Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionnrx-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of neurexins, presynaptic transmembrane neural adhesion molecules that contain extracellular laminin and EGF domains and play a critical role in synaptic development; genetic analyses suggest that nrx-1 may play a role in regulation of adult lifespan; nrx-1 expression is controlled by daf-2 and daf-16.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00030810

Automated_descriptionInvolved in negative regulation of receptor clustering. Located in presynaptic active zone. Expressed in GABAergic neurons; cholinergic neurons; nervous system; and ventral cord neurons. Used to study autism spectrum disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Pitt-Hopkins-like syndrome 2. Is an ortholog of human NRXN1 (neurexin 1) and NRXN3 (neurexin 3).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Disease_relevanceAbnormalities in the genes encoding human Neuroligins (NLGN1,NLGN2, NLGN3, NLGN4) and Neurexins (NRXN1) are associated with Autism spectrum disorders; mutations in the elegans neurexin (nrx-1) suppress neuroligin (nlg-1) defects; nrx-1 is involved in sensory functions and adult life span and along with nrx-1 mediates a retrograde synaptic signal that inhibits neurotransmitter release at neuromuscular junctions.Homo sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00028987

Reference (40)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
