01

Overview

Katanin p60 ATPase-containing subunit A1 (KATNA1) is a microtubule-severing enzyme that comprises the catalytic component of the katanin complex and belongs to the AAA family of ATPases. It acts by binding and severing microtubules in an ATP-dependent manner, promoting rapid reorganization of the cytoskeleton during processes such as mitosis and neuronal migration[1][2][5]. KATNA1 is essential for the regulation of microtubule length, stability, and organization, and thus is involved in critical aspects of cell division, development, and neurobiology[1][3][5].
