phagosomal PtdIns(3)P, as a result of inactivating mtm-1, blocks phagosome maturation. Our findings demonstrate that the proper oscillation pattern of PtdIns(3)P on phagosomes, programmed by the coordinated activities of two PI3Ks and one PI 3-phosphatase, is critical for phagosome maturation. They further shed light on how the temporally controlled reversible phosphorylation of phosphoinositides regulates the progression of multi-step cellular events. During animal development and in adulthood many cells are programmed to die by an active process called apoptosis. These dead or dying apoptotic cells are swiftly taken up by scavenger cells into membrane-bound compartments—phagosomes—where they are subsequently degraded when other intracellular organelles containing digestive enzymes fuse with phagosomes—a process called phagosome maturation. Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells is important for tissue remodeling in development and to prevent harmful inflammatory and autoimmune responses. In nematode worms—a model organism in which to study apoptosis—phagosome maturation is accompanied by two waves of the signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) in this compartment: one that forms soon after the formation of the phagosome and lasts for 10–15 minutes, and a second, weaker one 10 minutes later that lasts until the apoptotic cell is fully digested. In this study, we investigated the mechanism that regulates the timing and length of these two waves. We found that they are established by the sequential and combined action of three enzymes: two phosphoinositide 3-kinases, which add a phosphate group to the 3′ site of PtdIns, and one phosphoinositide 3-phosphatase, which removes it. We showed that inactivation of both kinases depleted phagosomes of PtdIns(3)P and resulted in the arrest of phagosome maturation and degradation of apoptotic cells. In addition, the timely turnover of PtdIns(3)P catalyzed by the phosphatase was critical for the step-wise progress of phagosome maturation. Our findings suggest that reversible phosphorylation of phophoinositides, catalyzed by distinct sets of kinases and phosphatases, might be a general mechanism to drive multi-step intracellular membrane trafficking events.
