Annotation description:LRRC4 interacts with netrin-G CAMs through its ectodomain in an isoform-specific manner.

- Netrin-G2; NTNG2 is localized at the presynaptic side (see ticket #2322)
- LRRC4 is located at the postsynaptic side (Fig.2; see ticket #2219)
- Adhesion between these proteins is tested in Fig.1C
- Literal: "It is not known whether NGL and netrin-G mediate cell adhesion. L cells transiently expressing NGL-1 and NGL-2 selectively aggregated with cells expressing netrin-G1 and netrin-G2, respectively (Supplementary Fig. 3 online), suggesting that the association between NGL and netrin-G mediates cell adhesion in an isoform-specific manner."
