CREB-regulated transcription coactivator 1 (CRTC1), previously referred to as TORC1 (Transducer Of Regulated CREB activity 1), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CRTC1 gene.^[1][2][3][4] It is expressed in a limited number of tissues that include fetal brain and liver and adult heart, skeletal muscles, liver and salivary glands^[5] and various regions of the adult central nervous system.^[6]

Clinical significance

Production of CRTC1 is blocked in Alzheimer's disease.^[7] TORC1 might be the target protein in ketamin induced anti-depressent effect via NMDA-antagonisation.
