Annotation description: | Fig.6: "Cryostat section of the bovine retina double immunolabeled with mouse monoclonal antibodies against Cask and rabbit polyclonal antibodies against Caskin1" Fig.7: "The large Caskin1-immunolabeled structures in the OPL represent cone synapses as shown by double-labeling with fluorophore-labeled peanut agglutinin (PNA)" Conclusion: "The function of Caskin1 in synapses is not yet known. Its interaction with Cask and its biochemical properties suggest a function at the presynaptic active zone (Stafford et al., 2011a, 2011b; Tabuchi et al., 2002). In agreement with this assumption, we found Caskin1 enriched in the synaptic layers of the retina, similar as in the brain (Tabuchi et al., 2002), and located in a punctate manner with Cask close to the active zone protein RIM1/2." |
