MAP1A and MAP1B are microtubule-associated proteins which
mediate the physical interactions between microtubules and
components of the cytoskeleton. MAP1A and MAP1B each consist of a
heavy chain subunit and multiple light chain subunits. The protein
encoded by this gene is one of the light chain subunits and can
associate with either MAP1A or MAP1B. Two transcript variants
encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
