Function
Seems to act as scaffold molecule at synaptic junctions by assembling neurotransmitter receptors and cell adhesion proteins. May play a role in regulating activin-mediated signaling in neuronal cells. Enhances the ability of PTEN to suppress AKT1 activation. Plays a role in nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced recruitment of RAPGEF2 to late endosomes and neurite outgrowth.
S-SCAM is a member of the membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK) family of PDZ-domain-containing proteins that include the synaptic organising molecule PSD-95. The PDZ domain of S-SCAM binds to the C-terminal tail of NL2, forming a ternary complex at the cell membrane (Figure 2b). The DGC is potentially recruited to the postsynaptic membrane though a direct neurexin–dystroglycan interaction and an indirect interaction with NL2 via the synaptic scaffolding protein S-SCAM.
