The neurexin1 gene (NRXN1) encodes a presynaptic adhesion molecule that plays a critical role in synapse formation, maintenance, and function. Copy-number variants (CNVs) affecting the NRXN1 locus, including submicroscopic deletions, represent rare variant acting as a predisposition for neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Pitt-Hopkins-like syndrome type 2 (MIM #614325) and susceptibility to schizophrenia (MIM...
