Olfactory receptor neurons in the lobster express a nonselective
cation channel that is activated by intracellular
Na+ and carries a substantial part of the
depolarizing receptor current. Here, we show that phosphatidylinositol
4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] and phosphatidylinositol
4-phosphate [PI(4)P] applied to the intracellular face of cell-free
patches activate the channel in the absence of Na+
and that antibodies against the respective phospholipids irreversibly inhibit the evoked activity. Further, we show that applying
PI(4,5)P2 or PI(4)P in the presence of
Na+ decreases the concentration of
Na+ required to activate the channel from an
EC50 of 74 to 22 mM for
PI(4,5)P2 and to 29 mM for PI(4)P,
respectively. Na+-gated channel activity was
irreversibly inhibited by monoclonal antibodies against
PI(4,5)P2 and PI(4)P in patches never exposed to exogenous
phosphatidylinositols, suggesting that endogenous inositol
phospholipids are required for the activation of the channel by
intracellular Na+. Our findings suggest that
PI(4,5)P2 and/or PI(4)P may serve as intracellular
signaling molecules in these primary sensory neurons and provide a
general mechanism to explain how the sensitivity of
Na+-gated channels to Na+ could
be much greater in intact cells than in excised membrane patches.
