SEPT1

Septin-1 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the SEPT1 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
This gene is a member of the is_associated_with::septin family of GTPases. Members of this family are required for is_associated_with::cytokinesis. This gene encodes a protein associated with the tau-based paired helical filament core, and may contribute to the formation of neurofibrillary tangles in is_associated_with::Alzheimer's disease.
