    Mol Neurobiol 42:161-84. 2010
    ..Moreover, we are getting closer to understanding the precise mechanisms of AMPA-R-mediated synaptic plasticity...

    Biol Chem 387:179-87. 2006
    ..In the absence of stargazin/TARP proteins, the density representing the transmembrane region of the AMPA-R particles is substantially smaller, corroborating our previous analysis that was based solely on projection images...

    Structure 18:1044-53. 2010
    ..We thus provide the first structural insights into the architecture of the extracellular region of neurexin-1alpha, show how the protein may fit in the synaptic cleft, and how partnering proteins could bind simultaneously...

    Natalie F Shanks
    Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093, USA
    J Neurosci 30:2728-40. 2010
    ..The contribution of stargazin on the subunit assembly of AMPA-R was examined. Our data suggest that stargazin affects AMPA-R trafficking at a later stage of receptor maturation...
