| Function |
Adapter protein that plays a role in integrin signaling via ILK and in activation of the GTPases CDC42 and RAC1 by guanine exchange factors, such as ARHGEF6. Is involved in the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and formation of lamellipodia. Plays a role in cell adhesion, cell spreading, establishment or maintenance of cell polarity, and cell migration. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11402068, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15005707, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15159419, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15284246, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18325335}.

| Subcellular Location |
Cell junction, focal adhesion. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell projection, lamellipodium. Cytoplasm, myofibril, sarcomere. Cytoplasm, myofibril, sarcomere, Z line. Note=Constituent of focal adhesions. Detected at the tips of the leading edge of cells. Colocalizes with F-actin at the tips of lamellipodia.
