Gene information for KATNB1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10300
Official gene symbolKATNB1
Full namekatanin p80 (WD repeat containing) subunit B 1
Aliases,KAT,
Gene summaryMicrotubules, polymers of alpha and beta tubulin subunits, form the mitotic spindle of a dividing cell and help to organize membranous organelles during interphase. Katanin is a heterodimer that consists of a 60 kDa ATPase (p60 subunit A 1) and an 80 kDa accessory protein (p80 subunit B 1). The p60 subunit acts to sever and disassemble microtubules, while the p80 subunit targets the enzyme to the centrosome. Katanin is a member of the AAA family of ATPases. [provided by RefSeq]
