STMN1 is a ubiquitous cytosolic phosphoprotein proposed to function as an intracellular relay integrating regulatory signals of the cellular environment. The encoded protein is involved in the regulation of the microtubule filament system by destabilizing microtubules. It prevents assembly and promotes disassembly of microtubules. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified.Synonyms: LAP18, Leukemia-associated phosphoprotein p18, Metablastin, OP18, Oncoprotein 18, Op18, Phosphoprotein p19, Prosolin, Protein Pr22, pp17, pp19
