Septin-8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SEPT8 gene.SEPT8 is a member of the highly conserved septin family. Septins are 40- to 60-kD GTPases that assemble as filamentous scaffolds. They are involved in the organization of submembranous structures in neuronal polarity and in vesicle trafficking (Blaser et al. 2003).[supplied by OMIM]
