Supplementary information

Rapsyn also known as receptor-associated protein of the synapse or 43 kDa postsynaptic protein has a mass of 43 kilodaltons. Rapsyn is mainly expressed in skeletal muscle tissues. Mechanically it plays a role as a scaffolding protein that links nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) to the postsynaptic cytoskeleton at neuromuscular junctions. This association ensures proper clustering of nAChRs which is essential for efficient synaptic transmission.
Biological function summary

Rapsyn facilitates the organization and stabilization of acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction. It acts as part of a larger protein complex that anchors these receptors to the skeletal muscle surface. Macromolecular complexes like those involving Rapsyn are important for the formation and maintenance of the postsynaptic membrane which ensures effective muscle contraction in response to nerve signals. Additionally Rapsyn assists in the aggregation of receptors during synaptogenesis the process by which synapses form between neurons and muscle fibers.

Pathways

Rapsyn contributes to signal transduction and synaptic transmission processes. It associates closely with Dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) pathway maintaining the structural integrity of the neuromuscular junction. Rapsyn interacts with proteins such as MuSK (Muscle-Specific Kinase) to facilitate nAChR clustering during synapse formation. This interaction also involves agrin-mediated signaling which is critical in neuromuscular development and function.

Mutations or dysfunctions in Rapsyn can be linked to conditions such as congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS). CMS involves impaired neuromuscular transmission causing muscle weakness and fatigue. Rapsyn mutations can disrupt its interaction with proteins like nAChRs and MuSK compromising synaptic stability and efficiency. Another related disorder is limb-girdle muscular dystrophy where pathways involving Rapsyn and DGC proteins are affected leading to progressive muscle weakness and degeneration.
