Definition
English
:
An AAA ATPase that binds and severs
MICROTUBULES
. It specifically recognizes and cuts polyglutamylated
microtubules
with short
polyglutamate
tails to promote reorganization of cellular
microtubule
arrays and the release of
microtubules
from the
CENTROSOME
following nucleation. It is critical for the biogenesis and
maintenance
of complex
microtubule
arrays in AXONS;
SPINDLE APPARATUS
; and CILIA.
Mutations
in the
spastin
gene (SPAST) are associated with type 4 of HEREDITARY SPASTIC
PARAPLEGIA.
