MPDZ Interacts with HTR2C and provokes its clustering at the cell surface. Member of the NMDAR signaling complex that may play a role in control of AMPAR potentiation and synaptic plasticity in excitatory synapses. Expressed in heart, brain, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. 4 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported.
