Function |
Keratin-binding protein required for epithelial cell polarization. Involved in apical junction complex (AJC) assembly via its interaction with PARD3. Required for ciliogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18838552, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23348840}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Cell junction. Note=Localizes specifically to the distal appendage region of the centriole, which anchors the mother centriole to the plasma membrane. Localizes to the apical junction complex (AJC) in epithelial cells.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Present in various epithelial cells (at protein level).
