| Annotation description: | GABA B2 subunit detection in Globus pallidus synapses. 11/9/2017 Pim - Literal: " At asymmetric synapses, the majority (85%) of the synapse-associated immunogold particles were located at the edges of the synapse (Fig. 5B), accounting for 34% and 51% for pre- and postsynaptic sites, respectively (Fig. 4B), with only 15% located in the main body (Fig. 5A). However, at symmetric synapses, most (89%) GABAB2 immunogold particles were localized in the main body of the synapses (Fig. 5C-E); 41% associated with the presynaptic membrane and 48% with the postsynaptic membrane (Fig. 4B)" |
