Site-specific phosphorylation of PSD-95 dynamically regulates the postsynaptic density as observed by phase separation

Summary: Postsynaptic density protein 95 is a key scaffolding protein in the postsynaptic density of excitatory glutamatergic neurons, organizing signaling complexes primarily via its three PSD-95/Discs-large/Zona occludens domains. PSD-95 is regulated by phosphorylation, but technical challenges ha...
