Annotation description:Figure 4 Legend:

-Literal: "Within puncta of the neuropil, RC3-1 and RC3-5 antisera revealed immunolabeling mainly in dendritic spines (S) forming asymmetrical synaptic junctions with axonal terminals (AT) (C and D)."

Results section: "Ultrastructure of RC3 Neurons."

-Literal: "In puncta, RC3 [neurogranin, nrgn] immunolabeling was observed principally in dendritic shafts and dendritic spines. Dendritic shafts and spine necks contained slight traces of RC3. In contrast, RC3-containing spine heads were the most frequent immunolabeled profiles and had the heaviest deposits of label in all cases (Fig. 4 C and D).
