Function
Microtubule-associated protein involved in membrane protein-cytoskeleton interactions. It is thought to anchor the inhibitory glycine receptor (GLYR) to subsynaptic microtubules (By similarity). Catalyzes two steps in the biosynthesis of the molybdenum cofactor. In the first step, molybdopterin is adenylated. Subsequently, molybdate is inserted into adenylated molybdopterin and AMP is released. -
Pathway
Cofactor biosynthesis; molybdopterin biosynthesis. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in GPHN are the cause of molybdenum cofactor deficiency type C (MOCOD type C) [MIM:252150]. MOCOD type C is an autosomal recessive disease which leads to the pleiotropic loss of all molybdoenzyme activities and is characterized by severe neurological damage, neonatal seizures and early childhood death.
Defects in GPHN are a cause of startle disease (STHE) [MIM:149400]; also known as hyperekplexia. STHE is a genetically heterogeneous neurologic disorder characterized by muscular rigidity of central nervous system origin, particularly in the neonatal period, and by an exaggerated startle response to unexpected acoustic or tactile stimuli. -
Sequence similarities
In the N-terminal section; belongs to the moaB/mog family.
In the C-terminal section; belongs to the moeA family. -
Cellular localization
Cell junction > synapse. Cell junction > synapse > postsynaptic cell membrane. Cytoplasm > cytoskeleton. Cytoplasmic face of glycinergic postsynaptic membranes. - Information by UniProt

Predicted band size: 80 kDaLanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab181382 observed at 90 kDa. Red - loading control, ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.
ab181382 was shown to recognize Gephyrin in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in GPHN (Gephyrin) knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and GPHN (Gephyrin) knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab181382 and ab9484 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 μg/ml and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging. -
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human kidney tissue sections labeling Gephyrin with purified ab181382 at 1/100 dilution (1.62 µg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using ab93684 (Tris/EDTA buffer, pH 9.0). ImmunoHistoProbe one step HRP Polymer (ready to use) was used as the secondary antibody. Negative control: PBS instead of the primary antibody. Hematoxylin was used as a counterstain.
