Annotation description: | Figure 7a-b: Sucrose gradient centrifugation of vesicle-enriched brain lysate (VE) fractions. GABAAR α1 and muskelin-containing vesicles cofractionate with transferrin receptor and Rab-7 containing endosomes (n=3) Figure 7c-d: Muskelin (MKLN1) facilitates degradation of GABAARα1 (GABRA1). DAB signals detected by electron microscopy of hippocampal tissue. Muskelin immunoreactivity labels individual (C, arrow), but not all (crossed arrows) small vesicles. In addition, individual (D, left), but not all (right) multivesicular bodies and/or late endosomes stain positive for muskelin. |
