Camkii-mediated phosphorylation regulates distributions of Syngap-α1 and -α2 at the postsynaptic density.

SynGAP, a protein abundant at the postsynaptic density (PSD) of glutamatergic neurons, is known to modulate synaptic strength by regulating the incorporation of AMPA receptors at the synapse. Two isoforms of SynGAP, α1 and α2, which differ in their C-termini, have opposing effects on synaptic streng...
