Quick Reference
An alternatively spliced form of guanine deaminase (cytosolic PSD-95 interactor) that in neurons promotes an increase in dendrite numbers, an activity dependent on enzyme activity. It interacts with PSD-95 (See postsynaptic protein), and binds tubulin via its CRMP homology domain to promote microtubule assembly, an interaction blocked by snapin.
