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.
