== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: Plays a role in modulating chloride current across the plasma membrane in a calcium-dependent manner, and cell adhesion. Involved in basal cell adhesion and/or stratification of squamous epithelia. May act as a tumor suppressor in breast and colorectal cancer. Plays a key role for cell adhesion in the beginning stages of lung metastasis via the binding to ITGB4. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10554024, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11320086, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11445004, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15707651, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16158324}.
