Neuroligin modulates the locomotory dopaminergic and serotonergic neuronal pathways of C. elegans.
Neuroligins are neuronal and neuromuscular transmembrane proteins that have been implicated in autism spectrum disorder and other cognitive diseases. The nlg-1 gene from Caenorhabditis elegans is orthologous to human neuroligin genes. In the nematode, the locomotory rate is mediated by dopaminergic...
