Chordin-like 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CHRDL1 gene.[1]

Function

This gene encodes an antagonist of bone morphogenetic protein 4. The encoded protein may play a role in topographic retinotectal projection and in the regulation of retinal angiogenesis in response to hypoxia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.[1]

Clinical significance

Mutations in CHRDL1 are associated to Neuhäuser Syndrome , X-linked megalocornea and central corneal thickness .[2]
