FunFam 2: Eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Dendritic spine GO:0043197
A small, membranous protrusion from a dendrite that forms a postsynaptic compartment - typically receiving input from a single presynapse.

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.
