Function

Postsynaptic density scaffolding protein. Binds and cross-links cytoplasmic regions of GRM1, GRM5, ITPR1, DNM3, RYR1, RYR2, SHANK1 and SHANK3. By physically linking GRM1 and GRM5 with ER-associated ITPR1 receptors, it aids the coupling of surface receptors to intracellular calcium release. May also couple GRM1 to PI3 kinase through its interaction with AGAP2. Isoform 1 regulates the trafficking and surface expression of GRM5. Isoform 3 acts as a natural dominant negative, in dynamic competition with constitutively expressed isoform 1 to regulate synaptic metabotropic glutamate function. Isoform 3, may be involved in the structural changes that occur at synapses during long-lasting neuronal plasticity and development. Forms a high-order complex with SHANK1, which in turn is necessary for the structural and functional integrity of dendritic spines (By similarity). Negatively regulates T cell activation by inhibiting the calcineurin-NFAT pathway. Acts by competing with calcineurin/PPP3CA for NFAT protein binding, hence preventing NFAT activation by PPP3CA (PubMed:18218901).

Notes

ab232668 is the carrier-free version of Anti-Homer1 antibody [EPR15309] ab184955.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Homer1 also known as HOMER is a scaffolding protein with a mass of approximately 45 kDa. It functions in organizing receptor signaling complexes notably interacting with metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) and certain transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. Homer1 exists mainly in the postsynaptic density of excitatory synapses in the brain indicating its strong expression in neuronal tissues. It has multiple isoforms with the isoform 1a often being highlighted in various research contexts.

Biological function summary

Homer1 plays an important role in synaptic plasticity and intracellular calcium signaling. As part of a complex Homer1 aids in linking mGluRs to other proteins stabilizing receptor signaling and contributing to the regulation of calcium homeostasis within the cell. This scaffolding action has implications for the modulation of signal transduction pathways that maintain neuronal communication and synaptic efficacy.

Pathways

Homer1 interacts significantly with the mGluR signaling pathway and the calcium signaling pathway. These interactions place Homer1 at a nexus of neuronal signal propagation. Related proteins in this context include the mGluR1 and mGluR5 which in sync with Homer1 form a network ensuring proper synaptic response to neurotransmitters. TRPC channels are also closely related as Homer1 helps modulate their activity through dynamic assembly with mGluR complexes.

Associated diseases and disorders

Homer1 shows involvement in various neurological conditions such as schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorders. Abnormalities in Homer1 expression or function are linked to disrupted synaptic signaling which contributes to the pathophysiology of these disorders. Within these disease frameworks proteins like mGluR5 collaborate with Homer1 and serve as focal points in understanding the disrupted signaling mechanisms underlying these conditions.
