Plasma membrane PI4P recruits SNAP47 to mediate SNARE-dependent AMPAR exocytosis during synaptic potentiation

The synaptic delivery of the AMPA-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs) is crucial for long-term potentiation (LTP) of excitatory synapses, yet the mechanisms underlying neuronal activity-dependent AMPAR exocytosis at the plasma membrane (PM) remain unclear. We previously demonstrated that the PM synthesis of the phosphoinositide PI4P is enhanced upon LTP induction and that PM PI4P, not PI(4,5)P2, is…
