Annotation description: | Alk is postsynaptically localized at both subclasses of type I boutons. These are characterized by extensive postsynaptic subsynaptic reticulum (SSR; (Atwood, Govind et al. 1993; Jia, Gorczyca et al. 1993)), which harbors the postsynaptic scaffold Discs Large (Dlg) (Lahey, Gorczyca et al. 1994) and glutamate receptors (GluRs) (Fig. 1B,E). |
