Overview of Gene Research
ADD1, also known as adipocyte determination and differentiation-dependent factor 1, is a helix-loop-helix transcription factor. It is associated with adipocyte determination, differentiation, and fatty acid metabolism. ADD1/SREBP1c can activate the PGC1-alpha promoter in brown adipocytes, and ADD1 plays a role in insulin-induced gene expression linked to the MAP kinase pathway. It also activates PPARgamma through the production of endogenous ligand, thus being important in adipose differentiation and energy homeostasis [2,3,4,5,6].
Loss-of-function studies in Add1 knockout mice have shown that pathogenic ADD1 variants cause corpus callosum dysgenesis, ventriculomegaly, and/or intellectual disability in humans, indicating its crucial role in human neural development [1].
In conclusion, ADD1 is essential for adipocyte-related processes and neural development. The Add1 knockout mouse model has been instrumental in revealing its role in neural-related disease conditions, providing valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying these disorders.
