Note that the nuclear accumulation of scFv-Gephyrin-NLS was associated with a marked reduction of both gephyrin (scFv + Gephyrin in A) and glycine receptor clusters (scFv + GlyRs in B). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
To exploit the intrabodies-based retargeting scheme for depleting endogenous gephyrin from inhibitory synapses, the linker or intervening region of gephyrin molecule was used for the two-hybrid selection method. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In the present study, a nuclear localization signal (NLS)-targeted intrabody for the removal of endogenous gephyrin from inhibitory receptor clusters in cultured hippocampal neurons has been developed. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||

Note that the nuclear accumulation of scFv-Gephyrin-NLS was associated with a marked reduction of both gephyrin (scFv + Gephyrin in A) and glycine receptor clusters (scFv + GlyRs in B). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The critical contribution of gephyrin to the postsynaptic localization of GlyRs in the spinal cord has been elegantly demonstrated by gene ablation experiments (Feng et al. 1998). | |||||||||||||||

|
Collybistin knock out mice exhibit a region specific loss of postsynaptic gephyrin and GABAA receptor clusters in the hippocampus and the basolateral amygdala. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The synaptic formation of gephyrin and GABAA receptor clusters are mutually dependent on each other: neuronal cultures from gephyrin knock out mice show an extensive loss of alpha2 and gamma2 containing GABAA receptor clusters and vice versa in GABAA receptor gamma2 subunit knock out mice the synaptic gephyrin clusters are absent and the remaining alpha-beta containing receptors are diffusely distributed on the cell surface (Craig et al., 1996; Essrich et al., 1998; Günther et al., 1995). | |||||||||||||||
