Annotation description:The authors describe the localization of N-terminal genetically tagged HA-tagged Latrophilin-3 from the endogenous locus. HA-Latrophilin-3 is expressed postsynaptically in excitatory neurons, a conclusion based on exemplary images shown: In hippocampal cultured neurons, HA-Latrophilin-3 was present in excitatory (positive for CamkIIa) but not inhibitory synapses (Fig. S2a). In slices of the hippocampus, HA-Latrophilin-3 colocalized with excitatory marker vGlut1 in Stratum radiatum of CA1 region (and not with inhibitory marker vGAT) (Fig. 3d, e) and was present in CA1 neurons of S. oriens (Fig. 3b). When HA-Latrophilin-3 was abolished in sparse neurons in cultures (Fig. 1b; Fig. S2b) or in CA1 region of the hippocampus (Fig. 3f,g), these neurons were absent of HA-Latrophilin-3 staining indicating postsynaptic expression.
