NTNG1 and Anxiety: Further analysis (Fig. 5C–E) revealed skipped exon events for a number of genes associated with various neuronal functions, including Rho GTPase Activating Protein 17(Arhgap17 or Nadrin), a GTPase-activating protein regulates calcium dependent exocytosis in nerve endings48, Doublecortin-like kinase 1(Dclk1), which plays important roles in neurogenesis and neural plasticity49, Calcium Voltage-Gated Channel Subunit Alpha1E (Cacna1e), involved in neurotransmitter release50,51, and Netrin G1 (Ntng1), a cell adhesion molecule involved in regulating fear and anxiety behaviors52.
