NEGR1


Description

The NEGR1 (neuronal growth regulator 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.

NEGR1, or Neuronal growth regulator 1, is a protein encoded by the NEGR1 gene in humans. Variations in the NEGR1 gene have been linked to obesity and major depression.

NEGR1 may play a role in cell adhesion and act as a trans-neural growth-promoting factor, potentially aiding in regenerative axon sprouting within the mammalian brain.

NEGR1 is also known as DMML2433, IGLON4, KILON, Ntra.
