Annotation description:Fig.2: "Calponin and caldesmon immunoreactivity are postsynaptic."
- "(a-c) Calponin-immunolabelling is particularly enriched in dendritic spines (Sp) where it is localised between the sacks of the spine apparatus (large arrow), and in the plasma membrane of neurones such as the cell cortex (small arrows) and the post-synaptic density (white arrow). Acidic Cp-immunoreactivity is present as scattered deposits in the subsynaptic web of both asymmetric (b) and symmetric (c) synapses suggesting that the function of this protein is not dependent on the type of synapses."
