Neuronal CaMKII holoenzymes (α and β isoforms) enable molecular signal computation underlying learning memory but also mediate excitotoxic neuronal death. Here, we provide a comparative analysis of these signaling devices, using single-particle electron microscopy (EM) in combination with biochemical live-cell imaging studies. In the basal state, both isoforms assemble mainly as 12-mers (but 14-mers even 16-mers for isoform). CaMKIIα adopt an ensemble extended activatable states (with average radius 12.6 versus 16.8 nm, respectively), characterized by multiple transient intra- inter-holoenzyme interactions associated distinct functional properties. The state CaMKIIβ allows direct resolution intra-holoenzyme kinase domain dimers. These dimers could cooperative activation calmodulin, which is observed isoforms. High-order clustering mediated dimerization reduced isoform excitotoxicity-induced clusters, vitro neurons.

However, like many marriages, it has had its up downs. Based on the unique biochemical properties CaMKII, was proposed as memory molecule before any physiological linkage made to LTP. reviewed here, convincing CaMKII synaptic physiology behavior took decades.

Synaptic plasticity is a critical process that regulates neuronal activity by allowing neurons to adjust their synaptic strength in response changes activity. Despite the high proximity of excitatory glutamatergic and inhibitory GABAergic postsynaptic zones functional integration within dendritic regions, concurrent has historically been underassessed. Growing evidence for pathological disruptions excitation inhibition (E/I) balance neurological neurodevelopmental disorders indicates need an improved, more "holistic" understanding interplay. There continues be long-standing focus on persistent strengthening (excitatory long-term potentiation; eLTP) its role learning memory, although importance potentiation (iLTP) depression (iLTD) become increasingly apparent. Emerging further points dynamic dialogue between synapses, but much remains understood regarding mechanisms extent this exchange. In mini-review, we explore calcium signaling crosstalk play regulating excitability. We examine current knowledge synapse responses perturbances activity, with induced short-term pharmacological treatments which act either enhance or reduce excitability via ionotropic receptor regulation culture. To delve deeper into potential crosstalk, discuss influence key regulatory proteins, including kinases, phosphatases, structural/scaffolding proteins.

The reduced sleep duration previously observed in Camk2b knockout mice revealed a role for Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII)β as sleep-promoting kinase. However, the underlying mechanism by which CaMKIIβ supports regulation is largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that activation or inhibition of can increase decrease almost 2-fold, supporting core regulator mammals. Importantly, show this depends on activity CaMKIIβ. A mutant mimicking constitutive-active (auto)phosphorylation state promotes transition from awake to state, while mutants subsequent multisite states suppress state.
