Marker genes
APP, ATP1B1, BASP1, CALM1, CALM2, CHGA, CHN1, CLU, EIF4G2, HSP90AA1, ITM2B, OLFM1, PTMA, REEP5, SNAP25, TSC22D1, VAMP2, YPEL3, YWHAH
Annotation genes
CALM1, CALM2, OLFM1, SNAP25, VAMP2
Annotation rationales
Classic vesicle fusion machinery SNAP25/VAMP2 with CALM1/CALM2 Ca²⁺ sensing supports rapid release; OLFM1/APP stabilize synaptic adhesion and spine structure. Translational/chaperone support (EIF4G2/HSP90AA1) sustains throughput.
Functional implications
Delivers reliable excitatory drive with tight temporal precision, enabling short-term plasticity and stable ensemble coding in association cortex.
