Annotated paper:Catsburg LA, et al. "Dynamics and nanoscale organization of the postsynaptic endocytic zone at excitatory synapses" Elife. 2022 Jan 24;11:e74387 PMID:35072626
Figure(s):Figures 4, 5
Annotation description:Figure 4: Confocal imaging of hippocampal neuronal cultures with co-staining for Homer1c-mCherry and Amph1-pmCherryN1 (AMPH, Amphiphysin) show this protein is localized at the postsynapse.

Figure 5: time-lapse experiments on neurons co-expressing Homer1c and fluorophore-tagged AMPH showed transient association with endocytic zones near the PSD, i.e. its average lifetime at perisynaptic sites was significantly lower compared to the average lifetime of CLCa.
