A protein that appears in postsynaptic protein agglomerations has been found to be crucial to their formation. The Kobe University discovery identifies a new key player for synaptic function and sheds ...

Ubiquitin modifications alter protein function and stability, thereby regulating cell homeostasis and viability, particularly under stress. Ischemic stroke induces protein ubiquitination at the ...

The multifunctional protein gephyrin clusters inhibitory receptors at the postsynaptic membrane in the CNS. Gephyrin has been proposed to form the inhibitory postsynaptic density by liquid-liquid ...

A Kobe University research team identified a protein, called “FAM81A,” that has been showing up in the majority of studies on the “postsynaptic density” but has remained uncharacterized so far. In a ...
