AmiGO 2: Term Details for "postsynaptic recycling endosome" (GO:0098837)

Accession: GO:0098837
Name: postsynaptic recycling endosome
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: postsynaptic recycling outpost, postsynaptic endosomal recycling compartment
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A recycling endosome of the postsynapse. In postsynaptic terminals with dendritic spines, it is typically located at the base of a dendritic spine. It is involved in recycling of neurotransmitter receptors to the postsynaptic membrane. In some cases at least, this recycling is activated by postsynaptic signaling and so can play a role in long term potentiation. Source: PMID:20820847
