Annotation description:Fig.3: "Reduced AMPAR-mediated glutamatergic synaptic transmission with aberrant dendritic spine morphology in PSD-Zip70KO mice"

Fig.4: "Decrease in mature spine synapses and aberrant activation of Rap2 in PSD-Zip70KO neurons"

Fig.6: "PSD-Zip70 modulates Rap2 activity via SPAR- and PDZ-GEF1"

Fig.7: "PSD-Zip70 regulates spine morphology via modulation of the Rap2 activity"
- "In contrast, depleting all of the Rap2 subtypes (Rap2a, b, and c) or both PDZ-GEF1 and PDZ-GEF2 could recover the spine-morphology defects of PSD-Zip70KO neurons (Fig. 7d-f)."
