Background

SLITRK2 (Slit and Trk-like family member 2) is an approximately 110 kDa type I transmembrane member of the SLITRK family of proteins which contain a slit-like extracellular region and a Trk-like cytoplasmic region (1). The extracellular domain (ECD) of mature mouse SLITRK2 contains 6 leucine rich repeats (LRR) followed by a C-terminal LRR domain, followed by 6 more LRR flanked by a pair of N- and C-terminal LRR domains (2, 3). Within the ECD, mouse SLITRK2 shares 98% and 99% amino acid sequence identity with human and rat SLITRK2, respectively. SLITRK2 is expressed in multiple regions of the brain, particularly the cerebral cortex and hippocampus (4). It can suppress neurite outgrowth and promote the formation of excitatory and inhibitory presynaptic structures (3-5). The synaptogenic function is dependent on the interaction of SLITRK2 with select isoforms of PTP-sigma (5, 6). In humans, mutations of SLITRK2 are associated with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia (7, 8).
