Summary: Enables mRNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including learning or memory; positive regulation of AMPA receptor activity; and regulation of synaptic plasticity. Located in actin cytoskeleton and extracellular vesicle. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; postsynaptic density membrane; and postsynaptic endosome. Used to study anxiety disorder and morphine dependence. Biomarker of anxiety disorder; middle cerebral artery infarction; and withdrawal disorder. Orthologous to human ARC (activity regulated cytoskeleton associated protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
