UniProtKB description:  Negative regulator of the Hippo signaling pathway, also known as the Salvador-Warts-Hippo (SWH) pathway. Enhances phosphorylation of LATS1 and YAP1 and negatively regulates cell proliferation and organ growth due to a suppression of the transcriptional activity of YAP1, the major effector of the Hippo pathway. Along with NF2 can synergistically induce the phosphorylation of LATS1 and LATS2 and function in the regulation of Hippo signaling pathway. Acts as a transcriptional coactivator of ESR1 which plays an essential role in DYNLL1-mediated ESR1 transactivation. Modulates directional migration of podocytes. May be associated with memory performance (By similarity). Regulates collagen-stimulated activation of the ERK/MAPK cascade (PubMed:18190796). Plays an important role in regulating AMPA-selective glutamate receptors (AMPARs) trafficking (PubMed:31730661, PubMed:21943600).
