Disease relevance of Homer1

 

Psychiatry related information on Homer1

  • Signaling through group I mGluRs is regulated, in part, by Homer proteins, and it was found that the blunting of group I mGluR-induced glutamate release and motor activity after repeated cocaine was associated with a reduction in Homer1b/c protein that was selective for the medial nucleus accumbens [5].
 

High impact information on Homer1

  • This dynamic transcriptional control suggests that Homer mediates a novel cellular mechanism that regulates metabotropic glutamate signalling [6].
  • The Homer gene is also distinct from members of the PDZ family in that its expression is regulated as an immediate early gene and is dynamically responsive to physiological synaptic activity, particularly during cortical development [6].
  • Here we report a novel dendritic protein, Homer, that contains a single, PDZ-like domain and binds specifically to the carboxy terminus of phosphoinositide-linked metabotropic glutamate receptors [6].
  • PI3 kinase enhancer-Homer complex couples mGluRI to PI3 kinase, preventing neuronal apoptosis [7].
  • We demonstrate physiologic binding of PIKE-L to Homer, an adaptor protein known to link metabotropic glutamate receptors to multiple intracellular targets including the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) [7].
 

Biological context of Homer1

 

Anatomical context of Homer1

 

Associations of Homer1 with chemical compounds

  • The postsynaptic scaffold proteins ProSAP1/Shank2 and Homer1 are associated with glutamate receptor complexes at rat retinal synapses [16].
  • Actin depolymerization by latrunculin A reduced the synaptic localization of PSD-Zip45, shank, and F-actin but not of PSD-95 or GKAP [17].
  • These data indicate that the expression of behavioural sensitization arises in part from a reduction in Homer1 gene products in the accumbens, while the development of sensitization requires stimulation of AMPA/kainate receptors [11].
  • Structure of the Homer EVH1 domain-peptide complex reveals a new twist in polyproline recognition [18].
  • Here, we present evidence that Homer proteins form a physical tether linking mGluRs with the inositol trisphosphate receptors (IP3R) [19].
 

Physical interactions of Homer1

  • We have determined the crystal structure of the Homer EVH1 domain complexed with a peptide from mGluR (TPPSPF) [18].
 

Regulatory relationships of Homer1

 

Other interactions of Homer1

  • Dynamin 3 is a component of the postsynapse, where it interacts with mGluR5 and Homer [8].
  • Here we report additional members of the Vesl/Homer family of proteins, Vesl-1L and Vesl-2 [25].
  • The double-labeling experiments revealed a high rate of colocalization of ProSAP1/Shank2 with Homer1 and PSD-95, and little colocalization with GRIP [16].
  • In this study we examined whether the expression and loss of behavioral signs of neuropathic pain were associated with changes in the content of the scaffolding proteins Homer and Shank in the post-synaptic density (PSD) of the spinal dorsal horn [26].
  • The EVH1 domain and extreme C-terminal leucine zipper motif of PSD-Zip45 were also critical for these events [17].
