Pleckstrin homology (PH) domains all contain a seven-standard b-sandwich that allows binding to various species of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) phosphates.{15263} Most PH domains bind to PtdIns phosphates with weak affinity and low specificity. However, a small subclass binds specifically and with high-affinity for certain PtdIns phosphates. PtdIns-(4,5)-P2 Binding Protein contains a highly specific PH domain that recognizes and binds PtdIns-(4,5)-P2 (see Figure 1).{15107} PtdIns phosphates represent a small percentage of total membrane phospholipids. However, they play a critical role in the generation and transmission of cellular signals.{4096, 8344} PtdIns-(4,5)-P2 can be phosphorylated by phosphoinositide (PI)-3-kinase to make PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3 which initiates an intricate signaling cascade that has been implicated in cancer{12235} PtdIns-(4,5)-P2 binding protein can be used in in vitro assays for the detection of PtdIns-(4,5)-P2 in PI3-kinase and PTEN phosphatase assays.
