CHL1
Neural cell adhesion molecule L1-like protein also known as close homolog of L1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CHL1 gene.
CHL1 is a cell adhesion molecule closely related to the L1. In melanocytic cells CHL1 gene expression may be regulated by MITF, and can act as a helicase protein during the interphase stage of mitosis.
The protein, however, has dynamic localisation, meaning that it has not only multiple roles in the cell, but also various locations.
