Co-expression of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 1alpha with homer-1a/Vesl-1S increases the cell surface expression of the receptor.
Homer-1a is a 30 kDa protein that forms part of a family of conserved Homer-related proteins that interact with the C-termini of the metabotropic glutamate receptors mGluR1alpha and mGluR5a. Analysis of HEK-293 cells by PCR showed that they contained mRNA coding for members of the Homer family with the predominant form being Homer-1b, which is consistent with the immunochemical analysis of thes...
متن کاملHomer-1c/Vesl-1L modulates the cell surface targeting of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 1alpha: evidence for an anchoring function.
Homer-1c/Vesl-1L is a 48-kDa protein that forms part of a family of conserved Homer-related proteins that interact with the C-termini of the metabotropic glutamate receptors mGluR1alpha and mGluR5. In order to examine the function of Homer-1c, HEK-293 cells have been transfected with mGluR1alpha, Homer-1c, and both proteins together. When cells were transfected with both proteins, biotinylation...
متن کاملSustained Activity of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor: Homer, Arrestin, and Beyond
When activated, metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGlus) exert long-lasting changes within the glutamatergic synapses. One mechanism is a tonic effect of downstream signal transduction pathways via sustained activation of mGlu itself. Like many other G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), mGlu can exist in a constitutively active state, which persists agonist independently. In this paper, we revi...
متن کاملP6: Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor-Dependent Role in the Formation of Long-Term Potentiation
Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a reflection of synaptic plasticity that induced by specific patterns of synaptic activity and has an important role in learning and memory. The first clue of the potential role of glutamate receptors in LTP was in 1991 with the observation that the mGluR agonists 1-amino-1, 3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid (ACPD), increased LTP. Studies have shown that ACPD induc...
متن کاملActin-binding protein alpha-actinin-1 interacts with the metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5b and modulates the cell surface expression and function of the receptor.
Receptors for neurotransmitters require scaffolding proteins for membrane microdomain targeting and for regulating receptor function. Using a yeast two-hybrid screen, alpha-actinin-1, a major F-actin cross-linking protein, was identified as a binding partner for the C-terminal domain of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5b (mGlu(5b) receptor). Co-expression, co-immunoprecipitation, and pull-...
