Annotation description: | LRRC4b was enriched in postsynaptic density fractions. 15/01/2018 Pim - Postsynaptic (as opposed to presynatic) localization of the LRRC4b protein is evidenced by the experiments in Fig.4 that show "Direct aggregation of NGL-3 on the surface of dendrites induces coclustering of excitatory postsynaptic proteins." and the known interaction of NGL-3 with PSD-95 (see additional literature). - Based on the known transmembrane topology of the protein, the "integral component of ... membrane" term was chosen. |
