It is mainly expressed in the central nervous system especially in postsynaptic densities of dendritic spines in neurons. SHANK2 interacts with several synaptic proteins to organize the synaptic complexes that are important for neurotransmission. It helps in maintaining the structural integrity and signaling functions of synapses.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nSHANK2 provides key links in postsynaptic density structures. It interacts with other proteins like neuroligins and NMDA receptors to form a complex signaling network. This complex is involved in synaptic signal transduction which is critical for neural plasticity and communication between neurons. Through its role in synapses SHANK2 influences the strength and modulation of synaptic transmission.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nSHANK2 plays a significant role in neurotransmitter signaling pathways such as glutamatergic signaling. It directly interacts with proteins like Homer and mGluR that are critical to these pathways. These interactions influence synaptic growth and plasticity impacting cognitive processes like learning and memory. The proper functioning of these pathways depends on SHANK2's stability and interactions with other postsynaptic proteins.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlterations in SHANK2 are linked to conditions like autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia. Mutations in SHANK2 affect synaptic functions which are often seen in these neurological conditions. Additionally SHANK2 dysfunction relates to neuroligins and other postsynaptic proteins highlighting its involvement in the pathophysiology of these disorders. Understanding SHANK2's role can help in developing targeted therapies for such conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851777101993,"sku":"ab277532","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab277532","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
