Example sentences for: postsynaptic
How can you use “postsynaptic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
PKCβ colocalizes with gravin at the postsynaptic membrane where the gravin staining is strongest.
More, Ib inhibitory postsynaptic potentials in MNs also decline in sustained muscular contractions, and the gain of force feedback loop is reduced.
Our interest in PKA and PKC activity in the NMJ derives from: (1) a report that RIα not only is enriched there, but also appears to be tethered to the postsynaptic membrane [ 19 ] , (2) the rich literature describing selective PKC isoform activity and functional compartmentalization in the NMJ and skeletal muscle, (3) our discoveries that D-AKAP1 and D-AKAP2 bind to and appear to colocalize with RIα, and often mitochondria [ 15 16 28 ] ; and (4) our finding that gravin binds to both PKA and PKC [ 13 ] .
As with PKCβ, gravin was seen to be directed to the postsynaptic membrane.
PKA association with mitochondria has been well documented [ 38 39 40 41 42 ] . In mammalian sperm, it was found that nearly all RII-specific labeling was with mitochondria [ 43 ] . Furthermore, in bovine heart, PKA activity was detected in the matrix or the matrix side of the mitochondrial inner membrane [ 44 45 ] . However, the work of Halestrap and coworkers provided little evidence for intramitochondrial protein phosphorylation by PKA, but gave some evidence for outer membrane phosphorylation, both integral and loosely bound proteins [ 46 47 48 ] . The localization of RIIα to the postsynaptic region beyond the postsynaptic membrane is consistent with part of the immunostaining of NMJs in the soleus muscle [ 18 ] , yet differs in part because there is no overlap with the bungarotoxin label; however, this is in agreement with another study [ 17 ] .
