Description
Product Characteristics: SEPT1 Antibody: SEPT1 (also known as Septin 1), is a member of the septin family of GTPases. Members of this family are required for cytokinesis and the maintenance of cellular morphology. SEPT1 was initially identified through yeast two-hybrid screening as an interaction partner for the serine/threonine kinase Aurora-B. During mitosis, SEPT1 localizes to the spindle pole, suggesting that it may play a role in cytokinesis and chromosome congression.
Target Information: This gene is a member of the septin family of GTPases. Members of this family are required for cytokinesis and the maintenance of cellular morphology. This gene encodes a protein that can form homo- and heterooligomeric filaments, and may contribute to the formation of neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found but the full-length nature of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
