Annotated paper:Brouwer M, et al. "SALM1 controls synapse development by promoting F-actin/PIP2-dependent Neurexin clustering" EMBO J. 2019 Sep 2;38(17):e101289 PMID:31368584
Figure(s):Fig2
Annotation description:Fig 2A-B: Immunocytochemical study demonstrates colocalization (~90%) of endogenous SALM1 (green) with postsynaptic excitatory synapse marker Homer (red).
FigC: Higher magnification indicates SALM1 puncta partially overlapping with postsynaptic Homer puncta.
Fig D-E: Electron micrographs showing subsynaptic localization of endogenous SALM1 in mouse hippocampal brain slices. SALM1 immunogold particles are detected in postsynapses (indicated by cyan and blue arrows) and were less abundantly detected in postsynaptic terminals (~40%).
