Fig. 5. Function enrichment and network analysis indicate strong regulation of the glutamatergic synapse.

STRING protein-protein interaction network⁶⁷ (https://string-db.org) was performed for ADNP, DLG4, and SLC17A7 in the human database (blue lines) (a). Enriched biological processes are marked on the network according to the color legend (b). Edges represent protein-protein associations, meant to be specific and meaningful with associated proteins jointly contributing to a shared function. This does not necessarily mean that the proteins are physically binding each other (c)
