This gene is a member of the neurexophilin family and encodes a secreted protein with a variable N-terminal domain, a highly conserved, N-glycosylated central domain, a short linker region, and a cysteine-rich C-terminal domain. This protein forms a very tight complex with alpha neurexins, a group of proteins that promote adhesion between dendrites and axons. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],function:May be signaling molecules that resemble neuropeptides and that act by binding to alpha-neurexins and possibly other receptors .,similarity:Belongs to the neurexophilin family.,
