Description
Product Characteristics:
SEPT1 is a member of the septin family of GTPases. Members of this family are required for cytokinesis. SEPT1 is associated with the tau-based paired helical filament core, and may contribute to the formation of neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm
Synonyms: LARP, SEP1, DIFF6, PNUTL3, Septin-1, Peanut-like protein 3, Serologically defined breast cancer antigen NY-BR-24, SEPT1
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]
