Description: The melanocortin family comprises the Alpha-, Beta- and Gamma- melanocyte stimulating hormones (MSH) and adrenocorticotrophin. The receptors for these hormones are seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled proteins that activate adenylyl cyclase. Five melanocortin receptors have been cloned and shown to exhibit different affinities and patterns of expression. MC1-R (MSH-R) is expressed in melanocytes and corticoadrenal tissue. MC2-R is the ACTH receptor and is expressed primarily in the adrenal cortex. MC3-R has been found in specific regions of the brain and is also expressed in placenta and gut. MC4-R is expressed primarily in brain, while MC5-R is expressed at low levels in most tissues.

Description: The gene encoding DYX1C1 maps in the 15q21 region, which is disrupted by a translocation t(2;15)(q11;q21) and segregates with dyslexia. Two sequence changes in DYX1C1, including one involving the translation initiation sequence and an Elk-1 transcription factor binding site (-3G -->A) and a codon (1249G -->T), introduce a premature stop codon and truncate the protein by 4 amino acids. DYX1C1 encodes a nuclear tetratricopeptide repeat domain protein that is dynamically regulated in brain. In human brain, DYX1C1 protein localizes to a fraction of cortical neurons and white matter glial cells. It is also expressed in lung, kidney and testis.

Description: Neuropilin and tolloid-like protein 1 (NETO1) is involved in the development and/or maintenance of neuronal circuitry. It is a type I transmembrane protein that is expressed in the brain and retina. NETO1 contains one LDL-receptor class A domain and two CUB domains and is either membrane-bound or secreted. It has three alternatively spliced isoforms, the first two of which are retina-specific and the third of which is found in both retina and brain tissue. Furthermore, as an accessory subunit of the neuronal N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR), it regulates long-term NMDA receptor-dependent synaptic plasticity and cognition, at least in the context of spatial learning and memory.

Description: SCUBE1 Antibody: SCUBE1 is an EGF-related protein with a CUB (C1s-like) domain that is expressed primarily in the developing gonad, nervous system, somites, surface ectoderm and limb buds. The N-terminal EGF-like repeats of SCUBE1 participate in the formation of adhesions in a Ca2+-dependent fashion. In contrast, the C-terminal cysteine-rich motifs and CUB domain can directly bind and antagonize bone morphogenic protein activity; genetic ablation of this region resulted in brain malformation in mice embryos, suggesting SCUBE1 plays a role in brain morphogenesis. SCUBE1 has also been implicated in early craniofacial development in mice.

Description: Filament-forming cytoskeletal GTPase (By similarity). May play a role in cytokinesis (Potential). May play a role in the internalization of 2 intracellular microbial pathogens, Listeria monocytogenes and Shigella flexneri.Tissue specificity: Widely expressed. Isoforms are differentially expressed in testes, kidney, liver heart, spleen, brain, peripheral blood leukocytes, skeletal muscle and kidney. Specific isoforms appear to demonstrate tissue specificity. Isoform 5 is the most highly expressed in fetal tissue. Isoform 1 is detected in all tissues except the brain and thymus, while isoform 2, isoform 3, and isoform 4 are detected at low levels in approximately half of the fetal tissues.

Description: PHOX2A and PHOX2B (Paired mesoderm homeobox protein) are closely related, paired-homeodomain transcription factors that function as determinants of the noradrenergic phenotype during embryogenesis. PHOX2 proteins are crucial for the regulation of endogenous hydroxylases in neural crest cells and promote sympathetic neuron generation. Human PHOX2B contains one DNA binding homeobox domain and is required for the differentiation of all central and nonperipheral noradrenergic centers in the brain. In contrast, PHOX2A controls only the differentiation of the main noradrenergic center of the brain. Regulation of PHOX2 may have therapeutic utility in aging or disorders involving degeneration of noradrenergic neurons.

Description: The Teashirt zinc finger homeobox (TSHZ) family comprise a family of evolutionarily conserved transcription factors that, in Drosophila, are active in specific body parts for patterning, but whose function in vertebrates is less clear. In mice, the known three TSHZ proteins are expressed in distinct patterns in the developing and adult brain, suggesting that they play a role in the establishment of regional identity and specification of cell types within the brain. Recent experiments have shown that the expression of TSHZ2 is frequently downregulated in most breast and prostate cancers and its promoter was unmethylated in virtually all cases, suggesting this family of proteins may also be involved in carcinogenesis.

Description: Glutamate receptors mediate most excitatory neurotransmissions in the brain and play an important role in neural plasticity, neural development and neurodegeneration. Ionotropic glutamate receptors are divided into two categories, namely NMDA receptors and kainate/AMPA receptors, both of which contain glutamate-gated, cation-specific ion channels. Kainate/AMPA receptors consist of seven structurally related subunits, designated GluR-1 to -7, and are primarily responsible for fast excitatory neurotransmissions carried out by glutamate. GluR-delta 1 (Glutamate receptor delta-1 subunit), also known as GRID1, is a multi-pass membrane protein that belongs to the kainate/AMPA receptor family and is expressed primarily in the brain. Localized to the cell junction and the postsynaptic cell membrane, GluR-delta 1 functions as a glutamate receptor that regulates synaptic transmissions in the central nervous system (CNS) and is thought to play an important role in synaptic plasticity. Defects in the gene encoding GluR-delta 1 are associated with schizophrenia, a chronic and severe brain disorder.

Description: LIMK 1 and 2 likely regulate aspects of the cytoskeleton, through control of the organization of actin filaments. They can phosphorylate an actin-binding protein, cofilin which binds to actin monomers and polymers and promotes the disassembly of actin filament.The phosphorylation of cofilin via LIMK inactivates this potential. LIMK1 is highly active in the brain and spinal chord, where it is believed to be involved in the development of nerve cells whilst LIMK2 is ubiquitously expressed in many adult tissues. LIMK1 may play an important role in areas of the brain that are responsible for processing visual-spatial information (visuospatial constructive cognition). These parts of the brain are important for visualizing an object as a set of parts and performing tasks such as writing, drawing, constructing models, and assembling puzzles. LIMK1 is specifically stimulated by Rac, one of the Rho family proteins, while LIMK2 activity is activated under the control of other Rho family members, Rho and Cdc42, suggesting that two distinct pathways exist in the Rho family driven actin cytoskeleton dynamics.
