Nlgn4l

Nlgn4l (Neuroligin 4 X-Linked) is a Protein Coding gene. 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. Diseases associated with Nlgn4l include Autism X-Linked 2 and Asperger Syndrome, X-Linked 2.
