[PDF][PDF] N-terminal palmitoylation of PSD-95 regulates association with cell membranes and interaction with K+ channel Kv1. 4

JR Topinka, DS Bredt - Neuron, 1998 - cell.com
Ion channels and associated signal transduction cascades are clustered at excitatory
synapses by PSD-95 and related PDZ-containing proteins. Mechanisms that target PSD-95 to …

Localization of postsynaptic density-93 to dendritic microtubules and interaction with microtubule-associated protein 1A

JE Brenman, JR Topinka, EC Cooper… - Journal of …, 1998 - Soc Neuroscience
Postsynaptic density-93 (PSD-93)/Chapsyn-110 is a member of the membrane-associated
guanylate kinase (MAGUK) family of PDZ domain-containing proteins. MAGUKs are widely …

[HTML][HTML] Ion channel clustering by membrane-associated guanylate kinases: differential regulation by N-terminal lipid and metal binding motifs

AE El-Husseini, JR Topinka, JE Lehrer-Graiwer… - Journal of Biological …, 2000 - ASBMB

PSD-93 knock-out mice reveal that neuronal MAGUKs are not required for development or function of parallel fiber synapses in cerebellum

AW McGee, JR Topinka, K Hashimoto… - Journal of …, 2001 - Soc Neuroscience
Membrane-associated guanylate kinases (MAGUKs) are abundant postsynaptic density (PSD)-95/discs
large/zona occludens-1 (PDZ)-containing proteins that can assemble receptors …

[PDF][PDF] Development of polymorphic microsatellite loci in the northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) and cross-amplification in other raptor species

JR Topinka, B May - Conservation Genetics, 2004 - Citeseer
The northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) is the largest species in the genus Accipiter, a
