How does SYNGAP1, a 'synaptic' protein, function in pre-synaptic radial glia cells during neurogenesis?

This study reveals SYNGAP1 expression and function in radial glia before synaptogenesis, contradicting its classification as purely a synaptic protein. The molecular mechanisms underlying this non-synaptic role remain unexplained, which is critical for understanding ASD pathophysiology.
