Postsynaptic scaffolding protein that plays a critical role in synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity by providing a platform for the postsynaptic clustering of crucial synaptic proteins (PubMed:15358775, PubMed:9853749). Interacts with the cytoplasmic tail of NMDA receptor subunits and shaker-type potassium channels. Required for synaptic plasticity associated with NMDA receptor signaling. Overexpression or depletion of DLG4 changes the ratio of excitatory to inhibitory synapses in hippocampal neurons. May reduce the amplitude of ASIC3 acid-evoked currents by retaining the channel intracellularly. May regulate the intracellular trafficking of ADR1B. Also regulates AMPA-type glutamate receptor (AMPAR) immobilization at postsynaptic density keeping the channels in an activated state in the presence of glutamate and preventing synaptic depression (Probable). Under basal conditions, cooperates with FYN to stabilize palmitoyltransferase ZDHHC5 at the synaptic membrane through FYN-mediated phosphorylation of ZDHHC5 and its subsequent inhibition of association with endocytic proteins (By similarity).

Post Synaptic Density 95 kDa (PSD-95), also known as synapse-associated protein 90 kDa (SAP90), is a vital protein located in the postsynaptic density of neurons. It plays a key role in synaptic signaling and plasticity by organizing and anchoring various synaptic proteins, such as NMDA receptors and potassium channels. Changes in PSD-95 expression are associated with several neurological and psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, autism, and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Research on PSD-95 is crucial for understanding synaptic function and dysfunction, emphasizing its importance in the study of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases.

In Western blot, ab238135 was shown to bind specifically to DLG4. A band was observed at 80 kDa in wild-type U-87 MG cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in DLG4 knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and DLG4 knockout U-87 MG cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.
