Annotation description: | Background: this paper reports on the non-conventional role of postsynaptic Nrxn1; neurexin 1 beta in negatively regulating the ability to induce presynaptic differentiation of neuroligin 1. Fig.3: "cis-expression of neurexins reduces synaptogenic activity of neuroligin-1 in hippocampal neurons" Fig.4: "cis-expressed neurexins directly block synaptogenic activity of neuroligin-1" Fig.5: "β-Neurexin overexpression results in upregulation of neuroligins in cis" Fig.6: "Dendritic neurexin expression reduces vGlut1 clustering and neurexin binding in dissociated hippocampal neurons" |
