Ligand binding of PDZ domains has various roles in the synaptic clustering of SAP102 and PSD-95.
Synapse-associated protein 102 (SAP102) and postsynaptic density-95 (PSD-95) bind to NMDA receptors through PDZ domains and cluster at excitatory postsynaptic sites called postsynaptic densities (PSD). We previously reported that PSD-95 containing mutated PDZ domains incapable of ligand binding clustered at synaptic sites with reduced efficiency. Here, we compared the synaptic clustering of the...
متن کاملTrafficking of the NMDAR2B Receptor Subunit Distal Cytoplasmic Tail from Endoplasmic Reticulum to the Synapse
NMDA receptor NR2A/B subunits have PDZ-binding domains on their extreme C-termini that are known to interact with the PSD-95 family and other PDZ proteins. We explore the interactions between PSD-95 family proteins and the NR2A/B cytoplasmic tails, and the consequences of these interactions, from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through delivery to the synapse in primary rat hippocampal and corti...
متن کاملThermodynamic basis for promiscuity and selectivity in protein-protein interactions: PDZ domains, a case study.
Like other protein-protein interaction domains, PDZ domains are involved in many key cellular processes. These processes often require that specific multiprotein complexes be assembled, a task that PDZ domains accomplish by binding to specific peptide motifs in target proteins. However, a growing number of experimental studies show that PDZ domains (like other protein-protein interaction domain...
متن کاملSAP102 mediates synaptic clearance of NMDA receptors.
Membrane-associated guanylate kinases (MAGUKs) are the major family of scaffolding proteins at the postsynaptic density. The PSD-MAGUK subfamily, which includes PSD-95, PSD-93, SAP97, and SAP102, is well accepted to be primarily involved in the synaptic anchoring of numerous proteins, including N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs). Notably, the synaptic targeting of NMDARs depends on the bin...
متن کاملSubunit-Specific Regulation of N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) Receptor Trafficking by SAP102 Splice Variants
Synapse-associated protein 102 (SAP102) is a scaffolding protein abundantly expressed early in development that mediates glutamate receptor trafficking during synaptogenesis. Mutations in human SAP102 have been reported to cause intellectual disability, which is consistent with its important role during early postnatal development. SAP102 contains PDZ, SH3 and guanylate kinase (GK)-like domains...
