| Model Summary |
Neuroligin 2 (Nlg2) is a transmembrane protein that interacts with presynaptic Nrx-1, and recruits scaffolding proteins for organization of postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptors. Nlg2 functions in synaptic growth and regulation, and is involved in the modulation of social and courtship behavior. |
