Figure(s):Fig.2, 3
Annotation description:Fig.2:
- " Western blotting of subcellular fractions revealed that both drosha and DGCR8 were present in synaptic fractions and, within synaptosomes, were predominantly associated with PSDs (Fig. 2c)."
- "PSD-95 immunoprecipitates contained drosha and DGCR8 (Fig. 2b). "

Fig.3: "Immunolocalization of Drosha in adult mouse hippocampus"
- " Drosha was colocalized with PSD95 within the neuropil of the molecular layer, where the apical dendrites of pyramidal neurons are located (Fig. 3a and b)."
