== Function Summary ==
  * **<color #00a2e8>Entrez Summary</color>**:  This gene encodes a FERM domain-containing protein that regulates epithelial cell polarity. It connects ADP ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) with the Par protein complex, which regulates the remodeling of adherens junctions and linear actin cable formation during epithelial cell polarization. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with Alzheimer's disease, and also with nicotine dependence. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]. 
  * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**:  Scaffolding protein that regulates epithelial cell polarity by connecting ARF6 activation with the PAR3 complex (By similarity). Plays a redundant role with FRMD4B in epithelial polarization (By similarity). May regulate MAPT secretion by activating ARF6-signaling (PubMed:27044754). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8BIE6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27044754}.
