| Annotation description: | Fig.4: "Electron micrographs of the cerebellar cortex showing immunoreactivity for SK2 during postnatal development as detected using a pre-embedding immunogold method." - "At P21, the highest density of SK2 immunoparticles was detected along the extrasynaptic plasma membrane of PC dendritic spines, followed by dendritic shafts (Figures 4K-L; Table Table1).1). At the presynaptic level, immunolabelling for SK2 was identifiable in PF synapses and their terminals (Figures 4M-N; Table Table1).1)." 27/3/2018 Pim - Based on the known transmembrane topology of the protein, the "integral component of ... membrane" term was chosen. |
