Shanks (also known as ProSAPs/Shanks) are large multidomain proteins that localize to excitatory synapses in the mammalian brain, where they are believed to organize the protein scaffold of the postsynaptic density (PSD). Structurally, Shanks are coupling glutamate receptor scaffolds to the actin cytoskeleton and intracellular signalling pathways by means of their protein- protein interaction domains. Functional studies suggest that Shanks may be important scaffold molecules with a crucial role in the assembly of the PSD during synaptogenesis, in the structural instruction of synaptic plasticity, and in the regulation of dendritic spine morphology. Mutations in all three human SHANK genes have been directly linked to patients diagnosed with...
