PARD6G Adapter protein involved in asymmetrical cell division and cell polarization processes. May play a role in the formation of epithelial tight junctions. The PARD6-PARD3 complex links GTP-bound Rho small GTPases to atypical protein kinase C proteins. Belongs to the PAR6 family. Widely expressed, with a higher expression in fetal and adult kidney. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
