STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	22 laminin EGF-like domains
	5 laminin g-like domains
	one laminin IV domain
	one laminin n-terminal domain
	the alpha-helical domains I and II are thought to interact with other laminin chains to form a coiled coil structure

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	extracellular
	plasma membrane
text	extracellular matrix

basic FUNCTION	may be mediating the attachment, migration and organization of cells into tissues during embryonic development by interacting with other extracellular matrix components
	implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (Eastwood 2008)
	plays a role in synapse formation and maintenance
	both the GNG2 and the NTNG2 proteins show an affinity to the claustrum and related formations in the human brain
	NTGN1/LRRC4C, NTGN2/LRRC4 interactions differentially control synaptic plasticity in distinct circuits via retrograde signaling mechanisms
	pre-synaptic NTNG1 and NTNG2 diversify the complexity of vertebrate behaviors and differentially regulate post-synaptic properties
	membrane-anchored protein implicated in the molecular organization of neuronal circuitry and synaptic organization
	required for proper axonal guidance during early brain development and involved in N&
