Abstract excerpt
Rim1, a brain-specific Rab3a-binding protein, localizes to the presynaptic cytomatrix and plays an important role in synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity. Rim2, a homologous protein, is more ubiquitously expressed and is found in neuroendocrine cells as well as in brain. Both Rim1 and Rim2 contain multiple domains, including an N-terminal zinc finger, which in Rim1 strongly enhances secretion in...
