About NLGN3

Cytogenetic location: Xq13.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:71,144,841-71,175,307 (from NCBI)

This gene has 21 transcripts (splice variants), 245 orthologues, 13 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 14.8), adrenal (RPKM 2.6) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a family of neuronal cell surface proteins. Members of this family may act as splice site-specific ligands for beta-neurexins and may be involved in the formation and remodeling of central nervous system synapses. Mutations in this gene may be associated with autism and Asperger syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
