Target Details for NPTXR

Target: NPTXR (Neuronal Pentraxin Receptor (NPTXR))

Alternative Name: NPTXR

Background: NPR, NPTXR,Neuronal Pentraxin Receptor (NPTXR) belongs to the Pentraxin superfamily of proteins (NP) that is characterized by a pentraxin domain at the C-terminal end. It is the only pentraxin family member anchored to the cell membrane by a putative N-terminal transmembrane domain, as opposed to the other two family members, Neuronal Pentraxin1 (NP1) and Neuronal Pentraxin 2 (NP2) that are secreted proteins. NPs can form homo pentamers and hetero pentamers via their pentraxin domains 1.NPTXR was first identified as the receptor for the snake venom toxin taipoxin and was later found to bind to AMPARs at excitatory synapses and play important, roles in the activity-dependent regulation of neural circuits via this binding activity 1.Lately, the levels of NPTXR protein in cerebrospinal fluid has been identified as a novel potential biomarker of Alzheimer's disease progression and could have important utility in assessing treatment success in clinical trials 2. In addition, NPTXR was identified as a molecule required for gastric cancer metastasis 3.
