homer protein homolog 3; homer-3 (HOMER3)

Function

• postsynaptic density scaffolding protein
• WH1 domain interacts with the PPXXF motif in GRM1, GRM5, RYR1, RYR2, ITPR1, SHANK 1, SHANK3
• links GRM1 & GRM5 with ER-associated ITPR1 receptors
• plasticity at glutamatergic synapses

Structure

• the WH1 domain interacts with the PPXXF motif in GRM1, GRM5, RYR1, RYR2, ITPR1, SHANK 1 & SHANK3
• belongs to the homer family
• contains 1 WH1 domain
