Biochem Physiol Actions: Septins (SEPTs) are important proteins which regulate microtubule and actin dynamics. SEPT7 is associated with actin assembly and cell morphology. SEPT7 forms a complex with SEPT2 and SEPT6. In addition, it binds to CENP-E (centromere protein E). The association is needed for the localization of CENP-E to the kinetochore and for correct chromosomal alignment. In endothelial cells, it participates in the internalization of Candida albicans.
