Septin-9 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SEPT9 gene.[1][2][3]

Contents

Interactions

SEPT9 has been shown to interact with SEPT2[4] and SEPT7.[4]

Biology

Along with AHNAK, eIF4E and S100A11, SEPT9 has been shown to be essential for pseudopod protrusion, tumor cell migration and invasion.[5]

Clinical Significance

The v2 region of the SEPT9 promoter has been shown to be methylated in colorectal cancer tissue compared with normal colonic mucosa.[6] Using highly sensitive real time PCR assays, methylated SEPT9 was detected in the blood of colorectal cancer patients.[7][8]
