General annotation (Comments)

Function

Cell surface protein involved in cell-cell-interactions via its interactions with neurexin family members. Plays a role in synapse function and synaptic signal transmission, and probably mediates its effects by recruiting and clustering other synaptic proteins. May promote the initial formation of synapses, but is not essential for this. In vitro, triggers the de novo formation of presynaptic structures. May be involved in specification of excitatory synapses. Ref.3 Ref.5 Ref.6

Subunit structure

Interacts with NRXN1, NRXN2 and NRXN3. Interacts (via its C-terminus) with DLG4/PSD-95 (via PDZ domain 3). Interacts with AIP1, GOPC and PDZRN3 By similarity. Interacts with NLGN3. Ref.7

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein By similarity. Cell junction › synapse By similarity. Cell junction › synapse › postsynaptic cell membrane › postsynaptic density By similarity. Note: Enriched in synaptic plasma membranes and clustered in synaptic clefts and postsynaptic densities. Detected at dendritic spines. Colocalized with DLG4/PSD-95 and GRIN1/NMDAR1 By similarity. Ref.5

Tissue specificity

Brain and arteries (at protein level). Expressed in olfactory bulb. Detected in brain. Ref.4 Ref.6 Ref.8 Ref.9

Disruption phenotype

No obvious phenotype, but mice present subtle behavorial changes with some deficits in spatial learning and memory. In addition, mice have reduced brain volume. Mice lacking both NLGN1 and NLGN2, or NLGN1 and NLGN3, are viable, but have impaired breathing, drastically reduced reproduction rates and striking deficits in raising their offspring. Mice lacking NLGN1, NLGN2 and NLGN3 are born at the expected Mendelian rate, but die shortly after birth due to respiratory failure. They do not show a significant change in the number of synapses, but synapse function is strongly impaired. Ref.6 Ref.10

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the type-B carboxylesterase/lipase family.

Sequence caution

The sequence BAC65715.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
