ABSTRACT Neurexins and neuroligins are heterophilic cell adhesion molecules which interact with the cytoskeleton and play a role in synaptogenesis. However, they are also expressed prior to synapse formation, suggestive of additional functions. Other neuronally expressed cell adhesion molecules play a role in promoting neurite outgrowth in addition to their adhesive functions. Here, we demonstrate a novel role for neuroligin 1 in promoting neurite outgrowth in N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells. Further, we identify both the acetylcholinesterase-like domain and PDZ motif as essential requirements for this process. We demonstrate that neuroligin 2 and neurexin 1β can produce the cytoskeletal rearrangements required for neurite outgrowth in N1E-115 ...
