Summary

This gene encodes a protein which is a member of the stathmin protein family. Members of this protein family form a complex with tubulins at a ratio of 2 tubulins for each stathmin protein. Microtubules require the ordered assembly of alpha- and beta-tubulins, and formation of a complex with stathmin disrupts microtubule formation and function. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 22. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

Forensic Context

A study in rats demonstrated that the STMN3 was identified as a differentially expressed RNA marker in the hypothalamus during hypothermia, with its expression being significantly more abundant in control hypothalami (62 tags) compared to hypothermic hypothalami (20 tags) [Takamiya et al. DOI:10.1016/J.Jflm.2012.04.017].
