Synaptic homeostasis requires the membrane-proximal carboxy tail of GluA2 [PDF]
Significance AMPA-type glutamate receptors are known to play critical roles in both basal synaptic transmission and acute forms of plasticity, such as long-term potentiation and long-term depression, but less is known about their role in ...

Hippocampus-specific deficiency in RNA editing of GluA2 in Alzheimer's disease
Neurobiology of Aging, 2014Adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is a base recoding process within precursor messenger RNA, catalyzed by members of the adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) family. A notable example occurs at the Q/R site of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid glutamate receptor subunit GluA2.

Functional Roles of the Edited Isoform of GluA2 in GluA2-Containing AMPA Receptor Channels
Biochemistry, 2017GluA2R is the edited isoform at the Q/R site of the AMPA receptor GluA2 subunit. In vivo, GluA2R assembles with other AMPA receptor subunits into a high-conductance, tetrameric complex. Here we study the functional role of GluA2R in the context of GluA1/2R and GluA2Q/2R heteromeric receptors, using whole-cell recording and a laser-pulse photolysis ...

Tyrosine phosphorylation of the AMPA receptor subunit GluA2 gates homeostatic synaptic plasticity
Significance Throughout an organism’s life span, neural circuits mediate sensory and cognitive processing via synaptic plasticity, which involves synapse-specific Hebbian plasticity and network-level homeostatic plasticity. Synaptic strengthening and weakening are finely tuned by changes in postsynaptic α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4 ...

Lithium increases synaptic GluA2 in hippocampal neurons by elevating the δ-catenin protein [PDF]
Lithium (Li+) is a drug widely employed for treating bipolar disorder, however the mechanism of action is not known. Here we study the effects of Li+ in cultured hippocampal neurons on a synaptic complex consisting of δ-catenin, a protein associated with cadherins whose mutation is linked to autism, and GRIP, an AMPA receptor (AMPAR) scaffolding ...
