Annotation description: | Localization of the fetal nACHR subunit epsylon to motor endplates (stained with alpha-BTX) is shown with an anti-epsilon anitbody. The localization of the epsilon-containing nACHR under study is without a single doubt in the postsynaptic specialization membrane. - Based on the known transmembrane topology of the protein, the "integral component of ... membrane" term was chosen. |
