Marker genes
ATRNL1, CALB1, CHST9, EPHB6, GAP43, GLT8D2, LHX6, NPPC, NRP2, OPCML, OPRM1, RALYL, SEMA6D, SMYD3, TIMP2, TMEM255A, UNC5D
Annotation genes
CALB1, GAP43, LHX6, NRP2, UNC5D
Annotation rationales
LHX6 interneuron program with axon growth GAP43 and guidance NRP2/UNC5D/SEMA6D supports long-range or cross-layer inhibitory projections; CALB1 buffers Ca²⁺ during rapid firing.
Functional implications
Distributes inhibition across layers/distant targets, synchronizing assemblies and shaping temporal windows for plasticity across cortical columns.
