| Research Abstract |
ATF5 is a stress-response transcription factor. The physiological role of ATF5 was investigated by the generation of ATF5-deficient mice. The ATF5-deficient mice showed abnormal brain morphology and 70% of these mice died within three days of birth. ATF5-knockdown caused an inhibition of neurite outgrowth in migrating neurons of the cerebral cortex. Furthermore, we found that ATF5(-/-) male mice exhibited reduced aggressiveness toward intruders.
