MZT1 has a molecular mass of approximately 10 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues particularly in rapidly dividing cells due to its role in mitosis. MZT1 localizes mainly to the centrosomes which are critical for spindle formation and function during mitosis.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe small MZT1 protein integrates into the core structure of the mitotic apparatus by being part of the γ-tubulin ring complex (γ-TuRC). This complex is important for microtubule nucleation at the centrosome. By ensuring proper organization of the microtubules MZT1 supports accurate chromosomal segregation and cell division. These functions make MZT1 significant in maintaining genomic stability during cell replication.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nEnsuring precise spindle organization and function involves MZT1 in the regulation of the cell cycle and mitotic checkpoint pathways. It connects with proteins such as γ-tubulin and other spindle-associated proteins to facilitate microtubule dynamics. These interactions place MZT1 firmly within pathways that oversee correct mitotic progression and check for errors during cell division preventing chromosomal instability.\u003cbr\u003e\nImproper function or expression of MZT1 has connections with cancer and some chromosomal instability syndromes. Its association with key mitotic processes means that disruptions can lead to unregulated cell proliferation a hallmark of cancer. Altered interactions between MZT1 and the γ-tubulin complex can contribute to tumorigenesis highlighting its potential as a target for therapeutic approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845200597161,"sku":"ab265808","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab265808","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
