|
| Function |
Adapter protein involved in asymmetrical cell division and cell polarization processes. Probably involved in formation of epithelial tight junctions. Association with PARD3 may prevent the interaction of PARD3 with F11R/JAM1, thereby preventing tight junction assembly. The PARD6-PARD3 complex links GTP-bound Rho small GTPases to atypical protein kinase C proteins.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm. Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}. Cell junction, tight junction {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in pancreas and in both adult and fetal kidney. Weakly expressed in placenta and lung. Not expressed in other tissues.
|
| Top Pathways |
Tight junction, Endocytosis, Hippo signaling pathway, Rap1 signaling pathway
