Annotation description:Olfm2 is a secretory glycoprotein that interacts with GluA2-containing AMPA receptors on synaptic membranes. Biochemical fractionation from adult mouse cortex and retina shows Olfm2 co-purifies with synaptic membrane fractions but not synaptic cytosol in both tissues (Figure 6A). Co-immunoprecipitation experiments from synaptic membranes purified from mouse cortex shows Olfm2 localizes to a protein complex containing Olfm1, GluA2 and PSD-95 (Figure 6D-F).
