| basic FUNCTION
| may be playing a role in the formation of axon connections in the developing nervous system |
|
may be involved in synaptogenesis |
|
plays an essential role in the formation, maintenance, and plasticity of neuronal networks (Roohi 2009) |
|
CNTN4, CNTN5, CNTN6 play likely roles in brain development in a critical phase of establishing brain systems and their plasticity  |
|
critical and novel roles for CNTN4/APP in promoting target-specific axon arborization, and importance of this process for functional development of a behaviorally relevant parallel visual pathway |
|
role of protein-protein interactions in the potential mechanism of action of CNTN4, -5 and -6 , suggesting that complexes with other membrane proteins may play a role in neuronal developmental functions |
|
plays a crucial role in the formation, maintenance, and plasticity of neuronal networks |
|
CNTN4 regulates dendritic spine density through a mechanism dependent on FnIII domains |
|
is likely essential for promoting dendrite growth and dendritic spine formation |
|
complex of CNTN4 and amyloid precursor protein (APP) is known to guide the assembly of specific circuits in the visual system |
|
CNTN4, CNTN5, and the APP homologs, amyloid beta precursor like protein 1 and amyloid beta precursor like protein 2, may likely also function together in the organization of olfactory tissues |
