Annotated paper:Simoes S, et al. "Alzheimer's vulnerable brain region relies on a distinct retromer core dedicated to endosomal recycling" Cell Rep. 2021 Dec 28;37(13):110182 PMID:34965419
Figure(s):Fig 2, 4C, S3
Annotation description:Fig 4C shows that reexpression of GFP-VPS26B in VPS26B knock-out neurons the GFP signal overlaps with membrane GluA1 staining, indicating that VPS26B can be localized at (post)synaptic sites.

Fig 2A, C shows colocalization of endogenous VPS26B with somatodendritic early endosome marker EEA1 and recycling endosome markers Syntaxin13 and pulse-chase transferrin.
Fig 2B and Fig S3 confirm these results at the ultrastructural level using immunogold immuno-EM
