Annotated paper: | Budreck EC, et al. "Neuroligin-3 is a neuronal adhesion protein at GABAergic and glutamatergic synapses" Eur J Neurosci. 2007 Oct;26(7):1738-48 PMID:17897391 |
Figure(s): | Fig.5 |
Annotation description: | Fig.5: "Neurexin promotes coaggregation of NL3 with glutamatergic and GABAergic postsynaptic scaffolds." Note: this data is correlational in nature. The annotation relies on the known ability of neurexin-1 to induce clustering and postsynaptic differentiation via neuroligins. |
