Abstract excerpt
Synapse-associated protein 102 (SAP102) and postsynaptic density-95 (PSD-95) bind to NMDA receptors through PDZ domains and cluster at excitatory postsynaptic sites called postsynaptic densities (PSD). We previously reported that PSD-95 containing mutated PDZ domains incapable of ligand binding clustered at synaptic sites with reduced efficiency. Here, we compared the synaptic clustering of the same series of...
