| Annotation description: | Fig.2: "Expression profiles of dopamine receptors in the striatum" - "In MSNs, the density of cell membrane-attached metal particles for D1R and D2R was comparably high in the soma, dendritic shaft, and dendritic spines (Fig. 2 A-C). In the neuropil, weak immunolabeling for D1R and D2R was also observed in terminals forming symmetric-but not asymmetric-synapses (Fig. 2C)." - Based on the known transmembrane topology of the protein, the "integral component of ... membrane" term was chosen. |
