HOMER1
Homer protein homolog 1orHomer1is a neuronalproteinthat in humans is encoded by theHOMER1gene.[5][6][7]Other names are Vesl and PSD-Zip45.
Structure
[edit]Homer1proteinhas an N-terminalEVH1 domain,involved in protein interaction, and a C-terminalcoiled-coildomain involved in self association. It consists of two majorsplice variants,short-form (Homer1a) and long-form (Homer1b and c). Homer1a has only EVH1 domain and is monomeric while Homer1b and 1c have both EVH1 and coiled-coil domains and are tetrameric.[8][9]The coiled-coil can be further separated into N-terminal half and C-terminal half. The N-terminal half of the coiled-coil domain is predicted to be a parallel dimer while the C-terminus half is a hybrid of dimeric and anti-parallel tetrameric coiled-coil. As a whole, long Homer is predicted to have a dumbbell-like structure where two pairs of EVH1 domains are located on two sides of long (~50 nm) coiled-coil domain.[9]Mammals haveHomer2andHomer3,in addition to Homer1, which have similar domain structure. They also have similar alternatively spliced forms.

Tissue distribution
[edit]Homer1 is expressed widely in thecentral nervous systemas well as peripheral tissue includingheart,kidney,ovary,testis,andskeletal muscle.Subcellularly in neurons, Homer1 is concentrated in postsynaptic structures and constitutes a major part of thepostsynaptic density.
Function
[edit]EVH1 domaininteractswith PPXXF motif. This sequence motif exists in group 1metabotrophic glutamate receptor(mGluR1 and mGluR5),IP3receptors(IP3R),Shank,transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) family channels,drebrin,oligophrenin,dynamin3,CENTG1,andryanodin receptor.[5][7][10][11][12][13]Through its tetrameric structure, long forms of Homer (such as Homer1b and Homer1c) are proposed to cross link different proteins. For example, group 1 mGluR is crossed linked with its signaling downstream, IP3receptor.[10]Also, through crosslinking another multimeric protein Shank, it is proposed to comprise a core of thepostsynaptic density.[9]
Notably, the expression of Homer1a is induced by neuronal activity while that of Homer1b and 1c are constitutive. Thus Homer1a is classified as animmediate early gene.Homer1a, acts as a naturaldominant negative formthat blocks interaction between long-forms and their ligand proteins by competing with the EVH1 binding site on the ligand proteins. In this way, the short form of Homer uncouples mGluR signaling and also shrinksdendritic spinestructure.[6][14]Therefore, the short form of Homer is considered to be a part of a mechanism ofhomeostatic plasticitythat dampens the neuronal responsiveness when input activity is too high. The long form Homer1c plays a role insynaptic plasticityand the stabilization of synaptic changes duringlong-term potentiation.[15]
The coiled-coil domain is reported to interact withsyntaxin13and activatedCdc42.The interaction with Cdc42 inhibit the activity of Cdc42 to remodel dendritic spine structure.
Rapid antidepressant effects
[edit]Homer1a switches mGluR5 signaling to increase AMPA receptor activity for the rapid antidepressant actions of sleep deprivation.[16]
