Annotation description:Fig. 6: Liprin-alpha 1 overexpression was shown to disrupt dendritic clustering and surface expression of AMPA receptors. Cultured hippocampal neurons were transfected at DIV14 with either liprin-alpha-1A or liprin-alpha 1, and doubled labeled at DIV20 for overexpressed liprin-alpha 1 and endogenous GluR2/3, endogenous PSD-95, endogenous surface GluR1, or endogenous surface GluR2. Transfected neurons were detected using anti- liprin- alpha 1 antibodies at a low dilution that allowed visualization of cells overexpressing liprin-alpha 1, but not of endogenous liprin- alpha1in untransfected cells.

Fig. 7: Liprin-alpha1A was shown to inhibit surface expression of GluR2 but Not GluR1. The same methodology of Fig. 6 was used with cells triple labeled for overexpressed liprin-alpha1 or liprin-alpha1A, surface HA-GluR1 or surface HA-GluR2, and intracellular HA-GluR1 or HA-GluR2.
The mammalian expression constructs for liprin-alpha 1 and liprin-alpha 1A and the mouse monoclonal liprin-alpha 1 antibody (1.77) were used from Serra-Pages et al., 1995.
