    Summary
    Enables several functions, including GTP binding activity; cytoskeletal protein binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including imaginal disc-derived wing morphogenesis; mitotic cytokinesis; and positive regulation of imaginal disc growth. Located in cleavage furrow; contractile ring; and intercellular bridge. Part of septin complex. Is expressed in adult head; central nervous system; follicle cell; furrow canal; and photoreceptor neurons. Orthologous to human SEPTIN7 (septin 7).
