Nerve cell membranes are the
communication centers of the brain.
It is through membrane processes that
nerve cells communicate with one
another and also turn on/off or up/down
regulate cell genome activity.

The most common type of IMP is the transmembrane protein (TM)
Protein cross the membrane only once or it may weave in and out, crossing several times.

IMPs include
transporters,
channels,
receptors,
enzymes,
structural membrane-anchoring domains,
proteins involved in accumulation and transduction of energy, and proteins responsible for cell adhesion.

TM proteins can be categorized as
Type I, amino-terminus is outside of the membrane,
Type II, which have their carboxy-terminus outside of the membrane.

In lipid anchored proteins, a covalently attached fatty acid such as palmitate or myristate serves to anchor them to either face of the cell membrane.

The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a cytoskeleton specialization at neuronal synapses
Identified as an electron-dense region at the membrane of a postsynaptic neuron
PSDs are usually composed of L-glutamate neurotransmitter receptors,

Cell adhesion molecules ,diverse set of other signaling proteins.
PSDs vary in size and composition among brain regions

An analysis was made of the protein composition of a fraction of postsynaptic densities (PSDs) prepared from rat brain.
Protein makes up 90% of the material in the PSD fraction.
Two major polypeptide fractions are present, based on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
The major polypeptide fraction has a molecular weight of 53,000, makes up about 45% of the PSD protein, and comigrates on gels with a major polypeptide of the synaptic plasma membrane.
The other polypeptide band has a molecular weight of 97,000, accounts for 17% of the PSD protein, and is not a prominent constituent of other fractions.

The postsynaptic density (PSD) is crucial for synaptic functions
Homer and Shank are among the most abundant scaffolding proteins in the PSD, working synergistically for maturation of dendritic spines.
Homer and Shank, together, form a mesh-like matrix structure..
Homer-Shank complex serves as a structural framework and as an assembly platform for other PSD proteins.
04/10/23 29nerve membranes
Six other polypeptides of higher molecular weight (100,000–180,000) are consistently present in small amounts (3–9% each).
The PSD fraction contains slightly greater amounts of polar amino acids and proline than the synaptic plasma membrane fraction, but no amino acid is usually prominent.
The PSD apparently consists of a structural matrix formed primarily by a single polypeptide or class of polypeptides of 53,000 molecular weight.
Small amounts of other specialized proteins are contained within this matrix

ErbB4 interacts specifically with the first and second PDZ domains of postsynaptic density (PSD) protein 95 (PSD95), a scaffold protein, and is localized in the PSD of excitatory synapses.
The interaction with PSD95 enhances neuregulin 1 (NRG1) signalling, presumably by increasing ErbB4 homodimerization.
NRG1, by activating ErbB4, suppresses long-term potentiation induction and expression.
Through PSD95, ErbB4 signalling might regulate the properties of NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors (NMDARs), AMPA (-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid) receptors (AMPARs) and K+ channels (K+ ch).
04/10/23 32nerve membranes
Through the GKAP–Shank–Homer complex, ErbB4 signalling might be involved in regulating the function of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs).
PSD95 might also recruit ErbB4 to the neuroligin–neurexin complex that is essential for synapse formation
ErbB2, on the other hand, interacts with erbin, a protein that contains multiple leucine-rich domains and a PDZ domain
04/10/23 33nerve membranes
This interaction has been implicated in regulating NRG1 signalling
ErbB4 is present in the presynaptic terminals of GABA (-aminobutyric acid )-ergic interneurons
NRG1 stimulates presynaptic ErbB4 to enhance activity-dependent GABA release through mechanisms that have yet to be identified.
A working hypothesis for how NRG1 might regulate pyramidal neuron activity.
The output of pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is regulated by excitatory glutamatergic neurons (shown in red) and various inhibitory GABAergic interneurons (shown in green).
04/10/23 34nerve membranes
NRG1 regulates glutamatergic transmission and/or plasticity by activating PSD-localized ErbB4.
There are at least three types of GABAergic interneurons in the PFC.
Wide-arbor basket cells target the somata and proximal dendrites of pyramidal neurons and adjust the integrated synaptic response.
Chandelier cells (or axon-targeting interneurons) terminate at or near the axon hillock of pyramidal neurons, forming vertical arrays of terminals termed 'cartridges', to regulate the generation and timing of action potentials.
.

Conversely, Martinotti cells terminate on distal dendrites of pyramidal cells to influence the dendritic processing and integration of synaptic inputs .
By controlling activity-dependent GABA release, NRG1 might repress the activity of pyramidal neurons
