Annotated paper:Loebrich S, et al. "CPG2 Recruits Endophilin B2 to the Cytoskeleton for Activity-Dependent Endocytosis of Synaptic Glutamate Receptors" Curr Biol. 2016 Feb 8;26(3):296-308 PMID:26776730
Figure(s):Fig.3, 5
Annotation description:Fig.3: "Endogenous CPG2 and Endogenous EndoB2 Co-localize and Bind Each Other at Synapses"
- "Consistent with the role of both proteins in synaptic CME, endogenous EndoB2 and CPG2 co-localized in dendritic spines (Figure 3A)"

Fig.5: "CPG2 and EndoB2 Co-localize and Recruit Components of the Endocytic Machinery to F-Actin"
- "Triple labeling of V5-EndoB2, clathrin-GFP, and PSD95-tdTomato expressed in cultured neurons, revealed that EndoB2 and clathrin co-localize in the direct vicinity of the postsynaptic density (Figure 5A). Further, CPG2 was found to co-localize with endogenous clathrin in dendritic spines (Figure 5B). These results show that CPG2, clathrin heavy chain, and EndoB2 co-localize at the endocytic zone in postsynaptic compartments."
