GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 628758
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Ptk2b
Name: protein tyrosine kinase 2 beta
Acc ID: GO:0043197
Term: dendritic spine
Definition: A small, membranous protrusion from a dendrite that forms a postsynaptic compartment, typically receiving input from a single presynapse. They function as partially isolated biochemical and an electrical compartments. Spine morphology is variable:they can be thin, stubby, mushroom, or branched, with a continuum of intermediate morphologies. They typically terminate in a bulb shape, linked to the dendritic shaft by a restriction. Spine remodeling is though to be involved in synaptic plasticity.
Definition Source(s): GOC:nln
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
