CC -!- FUNCTION: Master regulator of synaptic plasticity that self-assembles
CC into virion-like capsids that encapsulate RNAs and mediate
CC intercellular RNA transfer in the nervous system. ARC protein is
CC released from neurons in extracellular vesicles that mediate the
CC transfer of ARC mRNA into new target cells, where ARC mRNA can undergo
CC activity-dependent translation. ARC capsids are endocytosed and are
CC able to transfer ARC mRNA into the cytoplasm of neurons. Acts as a key
CC regulator of synaptic plasticity: required for protein synthesis-
CC dependent forms of long-term potentiation (LTP) and depression (LTD)
CC and for the formation of long-term memory. Regulates synaptic
CC plasticity by promoting endocytosis of AMPA receptors (AMPARs) in
CC response to synaptic activity: this endocytic pathway maintains levels
CC of surface AMPARs in response to chronic changes in neuronal activity
CC through synaptic scaling, thereby contributing to neuronal homeostasis.
CC Acts as a postsynaptic mediator of activity-dependent synapse
CC elimination in the developing cerebellum by mediating elimination of
CC surplus climbing fiber synapses. Accumulates at weaker synapses,
CC probably to prevent their undesired enhancement. This suggests that
CC ARC-containing virion-like capsids may be required to eliminate
CC synaptic material. Required to transduce experience into long-lasting
CC changes in visual cortex plasticity and for long-term memory (By
CC similarity). Involved in postsynaptic trafficking and processing of
CC amyloid-beta A4 (APP) via interaction with PSEN1 (By similarity). In
CC addition to its role in synapses, also involved in the regulation of
CC the immune system: specifically expressed in skin-migratory dendritic
CC cells and regulates fast dendritic cell migration, thereby regulating
CC T-cell activation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q63053,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9WV31}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homooligomer; homooligomerizes into virion-like capsids
CC (PubMed:25748042). Interacts with SH3GL1/endophilin-2,
CC SH3GL3/endophilin-3 and DNM2/DYN2 (By similarity). Interacts with
CC CAMK2B (in the kinase inactive state); leading to target ARC to
CC inactive synapses (By similarity). Interacts with PSEN1 (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q63053,

CC following interaction with CAMK2B in the kinase inactive state.
CC Accumulation at weaker synapses may be required to prevent their
CC undesired enhancement. Associated with the cell cortex of neuronal soma
CC and dendrites (By similarity). Associated with the sperm tail (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q63053,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9WV31}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The protein is evolutionarily related to retrotransposon Gag
CC proteins: it contains large N- and C-terminal domains that form a bi-
CC lobar architecture similar to the capsid domain of human
CC immunodeficiency virus (HIV) gag protein. It contains structural
CC elements found within viral Gag polyproteins originated from the
CC Ty3/gypsy retrotransposon family and retains the ability to form
CC virion-like capsid structures that can mediate mRNA transfer between
CC cells. Tetrapod and fly Arc protein-coding genes originated
CC independently from distinct lineages of Ty3/gypsy retrotransposons.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q63053}.
CC -!- PTM: Palmitoylation anchors the protein into the membrane by allowing
CC direct insertion into the hydrophobic core of the lipid bilayer.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9WV31}.
CC -!- PTM: Ubiquitinated by UBE3A, leading to its degradation by the
CC proteasome, thereby promoting AMPA receptors (AMPARs) expression at
CC synapses. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9WV31}.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylation at Ser-260 by CaMK2 prevents homooligomerization
CC into virion-like capsids by disrupting an interaction surface essential
CC for high-order oligomerization. Phosphorylation by CaMK2 inhibits
CC synaptic activity. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9WV31}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ARC/ARG3.1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
