    Summary
    This gene is a member of the septin family of nucleotide binding proteins, originally described in yeast as cell division cycle regulatory proteins. Septins are highly conserved in yeast, Drosophila, and mouse, and appear to regulate cytoskeletal organization. Disruption of septin function disturbs cytokinesis and results in large multinucleate or polyploid cells. This gene is highly expressed in brain and heart. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. One of the isoforms (known as ARTS) is distinct; it is localized to the mitochondria, and has a role in apoptosis and cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) differs in the 5' UTR and coding region and initiates translation at an alternate start codon, compared to variant 7. This transcript contains an early translation termination site, rendering this transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). However, the encoded protein (isoform 2, also known as ARTS, SEPT4_i2), with distinct N- and C-termini compared to isoform 5, has been shown to be expressed in vivo, and characterized as a mitochondrial pro-apoptotic, tumor suppressor protein having a role in cancer (PMIDs: 11146656, 15254396).
