Atlastins (ATLs) are a class of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) GTPases. Invertebrates have a single ATL, while vertebrates possess three ATL proteins (ATL1-3) that are differentially expressed.[1] ATL1 is the predominant paralog of the central nervous system, whereas ATL2 and ATL3 are mainly expressed in tissues outside of the CNS.[1] Loss of all ATLs in mammalian cells dramatically impacts ER structure, including a reduction in tubule three-way junctions.[2]
