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 |
