Dynamin 3; dnm3
Kiaa0820

DESCRIPTION

Members of the dynamin family, such as DNM3, possess mechanochemical properties involved in actin-membrane processes, predominantly in membrane budding (Orth and McNiven, 2003).

CLONING

By sequencing clones obtained from a size-fractionated brain cDNA library, Nagase et al. (1998) cloned DNM3, which they designated KIAA0820. The deduced protein contains 702 amino acids. RT-PCR ELISA detected very high expression in adult brain and spinal cord and in all specific brain regions examined. Intermediate expression was detected in adult heart, lung, kidney, testis, and ovary and in fetal liver and brain. Low expression was detected in adult liver and pancreas, and little to none was detected in skeletal muscle and spleen.

GENE FUNCTION

Lu et al. (2007) noted that dynamin-3 localizes to postsynaptic spines and binds the postsynaptic adaptor protein Homer (see 604798) (Gray et al., 2003), potentially linking dynamin-3 to the postsynaptic density (PSD) scaffold. Using a combination of live-cell imaging and quantitative light and electron microscopy of rat hippocampal neurons, Lu et al. (2007) demonstrated that dynamin-3 positioned the clathrin (see 118955) endocytic machinery near the PSD through its interaction with the Homer-Shank (see 604999) scaffold complex. Disruption of dynamin-3 uncoupled the PSD from the endocytic zone, leading to loss of synaptic Glur1 (GRIA1; 138248) AMPA receptors, and depressed excitatory synaptic transmission due to failure of endocytosed receptors to locally recycle back to the synapse. Scott et al. (2012) found that intron 13 of the DNM3 gene in rat and human harbors 2 microRNAs (miRNAs), MIR3120 (614722) and MIR214 (610721). MIR3120 is encoded on the same strand as DNM3, and MIR214 overlaps MIR3120 on the opposite strand and is expressed from a different promoter. Northern blot analysis showed that Dnm3, Mir3120, and Mir214 were coexpressed in cultured rat hippocampal neurons. Like Dnm3, Mir3120 appeared to regulate expression of proteins involved in endocytosis of clathrin-coated vesicles.

GENE STRUCTURE

In their Figure 1, Scott et al. (2012) showed that the DNM3 gene contains at least 18 exons. They found that intron 13 harbors the MIR3120 gene in the sense orientation and MIR214, which overlaps MIR1320, in the antisense orientation.

MAPPING

Hartz (2012) mapped the DNM3 gene to chromosome 1q24.3 based on an alignment of the DNM3 sequence (GenBank GENBANK AB020627) with the genomic sequence (GRCh37). ... More on the omim web site
