text: Synaptic cell adhesion molecules are increasingly gaining attention for conferring
specific properties to individual synapses. Netrin-G1 and netrin-G2 are trans-synaptic
adhesion molecules that distribute on distinct axons, and their presence restricts
the expression of their cognate receptors, NGL1 and NGL2, respectively, to specific
subdendritic segments of target neurons. However, the neural circuits and functional
roles of netrin-G isoform complexes remain unclear. Here, we use netrin-G-KO and
NGL-KO mice to reveal that netrin-G1/NGL1 and netrin-G2/NGL2 interactions specify
excitatory synapses in independent hippocampal pathways. In the hippocampal CA1
area, netrin-G1/NGL1 and netrin-G2/NGL2 were expressed in the temporoammonic and
Schaffer collateral pathways, respectively. The lack of presynaptic netrin-Gs
led to the dispersion of NGLs from postsynaptic membranes. In accord, netrin-G
mutant synapses displayed opposing phenotypes in long-term and short-term plasticity
through discrete biochemical pathways. The plasticity phenotypes in netrin-G-KOs
were phenocopied in NGL-KOs, with a corresponding loss of netrin-Gs from presynaptic
membranes. Our findings show that netrin-G/NGL interactions differentially control
synaptic plasticity in distinct circuits via retrograde signaling mechanisms and
explain how synaptic inputs are diversified to control neuronal activity.
