    basic FUNCTION
  • neuronal components with a role in the developing or mature vertebrate nervous system
  • play critical roles in the formation and maintenance of the central nervous system
  • its expression in nonneural and neural cells induces both excitatory and inhibitory presynaptic differentiation in contacting axons
  • with LRFN4, may promote synapse formation through distinct mechanism
  • expression of LRFN4, LRFN5 in nonneural and neural cells induces both excitatory and inhibitory presynaptic differentiation in contacting axons
  • LRFN4, LRFN5 possess synaptogenic activity, inducing presynaptic differentiation in contacting axons
