Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) is a low-abundance membrane lipid essential for plasma membrane function1,2. In plants, mutations in phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) 5-kinases (PIP5K) suggest that PI(4,5)P2 production is involved in development, immunity and reproduction3-5. However, phospholipid synthesis is highly intricate6. It is thus likely that steady-state depletion of PI(4,5)P2 triggers confounding indirect effects. Furthermore, inducible tools available in plants allow PI(4,5)P2 to increase7-9 but not decrease, and no PIP5K inhibitors are available. Here, we introduce iDePP (inducible depletion of PI(4,5)P2 in plants), a system for the inducible and tunable depletion of PI(4,5)P2 in plants in less than three hours. Using this strategy, we confirm that PI(4,5)P2 is critical for various aspects of plant development, including root growth, root-hair elongation and organ initiation. We show that PI(4,5)P2 is required to recruit various endocytic proteins, including AP2-µ, to the plasma membrane, and thus to regulate clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Finally, we find that inducible PI(4,5)P2 perturbation impacts the dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton as well as microtubule anisotropy. Together, we propose that iDePP is a simple and efficient genetic tool to test the importance of PI(4,5)P2 in given cellular or developmental responses, and also to evaluate the importance of this lipid in protein localization.
