Function

This gene is a member of the PAR6 family and encodes a protein with a PSD95/Discs-large/ZO1 (PDZ) domain, an OPR domain and a semi-Cdc42/Rac interactive binding (CRIB) domain. This cytoplasmic protein is involved in asymmetrical cell division and cell polarization processes as a member of a multi-protein complex.^[6]

Interactions

PARD6B has been shown to interact with:

• CDC42,^[5][7][8]
• Protein kinase Mζ,^[5]
• RAC1,^[5] and
• RHOQ.^[7][8]
