SHISA7
Regulator of long-term synaptic potentiation specifically involved in the formation and retrieval of hippocampus-dependent contextual fear memory. Probably regulates induction and maintenance of long-term potentiation at Schaffer collaterals/CA3-CA1 excitatory synapses by affecting the recruitment of AMPA-type glutamate receptor (AMPAR) at postsynaptic density. Belongs to the shisa family. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
