== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/KTNA1_CAEEL KTNA1_CAEEL] Catalytic subunit of a complex which severs microtubules in an ATP-dependent manner. Microtubule severing may promote rapid reorganization of cellular microtubule arrays. Required specifically for meiotic spindle formation in the female germline; the presence of this protein is inimical to the formation of mitotic spindles (PubMed:8027178, PubMed:10809666, PubMed:12885567). In body wall muscles, regulates organization of myosin thick filaments (PubMed:22621901).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_03023]<ref>PMID:10809666</ref> <ref>PMID:12885567</ref> <ref>PMID:22621901</ref> <ref>PMID:8027178</ref>
