About NLGN4X

Cytogenetic location: Xp22.32-p22.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:5,890,042-6,228,867 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 248 orthologues, 13 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 6.8), ovary (RPKM 4.3) and 19 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the type-B carboxylesterase/Lipase protein family. The encoded protein belongs to 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. The encoded protein interacts with discs large homolog 4 (DLG4). Mutations in this gene have been associated with autism and Asperger syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
