| Annotation description: | Figure 4, S5: STED super-resolution microscopy of hippocampal neurons stained for SynDIG4 (PRRT1), TARP-γ8 (CACNG8) and Homer (HOMER1) showed localization of CACNG8 to postsynaptic densities. Based on the known transmembrane topology of this protein, "integral component of ... membrane" term was selected. |
