Human Gene HOMER3 (ENST00000433218.6) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens homer scaffold protein 3 (HOMER3), transcript variant 3, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_001145721) RefSeq Summary (NM_001145721): This gene encodes a member of the HOMER family of postsynaptic density scaffolding proteins that share a similar domain structure consisting of an N-terminal Enabled/vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein homology 1 domain which mediates protein-protein interactions, and a carboxy-terminal coiled-coil domain and two leucine zipper motifs that are involved in self-oligomerization. The encoded protein binds numerous other proteins including group I metabotropic glutamate receptors, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors and amyloid precursor proteins and has been implicated in diverse biological functions such as neuronal signaling, T-cell activation and trafficking of amyloid beta peptides. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009].

ID:HOME3_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Homer protein homolog 3; Short=Homer-3; FUNCTION: Postsynaptic density scaffolding protein. Binds and cross-links cytoplasmic regions of GRM1, GRM5, ITPR1, DNM3, RYR1, RYR2, SHANK1 and SHANK3. By physically linking GRM1 and GRM5 with ER-associated ITPR1 receptors, it aids the coupling of surface receptors to intracellular calcium release. Isoforms can be differently regulated and may play an important role in maintaining the plasticity at glutamatergic synapses. SUBUNIT: Isoform 1 and isoform 2 encode coiled-coil structures that mediate homo- and heteromultimerization. INTERACTION: P05067-8:APP; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-748420, EBI-302661; P26367:PAX6; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-748420, EBI-747278; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity). Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane, postsynaptic density (By similarity). Cell junction, synapse (By similarity). Note=Postsynaptic density of neuronal cells (By similarity). DOMAIN: The WH1 domain interacts with the PPXXF motif in GRM1, GRM5, RYR1, RYR2, ITPR1, SHANK 1 and SHANK3. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the Homer family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 WH1 domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAB81545.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
