Facts about Protein flightless-1 homolog.
Involved in early embryonic development (By similarity). May play a role in regulation of cytoskeletal rearrangements involved in cytokinesis and cell migration, by inhibiting Rac1-dependent paxillin phosphorylation.

Strongest expression in skeletal muscle with high expression also in the heart and lung.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cell junction, focal adhesion. Colocalizes to actin-rich structures in blastocysts and, together with HRAS, RHOA and CDC42, in migrating fibroblasts. Localizes to centrosomes (By similarity).
