Figure 12

Model of the association between Nlg and NMDA receptor transport packets (NRTPs) during transport. NRTPs cycle with the plasma membrane (pale arrows) during pauses of microtubule-dependent transport (yellow arrows). These can be associated with clusters of Nlg (red) at the membrane both during transport and pausing. The interaction between surface Nlg and NRTPs is likely via membrane-associated guanylate kinases (orange beads on a string).
