<scene name='82/829346/Lrrtm2/3'>LRRTM2</scene> is a transmembrane protein that can be found in human neurons. It functions as postsynaptic organizers that induce excitatory synapses. LRRTM2 is prominently expressed in deep layers (hippocampal neurons mostly), rather than superficial layers, of the cerebral cortex. LRRTM2 specifically localizes in excitatory synapses, and not in inhibitory synapses. In addition, LRRTMs interact with neurexins[http://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Neurexin]to bridge the synaptic cleft. | <scene name='82/829346/Lrrtm2/3'>LRRTM2</scene> is a transmembrane protein that can be found in human neurons.
