Annotation description: | eIF4B is found dendritically (near but doesn't co-localize completely with synaptophysin) in hippocampal primary neurons by immunofluorescence. 24/9/2017 Pim - Authors refer to the localization as 'synapto-dendritic". - A role for eIF4B phosphorylation in LTP induction is concluded, but to my opinion this is purely correlational and therefore would refrain from annotating this. |
