Iron triggers TvPI4P5K proteostasis and Arf-mediated cell membrane trafficking to regulate PIP2 signaling crucial for multiple pathogenic activities of the parasitic protozoan Tric... by Kuan-Yi Wu, Yen-Ju Chen, Shu-Fan Lin, Hong-Ming Hsu

“…Our findings underscore the key upstream regulation mechanisms of the PIP2 signaling, orchestrating the interplay between TvArf220-PIP2-calcium signaling and downstream actin cytoskeleton-driven pathogenicity in T. vaginalis.IMPORTANCETrichomonas vaginalis actin cytoskeleton-centric pathogenicity is regulated by the phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphates (PIP2)-triggered calcium signaling cascade in response to environmental iron, though the detailed mechanism by which iron modulates PIP2 signaling remains unclear. …”
