Function |
Regulates the trafficking and gating properties of AMPA- selective glutamate receptors (AMPARs). Promotes their targeting to the cell membrane and synapses and modulates their gating properties by regulating their rates of activation, deactivation and desensitization. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20805473}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=Also localizes to the cell membrane of extrasynaptic sites (dendritic shafts, spines of pyramidal cells). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expression is up-regulated in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of patients with schizophrenia (postmortem brain study). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23103966}.
