    e found that NLGN3 function at inhibitory synapses in rat CA1 depends on the presence of NLGN2 and identified a domain in the extracellular region that accounted for this functional difference between NLGN2 and 3 specifically at inhibitory synapses.

    Data identified the R215H mutant as a loss-of-function mutant in inducing GABAergic synaptogenesis. Data also suggests that defects in GABAergic synapse formation in the brain may be an important contributing factor for the onset of schizophrenia.
