| Abstract | Recent work has shown substantial alterations in NMDA receptor subunit expression, assembly, and phosphorylation in the dopamine-depleted striatum of a rodent 6-hydroxydopamine model of Parkinson’s disease. These modifications are hypothesized to result from the trafficking of NMDA receptors between subcellular compartments. Here we show that in rat striatal tissues the NR2A and NR2B subunits in the synaptosomal membrane, and not those in the light membrane and synaptic vesicle-enriched compartments, are tyrosine phosphorylated. The dopamine D1 receptor agonist SKF-82958 produces (1) an increase in NR1, NR2A, and NR2B proteins in the synaptosomal membrane fraction; (2) a decrease in NR1, NR2A, and NR2B proteins in the light membrane and synaptic vesicleenriched fractions; and (3) an increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of NR2A and NR2B in the synaptosomal membrane |
