A novel function of neuroligin 3: Beyond sociality, Regulating lifespan in Drosophila
Neuroligins are conserved postsynaptic adhesion proteins involved in synaptic function and behaviour. In Drosophila melanogaster, Neuroligin 3 (Nlg3) regulates social behaviour, sleep and synaptic architecture. We now report, through analysis of publicly available transcriptomics data, confirmed with RT-qPCR data, that loss-of-function of the nlg3 gene downregulates the expression of…
