GONUTS is under stress! The website is currently experiencing long-wait times and frequent time-outs due to the record number of students, groups, and annotations related to CACAO this semester. We are currently working on increasing performance -- please accept our apologies for the technical difficulties.
You can help reduce stress on the server by:
- not reloading pages frequently - this just adds
- opening links in new windows (so you can read the old page)

Immunofluorescence was used: Figure 3A and B showed NL4 localizes in transfected COS-7 cells (from rat hippocampus) to plasma membrane, whereas the mutant NL4 localizes in the ER. Calnexin is an ER marker (Figure 3A) and Gm130 is a cis-Golgi marker (Figure 3B). Wild type did not overlap with either calnexin and GM130 (Figure 3A and B). |

Used surface biotinylation assay in transfected HEK293 cells to investigate surface exposure of NL4. Figure 3C showed more biotinlyated surface in wild type than mutant. |

IDA: Inferred from Direct Assay |
C |
Transfected rat hippocampal neurons (COS-7 cells) and immunocytochemistry was used. Figure 4A showed cultured hippocampus cells; the wild type expression of NL4 was seen in the dendrites. MAP2 is a dendritic marker therefore overlap was seen between wild type NL4 and MAP2 but this was not seen in the mutant NL4. No overlap was seen between the wild type with cis-Golgi marker GM120 (Figure 4B) and synaptic vesicle marker Syt-1 (Figure 4C). |

synapse assembly |

P |
Measure ability to induce synapse formation in transfected COS-7 rat hippocampal neuronal cells (immunofluorescence). Figure 5 shows COS cell with wild type NL4 was fully active which induced synapse formation but no synapse formation was seen in the mutant. (formation of synapse was measured by fluorescence intensity of synaptotagmin-1 which is involved in synaptic formation) |

postsynaptic density |
IDA: Inferred from Direct Assay |
C |
Immunofluorescence was used in COS-7 rat hippocampal neuronal cells. Figure 6A shows the over expression of wild type NL4 expressed in postsynaptic spines (NL4 fluorescent overlaps with synapsin which has a role in regulation of synapse) whereas mutant NL4 showed no formation of postsynaptic spines. Also figure 6B shows high density of postsynaptic spines in COS-7 cells that have wild type NL4 compared to mutant NL4. |

regulation of excitatory postsynaptic membrane potential |
IDA: Inferred from Direct Assay |
P |
Electrophysiological recordings of mEPSC and mIPSC where used which were stimulated by action potentials. Figure 7A showed that wild type NL4 suppressed the frequency of mEPSC but not mIPSC in figure 7B. However the mutant NL4 did not suppress mEPSC or the mIPSC. Similar results are seen in figure 8A and B where the amplitude was measured. The wild type decreased the amplitude for mEPSC but not mIPSC and the mutant NL4 did not decrease the amplitude of mEPSC or mIPSC. Resulting into the mutant being non-active. (Another possible GO term to create can be negative regulation of excitatory postsynaptic membrane potential) |
