Long-term changes in excitatory synapse strength are thought to
reflect changes in synaptic abundance of AMPA receptors mediated by
receptor trafficking. AMPA receptor-binding protein (ABP) and glutamate
receptor-interacting protein (GRIP) are two similar PDZ (postsynaptic
density 95/Discs large/zona occludens 1) proteins that interact
with glutamate receptors 2 and 3 (GluR2 and GluR3) subunits. Both
proteins have proposed roles during long-term potentiation and
long-term depression in the delivery and anchorage of AMPA receptors at
synapses. Here we report a variant of ABP-L (seven PDZ form of ABP)
called pABP-L that is palmitoylated at a cysteine residue at position
11 within a novel 18 amino acid N-terminal leader sequence encoded
through differential splicing. In cultured hippocampal neurons,
nonpalmitoylated ABP-L localizes with internal GluR2 pools expressed
from a Sindbis virus vector, whereas pABP-L is membrane targeted and
associates with surface-localized GluR2 receptors at the plasma
membrane in spines. Mutation of Cys-11 to alanine blocks the
palmitoylation of pABP-L and targets the protein to intracellular
clusters, confirming that targeting the protein to spines is dependent
on palmitoylation. Non-palmitoylated GRIP is primarily
intracellular, but a chimera with the pABP-L N-terminal palmitoylation
sequence linked to the body of the GRIP protein is targeted to spines.
We suggest that pABP-L and ABP-L provide, respectively, synaptic and
intracellular sites for the anchorage of AMPA receptors during receptor
trafficking to and from the synapse.
