Annotation description:Fig.1: "Expression pattern of Kcnab2 transcripts encoding for the Kvβ2 protein in the developing CNS"
- "On ultrastructural level Kvβ2 is located at postsynaptic sites in the PSD, visualized by pre-embedded immuno-electron microscopy (Fig. 1G). In subfractions of rat brain protein lysate Kvβ2 is present in all fractions except mitochondria and is enriched in the postsynaptic density. "
