Gene: [00.0/NRXN1] neurexin I alpha/beta;
|
COM |
Neurexins (see also GEM:00.0/NRXN2 and GEM:00.0/NRXN3) are polymorphic cell surface proteins that are expressed in neurons (Ushkaryov-1992). Each neurexin gene has 2 independent promoters which generate 2 classes of mRNAs: the longer mRNAs encode alpha-neurexins and the shorter mRNAs encode beta-neurexins (Ichtchenko-1995). The the total number of neurexin isoforms in brain probably exceeds 2,000 (Ullrich-1995)." |
