Annotation description:Fig.3A: "CNK2 is Required for Dendritic Spine Morphogenesis"
- "As previously reported [25], CNK2 was detected in the dendritic spines of primary hippocampal rat neurons cultured for 18 days in vitro (18 DIV), and it colocalized with the excitatory synaptic marker PSD95 (Figure 3A). Endogenous Vilse also colocalized with PSD95 (Figure 3A) and could be co-immunoprecipitated with CNK2 from lysates of 18 DIV neurons (Figure 3A), confirming the endogenous interaction of these proteins in hippocampal neurons."
