It plays a role in the organization of microtubules during cell division. MZT2B has a molecular mass of approximately 20 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues with prominent expression in proliferative tissues such as those in the reproductive system and certain areas of the brain.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe MZT2B protein contributes to the proper formation and function of the mitotic spindle. It is an integral part of the gamma-tubulin ring complex which is critical for microtubule nucleation at centrosomes. This complex ensures the stability and anchoring of microtubules facilitating accurate and equal chromosome segregation during mitosis. Proper spindle assembly is essential for optimal cell division and proliferation.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe MZT2B protein plays a prominent role in the mitotic spindle assembly pathway and the cell cycle checkpoint pathway. It associates with proteins like gamma-tubulin and other components of the spindle assembly checkpoint machinery ensuring that all chromosomes are precisely aligned and attached to spindle fibers before proceeding to the next phase of cell division. The interplay between MZT2B and these pathways ensures successful mitosis and genomic stability.\u003cbr\u003e\nDeregulation of MZT2B has been linked to various types of cancer including breast and ovarian cancer. Abnormalities in the function or expression of MZT2B can lead to chromosomal instability which is a hallmark of cancerous transformations. Changes in expression levels of MZT2B may also affect interactions with proteins like p53 an important tumor suppressor influencing cancer progression and treatment responses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845206069417,"sku":"ab266243","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab266243","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
