Neurexin-related cell adhesion and synaptic protein
IPR050372
Definition
This family of proteins is involved in various aspects of neural development and function, including cell recognition, cell adhesion, synaptic junction formation, and signal transmission. Members of this family are typically found on the neuronal cell surface and play roles in the formation and maintenance of synaptic connections by interacting with other proteins such as neuroligins. They are also implicated in the organization of myelinated axons and may influence neurotransmitter release and postsynaptic receptor regulation. Some members are involved in the structural maturation of synapses and may participate in the modulation of growth factor signaling, as well as the regulation of calcium ion homeostasis in neurons.
