Sushi repeat-containing protein SRPX2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SRPX2 gene, on the X chromosome. [5] [6] It has roles in glutamatergic synapse formation in the cerebral cortex and is more highly expressed in childhood. [7] Bioinformatics analysis suggests the SRPX2 protein is a peroxiredoxin. [8]
SRPX2 is distributed on synapses throughout the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, largely in the same areas as vesicular glutamate transporter 1 and DLG4. It is involved in synapse formation and is more highly expressed in childhood. Overexpression of SRPX2 results in increased density of vesicular glutamate transporter 1 and DLG4 clusters on cortical neurons. Deficiency results in decreased dendritic spine density of excitatory glutamatergic synapses, while inhibitory GABAergic synapses are unaffected. Length or shape of spines is not affected by SPRX2, however. [7]
Mutations in SRPX2 were linked in one 2006 study to a family with a form of Rolandic epilepsy with intellectual disability and speech dyspraxia, however later studies showed that mutations in SRPX2 do not necessarily lead to epilepsy or intellectual disability. Additionally, no mutations in SRPX2 have been reported with Rolandic epilepsy since. [9] In mice, mutations in SRPX2 lead to decreased frequency of ultrasonic vocalisations in pups when separated from mothers. [7]
FOXP2 directly reduces SRPX2 expression, by binding to its promoter. However, FOXP2 also reduces dendritic length, which SRPX2 does not affect, indicating it has other regulatory roles in dendritic morphology. [7]
EGF, latrophilin and seven transmembrane domain-containing protein 1 is a latrophilin-like orphan receptor of the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor family. In humans this protein is encoded by the ELTD1 gene. ELTD1 appears to have a role in angiogenesis, both physiological and pathological in cancer.
In enzymology, an ADP-specific glucokinase also known as ADP-dependent glucokinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Synaptic Ras GTPase-activating protein 1, also known as synaptic Ras-GAP 1 or SYNGAP1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SYNGAP1 gene. SYNGAP1 is a ras GTPase-activating protein that is critical for the development of cognition and proper synapse function. Mutations in humans can cause intellectual disability, epilepsy, autism and sensory processing deficits.

ATP synthase subunit s-like protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ATP5SL gene.
Inverted formin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the INF2 gene. It belongs to the protein family called the formins. It has two splice isoforms, CAAX which localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and non-CAAX which localizes to focal adhesions and the cytoplasm with enrichment at the Golgi. INF2 plays a role in mitochondrial fission and dorsal stress fiber formation. INF2 accelerates actin nucleation and elongation by interacting with barbed ends of actin filaments, but also accelerates disassembly of actin through encircling and severing filaments.
