The Dscam family of cell surface proteins mediates recognition events between neurons that play an essential role in the establishment of neural circuits in many organisms. Interneurons form synaptic connections with retinal ganglion cells in specific layers. Dscam and DscamL are expressed in different subsets of interneurons and ganglion cells. Interestingly, interneurons and ganglion cells that target to the same layer, express the same Dscam protein.
