Annotation description:This paper shows that PTPRS deletion in excitatory neurons in the cortex and hippocampus by conditional KO approach leads to decreased NMDAR currents and NMDAR-dependent LTP in the postsynaptic side of excitatory synapses at hippocampal CA3-CA1 synapses, suggestive of trans-synaptic regulation of postsynaptic NMDAR function by a presynaptic adhesion molecule, although it does not seem to involve a direct transsynaptic interaction of PTPRS with its knwon postsynaptic adhesion partners such as HSPG/CSPG or Slitrk1/TrkC. Another supportive paper from Thomas Sudhof's group (see above) demonstrates that a triple deletion of PTPRS, PTPRD, and LAR (three known members of the LAR family of receptor tyrosine phosphatases) leads to decreased postsynaptic NMDAR currents, again supportive of transsynaptic mechanisms.

(E) Suppressed HFS-LTP at Emx1-Cre;Ptprsfl/fl SC-CA1 synapses (P26-32). (F) Suppressed TBS-LTP at Emx1-Cre;Ptprsfl/fl SC-CA1 synapses (P26-32).

Deletion of presynaptic, but not postsynaptic, PTPσ suppresses TBS-LTP at SC-CA1 synapses.

Re-expression of presynaptic PTP σ rescues postsynaptic LTP in the hippocampus through mechanisms independent of the extracellular region of PTPσ.
