atlastin GTPase tethering membranes through formation of trans-homooligomers and mediating homotypic fusion of endoplasmic reticulum membranes. Functions in endoplasmic reticulum tubular network biogenesis. May also regulate Golgi biogenesis. May regulate axonal development. Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. GB1/RHD3-type GTPase family. GB1 subfamily. Expressed predominantly in the adult and fetal central nervous system. Measurable expression in all tissues examined, although expression in adult brain is at least 50-fold higher than in other tissues. Detected predominantly in pyramidal neurons in the cerebral cortex and the hippocampus of the brain. Expressed in upper and lower motor neurons (at protein level). 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
