Figure(s): | Figures 5-8 |
Annotation description: | Figure 5: overexpression of a kinase-deficient mutant of SAD-B (BRSK1), where lysine 63 was replaced with arginine, in primary cultured rat hippocampal neurons significantly increased the frequency of mEPSC whereas controls had no effect. "No significant change of its amplitude was observed by overexpression of all the constructs. In addition, no significant difference in the average rise time and decay time of mEPSC was detected (data not shown), suggesting that SAD-B may not be involved in the fusion of SVs." Figure 6: neurotransmission was significantly impaired upon expressing a polyclonal antibody against the SCR2 domain of SAD-B or a recombinant protein of SCR2. Figure 7: SAD-B is involved in control of the readily releasable pool (RRP) size. Figure 8, S7: SAD-B specifically phosphorylates RIM1 but not Munc13-1 at least in vitro. "In summary, we have demonstrated that SAD-B, a novel SV- and active zone cytomatrix-associated protein kinase, is involved in the regulation of neurotransmitter release, perhaps via phosphorylation of the active zone protein and vesicle priming factor RIM1" |

Additional literature: | "Therefore, these data suggest that even after the synaptic responses during LFS reach similar steady-state levels, the replenishment rate of synaptic vesicles from reserve pools, the recycling of released vesicles, or both are significantly slower in SAD-B KO mice.
