Preparation and Storage

Background: Collybistin/ARHGEF9

Collybistin, also known as ARHGEF9, is an approximately 60 kDa cytoplasmic guanine nucleotide exchange factor. It is expressed in the brain and is upregulated at the onset of neuronal differentiation. Collybistin associates with Neuroligin-2, Gephyrin, and GABA receptor subunits to form a complex which is required for GABAergic synaptogenesis as well as hippocampal synaptic plasticity. Mutations in Collybistin are associated with a variety of neurological disorders including epilepsy, anxiety, aggression, mental retardation, and hyperplexia. Human Collybistin contains an SH3 domain (aa 8-67), a DH domain (aa 103-287), and a Pleckstrin homology domain (aa 318-426). Within aa 390-516, human Collybistin shares 97% and 57% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Collybistin, respectively.
