Annotation description:Fig.1: "Interaction and co-localization of CPEB-containing cytoplasmic complex proteins"
- "To assess whether these components were co-localized in dendrites, cultured neurons were coimmunostained for symplekin and each other factor and 3D deconvolved images were analyzed (Figure 1G). CPEB, PARN, Gld2 and Ngd were non-randomly co-localized with symplekin (p > 0.95), while GluR1 was not (Figure 1H). "
- "These proteins were also detected in dendritic spines; 3D reconstructions of phalloidin fluorescence (Figure 1J) showed that 23.1% ± 1.24% of spines contained symplekin and 80.1% ± 2.54% of symplekin-positive spines also contained CPEB, Gld2, PARN, or Ngd immunoreactivity (n=40 cells, 1196 spines). These data indicate that the cytoplasmic polyadenylation machinery forms complexes in dendrites and at synapses."
