Annotation description: | A new antibody specific for the C-terminus of mGluR7 was raised and shown to react to mGluR7. EM of rat brain sections showed that mGluR7 was presynaptically localized to asymmetric synapses, though there were a few instances of postnsynaptic localization. 20/11/2017 Pim - Based on the known transmembrane topology of the protein, the "integral component of ... membrane" term was chosen. |
