ATRNL1 Activators

Attractin-like 1 (ATRNL1) is a protein encoded by the ATRNL1 gene in humans. It is a transmembrane protein that is predominantly expressed in the brain, suggesting a role in neurological functions. ATRNL1 has been implicated in neurodevelopmental processes and is believed to contribute to the complex signaling mechanisms required for proper neuronal function and development.

Although the precise biological functions of ATRNL1 remain to be fully elucidated, it is thought to be involved in the regulation of neural cell adhesion and migration, which are critical for the formation and maintenance of neural networks. ATRNL1 may also participate in the modulation of synaptic activity, influencing synaptic plasticity and affecting learning and memory.Mutations or dysregulation of ATRNL1 expression have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, indicating its importance in maintaining neural health. Its role in the brain also suggests that ATRNL1 could be relevant in the context of neurodegenerative diseases, where neuronal communication and survival are compromised.
