Figure(s):Figure 2, 7
Annotation description:Fig.2: "Distribution and subcellular fractionation of GRIP1 and GRIP2 protein in brain"
- Literal: "Treatment of synaptic plasma membrane fractions with various detergents to generate PSD fractions demonstrated that GRIP1 and GRIP2 were enriched in the PSD (Fig.2 e)"

Fig.4: "In vivo and in vitro interaction of full-length GRIP1 and AMPA receptors"
Literal: " These results demonstrate that GRIP1 and GRIP2 can associate with AMPA receptorsin situ in transfected cells and that GRIP1 is associated with AMPA receptors in vivo in brain"

Fig.7: "Immunogold electron microscopy localization of GRIP1 protein in CNS"
- Literal: "Most frequently, the gold clusters appeared in dendrites (Fig. 7 b, arrows) and were typically associated with vesicles, sometimes clearly outlining a vesicular profile. These gold-labeled vesicles were often very close to microtubule filaments. Immunogold label was also found in postsynaptic spines, frequently near the PSD region (Fig. 7 c-e, arrows), and was occasionally found within the PSD (Fig. 7 c,arrows)."

I conclude from this data that when inside a synaptic region (synaptosomal preparation), Grip1 is preferentially localized in the PSD. However, the localization to undefined dendritic compartments may represent additional synapse-associated organelles involved in NTR trafficking.
