NMDA receptors interact directly with postsynaptic density-95
(PSD-95), a scaffold protein that organizes a
cytoskeletal- signaling complex at the postsynaptic membrane. The
molecular mechanism by which the PSD-95-based protein complex is
trafficked to the postsynaptic site is unknown but presumably involves
specific motor proteins. Here we demonstrate a direct interaction
between the PSD-95-associated protein guanylate kinase
domain-associated protein (GKAP) and dynein light chain (DLC), a light
chain subunit shared by myosin-V (an actin-based motor) and cytoplasmic
dynein (a microtubule-based motor). A yeast two-hybrid screen with GKAP isolated DLC2, a novel protein 93% identical to the previously cloned
8 kDa dynein light chain (DLC1). A complex containing PSD-95, GKAP,
DLC, and myosin-V can be immunoprecipitated from rat brain extracts.
DLC colocalizes with PSD-95 and F-actin in dendritic spines of cultured
neurons and is enriched in biochemical purifications of PSD. Immunogold
electron microscopy reveals a concentration of DLC in the postsynaptic
compartment of asymmetric synapses of brain in which it is associated
with the PSD and the spine apparatus. We discuss the possibility that
the GKAP/DLC interaction may be involved in trafficking of the PSD-95
complex by motor proteins.
Key words:
postsynaptic density; motor protein; NMDA receptors; spine apparatus; receptor trafficking; cytoplasmic dynein
