Figure(s):Figs. 4,5
Annotation description:By immunoelectron microscopy eIF-4E immunoreactivity was revealed to be localized to the postsynaptic sites, especially to the microvesicle-like structures underneath the postsynaptic membrane in the spine, some of which were localized in close proximity to PSD of type 1 synapses.
