PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	extracellular domains containing two clusters of LRRs (13 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats)
	extracellular domain is secreted and this process is activated by protein kinase C and inhibited by an inhibitor of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (ADAM17)(Kajiwara 2009)

ortholog to murine Slitrk1

FAMILY

SLITRK family

CATEGORY

regulatory

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
text	integral to membrane

basic FUNCTION	enhancing neurite outgrowth and involved in neuronal differentiation
	role of SLIRTK1 in developmental neuropsychiatric conditions (Kajiwara 2009)
	contributes to the development of corticostriatal-thalamocortical circuits
	implicated in mediating basic neuronal processes, ranging from neurite outgrowth and dendritic elaboration to neuronal survival
	SLITRK1, SLITRK2, SLITK3, SLITRK4, SLITRK5 and SLITRK6 are differentially localized to distinct synapse types and regulate the formation of the respective synapses in an isoform-dependent manner
	SLITRK1, SLITRK2, SLITRK4, and SLITRK5 specifically acted at excitatory synapses in various functional assays
