Summary: Enables GTPase activity and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in growth of a germarium-derived egg chamber; imaginal disc development; and regulation of cell cycle. Part of septin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including Malpighian tubule primordium; ganglia; gut section; head epidermis primordium; and larval muscle cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease. Orthologous to several human genes including SEPTIN11 (septin 11) and SEPTIN8 (septin 8).
