Abstract:The molecular mechanisms that couple plasma membrane receptors/channels to specific intracellular responses, such as increased gene expression, are incompletely understood. The postsynaptic scaffolding protein Shank3 associates with Ca 2+ permeable receptors or ion channels that can activate many downstream signaling proteins, including calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII). Here, we show that Shank3/CaMKIIa complexes can be specifically co-immunoprecipitated from mouse forebrain lysates, and… Show more
“…CaMKII are coimmunoprecipitated with HA-Shank3 as shown previously (Perfitt et al, 2020b), but the 11 pS782 immunoreactivity for HA-Shank3 was specifically increased upon active CaMKII cotransfection, which was not the case for the inactive CaMKII R42K cotransfection (Fig. 2D).…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
