KAL1 is a gene which codes for a protein that is expressed in the cerebellum and plays an important role in the patterning of cell collaterals to the olfactory cortex while also working as a chemo-attractant for fetal olfactory cells, with a length of 680 amino acids, and a weight of approximately 76 kDa. Studies are being conducted on diseases and disorders related to this gene including Kallmann syndrome, x-linked ichtyhosis, typhus, vesicoureteral reflux, delayed puberty, tooth agenesis, gonadotropin deficiency, charge syndrome, and atopic dermatitis. KAL1 has also been shown to have interactions with SDC2, FGFR1, FGF2, and FGFR2.
