Annotation description: | Figure 1j, 2: confocal imaging of immunofluorescence labeling for FLRT2, Bassoon (BSN) and PSD-95 (DLG4) in hippocampal neurons from rat brain cryosections showed localization was "opposed to the presynaptic marker Bassoon, confirming a postsynaptic localization." Localization to dendritic spines was confirmed at higher magnification (Fig. 2). Based on the known transmembrane topology of this protein, "integral component of ... membrane" term was selected. |
