Katanin catalytic subunit A1 (KATNA1) is the 60 kDa catalytic subunit of katanin, which is a microtubule-severing enzyme. It belongs to the AAA (ATPases associated with various cellular activities) protein family. KATNA1 possesses an amino-terminal domain and an AAA domain. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 6q25.1.
Synonyms: Anti-Katanin p60 (ATPase-containing) subunit A 1
Storage: -20C
Application: All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

Biochem Physiol Actions: Katanin catalytic subunit A1 (KATNA1) has a role in the organization of the microtubule cytoskeleton. It is also involved in meiosis to mitosis switching, mitosis, neuronal development and deflagellation.
