About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for BSN: Neurotransmitters are released from a specific site in the axon terminal called the active zone, which is composed ofsynaptic vesicles and a meshwork of cytoskeleton underlying the plasma membrane. The protein encoded by this gene isthought to be a scaffolding protein involved in organizing the presynaptic cytoskeleton. The gene is expressedprimarily in neurons in the brain. A similar gene product in rodents is concentrated in the active zone of axonterminals and tightly associated with cytoskeletal structures, and is essential for regulating neurotransmitterrelease from a subset of synapses. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: BSN_HUMAN, Q9UPA5Function: Is thought to be involved in the organization of the cytomatrix at the nerve terminals active zone (CAZ)which regulates neurotransmitter release. Seems to act through binding to ERC2/CAST1. Essential in regulatedneurotransmitter release from a subset of brain glutamatergic synapses. Involved in the formation of the retinalphotoreceptor ribbon synapses (By similarity)
