General annotation (Comments)

Function

ATP-dependent microtubule severing protein. Stimulates microtubule minus-end depolymerization and poleward microtubule flux in the mitotic spindle. Regulates microtubule stability in the neuromuscular junction synapse By similarity.

Catalytic activity

ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate.

Subunit structure

Homohexamer. The homohexamer is stabilized by ATP-binding. The homohexamer may adopt a ring conformation through which microtubules pass prior to being severed. Interacts with microtubules By similarity.

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass membrane protein Potential. Cytoplasmcytoskeletoncentrosome By similarity. Cytoplasmcytoskeleton By similarity. Chromosome By similarity. Note: Colocalizes with cellular microtubule arrays. Localizes to chromosomes from prometaphase/metaphase to anaphase, and this requires microtubules. Localizes to discrete punctate cytoplasmic foci which may correspond to secretory vesicles By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the AAA ATPase family. Spastin subfamily.

Contains 1 MIT domain.
