Annotation description: | - K+-channel tetramerization domain-containing proteins (KCTDs) are auxiliary GABAB receptor (GBR) subunits. - Experiments were performed at the synaptic connection from medial habenula (MHb) to interpeduncular nucleus (IPN). -Using pre-embedding immunogold labeling, imaged with TEM, KCTD12 showed "particles for KCTD12 were found mostly on the postsynaptic side of asymmetrical synapses and only few synapses exhibited presynaptic KCTD12 labeling along synaptic and extrasynaptic membrane (Figure 3D, Figure 3 - figure supplement 2)" - Figure 2B: immunolabeling of WT and KCTD12 KO mice shows antibody specificity |
