The membrane component of the postsynaptic specialization. This is the region of the postsynaptic membrane in which the population of neurotransmitter receptors involved in synaptic transmission are concentrated. [GOC:dos]
The postsynaptic specialization membrane is a highly specialized region of the plasma membrane of a neuron that receives signals from presynaptic neurons. It is characterized by a dense accumulation of proteins that are involved in the transmission of synaptic signals. These proteins include:
- **Neurotransmitter receptors:** These proteins bind to neurotransmitters released from the presynaptic terminal, triggering a change in the postsynaptic neuron's membrane potential.
- **Scaffolding proteins:** These proteins provide structural support to the postsynaptic specialization and help to organize the other proteins involved in synaptic transmission.
- **Signaling proteins:** These proteins are involved in the intracellular signaling pathways that are activated by neurotransmitter binding.
The postsynaptic specialization membrane is further organized into distinct subdomains, including:
- **The postsynaptic density (PSD):** This is a dense, electron-dense structure that is located beneath the plasma membrane. It is composed primarily of scaffolding proteins and neurotransmitter receptors.
- **The active zone:** This is a specialized region of the presynaptic terminal that contains the machinery for neurotransmitter release.
- **The synaptic cleft:** This is the narrow space between the presynaptic and postsynaptic membranes. It is filled with extracellular matrix proteins that help to stabilize the synapse and facilitate neurotransmitter diffusion.
The precise composition and organization of the postsynaptic specialization membrane varies depending on the type of synapse. However, all postsynaptic specializations share the common features of being enriched in proteins that are involved in the transmission of synaptic signals.'

clozapine | clozapine : A benzodiazepine that is 5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepine substituted by a chloro group at position 8 and a 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl group at position 11. It is a second generation antipsychotic used in the treatment of psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia. Clozapine: A tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A/2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity. Agranulocytosis is a major adverse effect associated with administration of this agent. | benzodiazepine; N-arylpiperazine; N-methylpiperazine; organochlorine compound | adrenergic antagonist; dopaminergic antagonist; EC 3.4.21.26 (prolyl oligopeptidase) inhibitor; environmental contaminant; GABA antagonist; histamine antagonist; muscarinic antagonist; second generation antipsychotic; serotonergic antagonist; xenobiotic |
