ASPM also known by its alternative name "Abnormal Spindle Microtubule Assembly" is a protein that plays an important mechanical role in cell division. It is involved in mitotic spindle formation contributing to chromosome segregation during mitosis. The ASPM protein has a mass of approximately 410 kDa. This protein is expressed notably in neural tissues and regions of high cellular proliferation such as the brain and other rapidly dividing cell populations.
Biological function summary

ASPM supports proper neural development by maintaining the orientation of the mitotic spindle during neurogenesis. It does not function alone but as part of a protein complex involved in regulating mitotic spindle assembly. It associates with other mitotic spindle-associated proteins to ensure precise cell division. Through this it influences cell fate decisions and proliferation within developing tissues.

Pathways

ASPM plays a significant role in the cell cycle particularly during the mitosis phase. It is an essential part of the mitotic spindle checkpoint pathway which ensures accurate chromosome alignment and segregation. ASPM interacts with proteins like CDK1 (Cyclin-dependent kinase 1) to modulate these processes. This involvement secures ordered progression through cell division and prevents aneuploidy by ensuring spindle apparatuses function correctly.

ASPM dysfunction is closely linked to microcephaly where individuals have a significantly reduced brain size. Genetic mutations in the ASPM gene lead to some forms of primary microcephaly. The protein's influence on neurogenesis ties closely to this condition. Additionally ASPM has associations with cancer particularly in tumors where abnormal cell proliferation occurs. Alterations in ASPM expression can coincide with other cancer-related proteins such as TP53 revealing its potential role as a biomarker in tumor development and growth.

Target data

Involved in mitotic spindle regulation and coordination of mitotic processes. The function in regulating microtubule dynamics at spindle poles including spindle orientation, astral microtubule density and poleward microtubule flux seems to depend on the association with the katanin complex formed by KATNA1 and KATNB1. Enhances the microtubule lattice severing activity of KATNA1 by recruiting the katanin complex to microtubules. Can block microtubule minus-end growth and reversely this function can be enhanced by the katanin complex (PubMed : 28436967). May have a preferential role in regulating neurogenesis.
