The Postsynaptic Architecture of Excitatory Synapses: A More Quantitative View
Abstract
Excitatory (glutamatergic) synapses in the mammalian brain are usually situated on dendritic spines, a postsynaptic microcompartment that also harbors organelles involved in protein synthesis, membrane trafficking, and calcium metabolism. The postsynaptic membrane contains a high concentration of glutamate receptors, associated signaling proteins, and cytoskeletal elements, all assembled by a variety of scaffold proteins into an organized structure called the postsynaptic density (PSD). A complex machine made of hundreds of distinct proteins, the PSD dynamically changes its structure and composition during development and in response to synaptic activity. The molecular size of the PSD and the stoichiometry of many major constituents have been recently measured. The structures of some intact PSD proteins, as well as the spatial arrangement of several proteins within the PSD, have been determined at low resolution by electron microscopy. On the basis of such studies, a more quantitative and geometrically realistic view of PSD architecture is emerging.

“Second, it is present in the brain at extraordinarily high levels, rivaling the levels of cytoskeletal proteins (63–67), suggesting that CaMKII may play a structural role (27, 68).”
From Synaptic memory and CaMKII (2023) · cites this paper as [66]
In the citing paper
“since there are roughly 20–30 NMDARs in the PSD (66, 143) and ∼100 holoenzymes [∼1,200 CaMKII subunits (65)], after NMDAR activation only a small fraction of subunits per holoenzyme would be directly bound to GluN2B.”

“However, actin is largely excluded from the core of the PSD, interacting with such proteins as Shank and SAPAP located in the deeper, cytoplasmic-facing layer of the PSD referred to as the pallium (66, 162, 322).”
From Synaptic memory and CaMKII (2023) · cites this paper as [66]
In the citing paper
“It should be pointed out that, although it is well established that CaMKII phosphorylates numerous synaptic proteins (66, 434–437), as reviewed here, despite intensive research an essential role for CaMKII phosphorylation of many of these targets largely remains elusive.”
From Synaptic memory and CaMKII (2023) · cites this paper as [66]
In the citing paper
“Actin is largely excluded from the core of the PSD (66, 322), and evidence suggests that, at least for the first hour, the changes in spine size are not accompanied by changes in the size of the PSD (56).”
From Synaptic memory and CaMKII (2023) · cites this paper as [66]
In the citing paper
“The geometry of the spine neck determines the rate of calcium efflux into the dendrite shaft and hence the degree of elevation of calcium concentrations within the spine head, following n-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) activation (Bloodgood and Sabatini, 2005; Alvarez and Sabatini, 2007; Sheng and Hoogenraad, 2007).”
From Human Brain/Cloud Interface (2019) · cites this paper as Sheng and Hoogenraad, 2007

“Remarkably, recent evidence points toward the rapid exchange of PSD proteins, such as AMPARS and PSD-95, even between neighboring synapses under steady-state conditions (Sheng and Hoogenraad, 2007).”

“Longer-term changes in the PSD structure and composition (from hours to days) involve altered protein synthesis, either within the neuronal cell body, or dendrites (Sheng and Hoogenraad, 2007).”
From Human Brain/Cloud Interface (2019) · cites this paper as Sheng and Hoogenraad, 2007
In the citing paper
“The PSD dynamically regulates its components through protein phosphorylation, palmitoylation, local protein translation, the ubiquitin-proteasome system for protein degradation, and redistribution of specific proteins (e.g., CaMKIIα, AMPARs) both entering and leaving the PSD (Kim and Ko, 2006; Sheng and Hoogenraad, 2007).”

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.
