N2 - A yeast two-hybrid screen revealed that regulatory subunits (RII) of PKAII bind the Yotiao protein. Yotiao interacts with the NR1 subunit of the NMDA receptor. A purified C-terminal fragment of Yotiao binds PKAII, via an RII binding site constituted by amino acid residues 1452-1469, with a dissociation constant (K(d)) between 50 and 90 nM in vitro. A stable complex composed of Yotiao, RII and NR1 was immunoprecipitated from whole rat brain extracts. Immunostaining analysis disclosed that Yotiao, RIIβ and NR1 colocalize in striatal and cerebellar neurons. Co-assembly of Yotiao/PKAII complexes with NR1 subunits may promote cAMP-dependent modulation of NMDA receptor activity at synapses, thereby influencing brain development and synaptic plasticity.
