Synaptic adhesion molecules control neuronal synapse development. In this issue of Neuron, Siddiqui et al. (2013) and de Wit et al. (2013) demonstrate that LRRTM4, a postsynaptic adhesion molecule, trans-synaptically interacts with presynaptic heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) to promote synapse development.
突触黏附分子控制着神经元突触的发育。在本期《神经元》杂志中,Siddiqui 等人(2013)和 de Wit 等人(2013)证明了突触后黏附分子 LRRTM4 与突触前的硫酸乙酰肝素蛋白聚糖(HSPGs)形成跨突触相互作用,从而促进突触的发育。
