GKAP/SAPAP orchestrates activity-dependent postsynaptic protein remodeling and homeostatic scaling

How does chronic activity modulation lead to global remodeling of proteins at synapses and synaptic scaling? Here we report a role of guanylate-kinase-associated-protein (GKAP; also known as SAPAP), a scaffolding molecule linking NMDA receptor-PSD-95 to Shank-Homer complexes, in these processes. Ove...
