Scaffolding protein that facilitates the localization of proteins to the cell membrane (PubMed:17235357). Required for the correct formation of tight junctions and epithelial apico-basal polarity (PubMed:15738264). Positively regulates epithelial cell microtubule elongation and cell migration, possibly via facilitating localization of PRKCI/aPKC and PAR3D/PAR3 at the leading edge of migrating cells (PubMed:17235357). Plays a role in the correct reorientation of the microtubule-organizing center during epithelial migration (PubMed:17235357). May regulate the surface expression and/or function of ASIC3 in sensory neurons (By similarity). May recruit ARHGEF18 to apical cell-cell boundaries (By similarity). {By
