  • synaptic
  • mitochondrial carrier protein
  • basic FUNCTION
  • integrating active zone proteins and synaptic vesicles into a molecular scaffold that controls neurotransmitters release
  • regulating vesicle exocytosis during short-term plasticity
  • RIMS1 and RIMS2 are multidomain active zone proteins of presynaptic terminals
  • RIMS1 and RIMS2 are not essential for synapse formation or synaptic exocytosis, but are required for normal Ca(2+)-triggering of exocytosis
  • component of the presynaptic active zone and modulator of exocytosis
  • piccolo, RIMS2, RIMS3, are involved in the neurobiology of schizophrenia
  • determines docking and priming states in insulin granule exocytosis
  • RIMS1, and RIMS2 co-ordinately regulate key functions for fast transmitter release, enabling a high presynaptic CaČ+ channel density and vesicle docking at the presynaptic active zone
  • mediate pyrimidine exchange in and out of vesicles
  • is a pyrimidine exchanger with an additional unique function in promoting mitochondrial iron utilization
  • plays an important role in maintaining the normal synaptic connection at the ribbon synapse of the photoreceptors
  • role of RIMS2 in regulating synaptic membrane exocytosis in the brain, pancreas, and photoreceptors

  • RAB3A
  • interacting with RIMBP2 and BZRAP1
  • contributes to the stabilization of CACNA1D gating kinetics in immature cochlear inner hair cell
  • PNKD interacts with synaptic active zone proteins Rab3-interacting molecule (RIMS1) and RIMS2, localizes to synapses, and modulates neurotransmitter release
