Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables cell-cell adhesion mediator activity; enzyme inhibitor activity; and neurexin family protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cold-induced thermogenesis; regulation of synapse assembly; and synapse assembly. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chemical synaptic transmission; positive regulation of protein localization to synapse; and positive regulation of synapse assembly. Located in cell surface; postsynaptic density; and postsynaptic membrane. Part of protein-containing complex. Is active in several cellular components, including GABA-ergic synapse; lipid droplet; and postsynaptic density membrane. Is expressed in brain; central nervous system; cerebellum; dentate gyrus subgranular zone; and testis. Orthologous to human CLSTN3 (calsyntenin 3).
