Activity summary

RIM2 also known as Rab3-interacting molecule 2 is a protein that facilitates synaptic vesicle priming. It acts as an important component in the release of neurotransmitters at synaptic junctions. The RIM2 protein has a molecular weight of approximately 150 kDa. Researchers often find it expressed in neuronal tissues where it plays an important role in neurotransmitter release.

Biological function summary

RIM2 interacts with other proteins to form a complex that stabilizes synaptic transmission. This protein complex is essential for the regulation of neurotransmitter release maintaining synaptic vesicle docking and priming processes. RIM2 facilitates a balance in the presynaptic terminal influencing the effective throughput of signals between neurons. Its precise location in nerve cells allows it to function efficiently in the rapid and controlled release of neurotransmitters.

Pathways

RIM2 plays a critical role in the regulation of the synaptic vesicle cycle and neurotransmitter release pathways. It often interacts with proteins such as Munc13 and synaptotagmin which are important in the synaptic vesicle fusion process. Through this involvement RIM2 contributes to the proper function of synaptic signaling and communication within the nervous system.

Associated diseases and disorders

Studies link RIM2 dysregulation to neurological disorders like epilepsy and autism spectrum disorder. The disruption of its interaction with proteins such as Rab3 can lead to impaired synaptic function and subsequent neurological symptoms. Understanding RIM2's role offers insights into therapeutic approaches for treating associated neurological disorders.
