Protein
WD repeat-containing and planar cell polarity effector protein fritz homolog
Function
Probable effector of the planar cell polarity signaling pathway which regulates the septin cytoskeleton in both ciliogenesis and collective cell movements including covergent extension during gastrulation. Controls cell shape but not polarization during convergent extension (PubMed:20671153). Proposed to function as core component of the CPLANE (ciliogenesis and planar polarity effectors) complex involved in the recruitment of peripheral IFT-A proteins to basal bodies.
Similarity
Belongs to the WD repeat fritz family.
