Shank proteins make up a family of scaffold proteins identified through their interaction with a variety of membrane and cytoplasmic proteins. Shank proteins at postsynaptic sites of excitatory synapses play roles in signal transmission into the postsynaptic neuron. Studies suggest that Shank2 is expressed in the neurons of the developing retina, and could play a role in the neuronal differentiation of the developing retina. Other recent studies suggest that the disruption of glutamate receptors at the shank post synaptic platform could contribute to the destruction of the postsynaptic density, which underlies the synaptic dysfunction and loss in Alzheimer’s disease.
SHANK2 Antibody was produced in mice by repeated immunizations raised against a fusion protein corresponding to an internal region of (SH3/PDZ domains) of rat Shank2 (SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains protein 2.
