Abstract:BACKGROUND: Neuroligin (NLG) protein is a nerve cell adhesion molecule and plays a key role in the precision apposition of presynaptic domains on inhibitory and excitatory synapses. Existing studies mainly focused on the function of NLG3 against the excitatory channel. However, the interaction between insect NLG3 and ionotropic GABA receptor, which is the main inhibitory channel, remains unclear. In this study, the Nlg3 of common cutworm (CCW), Spodoptera litura Fabricius, one important agricultural Lepidopter… Show more
