| Summary |
This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that are receptor associated proteins of the synapse. The encoded protein contains a conserved cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation site, and plays a critical role in clustering and anchoring nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at synaptic sites by linking the receptors to the underlying postsynaptic cytoskeleton, possibly by direct association with actin or spectrin. Mutations in this gene may play a role in postsynaptic congenital myasthenic syndromes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Membraneless condensates by Rapsn phase separation as a platform for neuromuscular junction formation.
IF=15
Neuron
Our daily life depends on muscle contraction, a process that is controlled by the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). However, the mechanisms of NMJ assembly remain unclear. Here we show that Rapsn, a protein critical for NMJ formation, undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and condensates into liquid-like assemblies. Such assemblies can recruit acetylcholine receptors (AChRs), cytoskeletal proteins, and signaling proteins for postsynaptic differentiation. Rapsn LLPS requires multivalent binding of tetratricopeptide repeats (TPRs) and is increased by Musk signaling. The capacity of Rapsn to condensate and co-condensate with interaction proteins is compromised by mutations of congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs). NMJ formation is impaired in mutant mice carrying a CMS-associated, LLPS-deficient mutation. These results reveal a critical role of Rapsn LLPS in forming a synaptic semi-membraneless compartment for NMJ formation.
This KO model may be useful for:
- Investigating the role of RAPSN in phase separation and membraneless condensate formation
- Studying molecular mechanisms underlying neuromuscular junction (NMJ) assembly and organization
- Functional validation of RAPSN-dependent signaling pathways in synaptic development
- Modeling RAPSN-related congenital myasthenic syndromes for disease mechanism studies
- Screening for modulators of NMJ formation and synaptic protein condensation
