Cloning of human striatin cDNA (STRN), gene mapping to 2p22-p21, and preferential expression in brain
Abstract
Rat striatin, a recently discovered calmodulin-binding protein belonging to the WD repeat family, is expressed in neurons, mostly in the striatum and motor and olfactory systems. Striatin is localized in the somato-dendritic compartment of neurons, mainly in the spines. It may play a role in dendritic Ca2+ signaling. Here we report the cloning and sequencing of human striatin cDNA (HGMW-approved symbol STRN), the localization of the gene to chromosome 2p22-p21, and its preferential expression in brain. The human cDNA sequence is predicted to encode a 780-amino-acid protein possessing eight WD repeats. Striatin is highly conserved between rat and human with 96% identity and 98% similarity at the amino acid level. Since the Caenorabditis elegans genome also contains a closely related striatin coding sequence, the function of striatin is likely to be well conserved.

The B′′′ family consists of Striatin, Striatin-3, and Striatin-4, which localize mainly to dendritic spines of the corpus striatum.
“The B”’ family of regulatory subunits is comprised of 3 members: Striatin, Striatin-3 (also known as SG2NA), and Striatin-4 (also known as Zinedin). They are localized primarily in dendritic spines of the corpus striatum, which is an essential component of the motor system (Castets et al., 1996; Moqrich et al., 1998; Salin et al., 1998).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
