Two mutations preventing PDZ-protein interactions of GluR1 have opposite effects on synaptic plasticity

Boehm, J. S., Ehrlich, I., Hsieh, H., Malinow, R. (September 2006) Two mutations preventing PDZ-protein interactions of GluR1 have opposite effects on synaptic plasticity. Learn Mem, 13 (5). pp. 562-5. ISSN 1072-0502 (Print)

Abstract

The regulated trafficking of GluR1 contributes significantly to synaptic plasticity, but studies addressing the function of the GluR1 C-terminal PDZ-ligand domain in this process have produced conflicting results. Here, we resolve this conflict by showing that apparently similar C-terminal mutations of the GluR1 PDZ-ligand domain result in opposite physiological phenotypes during activity- and CamKII-induced synaptic plasticity.
