Changes in synaptic function require both qualitative and quantitative reorganization of the synaptic components. Ca2+plays a central role in this process, but the mechanism has not been fully elucidated. Zhanget alreport a novel mechanism whereby Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM) regulates the stability of the postsynaptic scaffold. Ca2+/CaM interacts with PSD‐95, a core protein in the postsynaptic density (PSD) that supports synaptic signaling and structural components. Ca2+/CaM interferes with the palmitoylation of PSD‐95, resulting in the dissociation of PSD‐95 from the postsynaptic membrane. This process may explain the reduction of surface glutamate receptor observed during synaptic depression and homeostatic regulation of the synaptic response after prolonged neuronal activity.
