Supplementary information

Piccolo also known as PCLO is a protein with a molecular weight of about 550 kDa. It is located at the presynaptic active zone of neurons where it performs essential mechanical roles. The presence of Piccolo is universal especially in the brain and it plays a critical part in maintaining the proper structure and function of synapses. The protein contributes to the assembly and modulation of the presynaptic scaffold aiding neurotransmitter release and synaptic vesicle cycling.
Biological function summary

Piccolo interacts with multiple components of the synaptic machinery as it is part of the active zone complex. It associates with proteins such as Bassoon which together help to modulate neurotransmission efficacy. Piccolo contributes to the regulation of synaptic vesicle pools shaping the speed and timing of synaptic responses. These interactions emphasize its role in synaptic plasticity and maintain overall neural network stability.

Pathways

Piccolo engages in the synaptic vesicle cycle and neurotransmitter release pathway. It connects closely with proteins such as Synapsin and Rab3A involved in these processes. Through these pathways Piccolo aligns presynaptic components to facilitate rapid synaptic responses. Consequently it plays a role in processes like learning and memory where fast neurotransmitter release is necessary.

Piccolo relates to neurological diseases like major depressive disorder and schizophrenia. Alterations in its expression or function impact synapse structure and may contribute to these conditions. It particularly intersects with proteins like Synapsin in the context of these disorders suggesting disruptions in neurotransmission can have wide-reaching effects on mental health and cognitive functions. These connections highlight the importance of Piccolo in maintaining normal neural function and its potential as a therapeutic target.

General info

Function

Scaffold protein of the presynaptic cytomatrix at the active zone (CAZ) which is the place in the synapse where neurotransmitter is released (By similarity). After synthesis, participates in the formation of Golgi-derived membranous organelles termed Piccolo-Bassoon transport vesicles (PTVs) that are transported along axons to sites of nascent synaptic contacts (By similarity). At the presynaptic active zone, regulates the spatial organization of synaptic vesicle cluster, the protein complexes that execute membrane fusion and compensatory endocytosis (By similarity). Organizes as well the readily releasable pool of synaptic vesicles and safeguards a fraction of them to be not immediately available for action potential-induced release (By similarity). Also functions in processes other than assembly such as the regulation of specific presynaptic protein ubiquitination by interacting with SIAH1 or the regulation of presynaptic autophagy (By similarity). Also mediates synapse to nucleus communication leading to reconfiguration of gene expression by associating with the transcriptional corepressor CTBP1 and by subsequently reducing the size of its pool available for nuclear import (By similarity).
