Synaptic Signalling Pathways Identified in MetaProteome of T. californica. Predicted presynaptic terminal, postsynaptic terminal, and glial proteins present in the T. californica Metaproteome, are shown in blue. These newly identified proteins include the majority of proteins involved in synaptic vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis and proteins specific to glutamatergic and GABAergic synapses, as well as proteins specific to glial and postsynaptic signalling pathways. Previously available synaptic signalling pathways, consisting primarily of the cholinergic pathways of the electric organ, shown in black. These T. californica proteins were identified as having at least 60% identity and 50% coverage to their H. sapiens counterparts
