CRFR1 and PSD-95 have both been linked to mental illness and psychiatric disease.
Endogenous CRFR1 and PSD-95 interact in cortical mouse brain.
PDZ interactions promote synaptic targeting of CRFR1 to PSD-95 compartment.
PSD-95 suppresses CRFR1 endocytosis and βarrestin-2 recruitment.
PSD-95 is not independently responsible for CRFR1 crosstalk with 5-HT2AR.
