CATEGORY

adhesion

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION

basic FUNCTION	brain-specific, homophilic adhesion molecule that is strongly expressed in GABAergic interneurons
	IGSF9B is a key regulator of inhibition in the amygdala
	PRICKLE2 and IGSF9B coordinately regulate the cytoarchitecture of the axon initial segment

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	IGSF9B was linked to neuroligin 2, an inhibitory synaptic adhesion molecule coupled to gephyrin, via the multi-PDZ protein MAGI2
	PRICKLE2 regulates ANK3 distribution by controlling the proper localization of IGSF9B
