Annotation description:Figure 1a-b: authors developed an assay to image the surface expressed pool of mGluR5 (GRM5) in live cells and observe agonist-induced mGluR5 internalization in dendritic spines of hippocampal neurons.

Figure 1j: the expression of a dominant-negative form of Dynamin2 (DNM2 / Dyn2), Dynamin2-K44A (Dyn2-K44A), reduced agonist-induced internalization of mGluR5 in dendritic spines.
