Annotation description: | Data in Figure 7 shows live cell labelling with CDH-8 antibodies co-localizes with pre (vGlut) and post synaptic (SynGAP) antigens in cortical neurons in culture. Figure 7C to F indicate CDH-8 immunogold labelling at asymmetrical glutamatergic synapses. The antibodies are subjected to some basic characterization but s the authors point out they lack the quantification to define is the labelling is predominantly pre or post synaptic. 21/8/2017 Pim - membrane association inferred from TM domain. |
