Solution structure of the PDZ domain of human KIAA0340 protein

Disease

[RIMS1_HUMAN] Defects in RIMS1 may be a cause of cone-rod dystrophy type 7 (CORD7) [MIM:603649]. CORDs are inherited retinal dystrophies belonging to the group of pigmentary retinopathies. CORDs are characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination, predominantly in the macular region, and initial loss of cone photoreceptors followed by rod degeneration. This leads to decreased visual acuity and sensitivity in the central visual field, followed by loss of peripheral vision. Severe loss of vision occurs earlier than in retinitis pigmentosa.[1]

Function

[RIMS1_HUMAN] Rab effector involved in exocytosis. May act as scaffold protein that regulates neurotransmitter release at the active zone. Essential for maintaining normal probability of neurotransmitter release and for regulating release during short-term synaptic plasticity (By similarity).

About this Structure
