GO Term : GO:0072556 other organism presynaptic membrane GO

Namespace:  cellular_component Obsolete:  false
description  A presynaptic membrane that is part of another organism, i.e. a secondary organism with which the first organism is interacting. A presynaptic membrane is specialized area of membrane of the axon terminal that faces the plasma membrane of the neuron or muscle fiber with which the axon terminal establishes a synaptic junction; many synaptic junctions exhibit structural presynaptic characteristics, such as conical, electron-dense internal protrusions, that distinguish it from the remainder of the axon plasma membrane.

GO:0005575 cellular_component The part of a cell or its extracellular environment in which a gene product is located. A gene product may be located in one or more parts of a cell and its location may be as specific as a particular macromolecular complex, that is, a stable, persistent association of macromolecules that function together.
