It is a transmembrane protein with a mass of approximately 38 kDa. Stargazin is highly expressed in the brain predominantly in the cerebellum and hippocampus and is an important member of the transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory protein (TARP) family. It directly interacts with AMPA receptors to regulate their surface expression and synaptic localization impacting synaptic plasticity and transmission in neurons.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe protein known as Stargazin serves a pivotal role in the regulation of excitatory synaptic transmission. It forms part of a complex with AMPA receptors facilitating their proper trafficking to the postsynaptic membrane. Stargazin’s interaction with AMPA receptors is not just structural; it also modulates receptor activation and desensitization kinetics impacting neuronal communication. This modulation is essential for synaptic plasticity—a process underlying learning and memory.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe interaction of Stargazin with AMPA receptors is central to the glutamatergic signaling pathway. This pathway is important for synaptic strength modulation and long-term potentiation. Stargazin also interacts with other TARP family proteins such as γ-3 γ-4 and γ-8 which further influences AMPA receptor trafficking across various brain regions. This association with different TARP proteins allows it to finely tune synaptic responses and modifies the receptor's contribution to neural signaling.\u003cbr\u003e\nStargazin plays a significant role in conditions like epilepsy and ataxia. Mutations or dysregulation in Stargazin disrupt AMPA receptor trafficking and synaptic signaling contributing to the abnormal neuronal activity observed in epilepsy. Moreover Stargazin is implicated in type 1 episodic ataxia due to its influence on cerebellar synaptic function which is vital for motor coordination. Stargazin’s interaction with other AMPAR auxiliary subunits can further exacerbate these disorders by altering receptor compositions and neuronal excitability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851600973993,"sku":"ab300520","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab300520","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
