It weighs approximately 68 kDa and is present mainly in neural tissue but can also be found in other tissues. The protein's localization includes the cytoplasm and is associated with centrosomes and subcellular regions with dense microtubule networks.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nSpastin participates in regulating microtubule dynamics. It plays a critical role in axonal growth and maintenance by modulating microtubule lengths and branching. Spastin does not function alone; it forms part of the AAA protein family functioning in significant processes like neurogenesis and neural maintenance. Its activity affects neural cell structure and transport by influencing cytoskeletal rearrangement.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nAny disturbances in Spastin function can impact the microtubule dynamics pathway and the axonal transport pathway. Spastin interacts closely with proteins such as Tubulin and Katanin which are also involved in microtubule severing and organization. Proper Spastin function is necessary to maintain intracellular transport and signal transduction critical for neural cell health and function.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlterations in Spastin activity lead to neurodegenerative conditions like Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP). This disorder often relates to mutations in the SPG4 gene which encodes Spastin affecting motor neuron functions. In HSP disrupted Spastin function correlates with deficiencies in proteins such as Tubulin exacerbating neuroaxonal deficits and influencing disease progression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855373324457,"sku":"ab77144","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab77144","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
