| Figure(s): | Figure 1 |
| Annotation description: | Figure 1b: Hippocampal slices cotransfected with HA-ASIC2a showed localization to dendritic shafts and spines. Figure 1d: ASIC2 identified in synaptosomes prepared from Myc-ASIC2a transgenic mice. Figure 2: ASIC2a associates with PSD-95 through its PDZ-binding domain. Figure 3: PSD-95 increases ASIC2a in spines. Figure 5: Endogenous ASIC2 enriches in synaptosomes and coimmunoprecipitates with ASIC1. Figure 8: Eliminating ASIC2 decreases the density of dendritic spines. Based on the known transmembrane topology of this protein, "integral component of ... membrane" term was selected. |
