Facts about Pleckstrin homology domain-containing family G member 6.
Does not trigger RAC1, or to a much lower extent than RHOA and RHOG. Part of a functional device, between PLEKHG6, MYH10 and RHOA, at the cleavage furrow to advance furrow ingression during cytokinesis.

Cell projection, microvillus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Cleavage furrow. During mitosis, localizes to the spindle pole, central spindle and cleavage furrow (PubMed:16721066). In epithelial cells, recruited to the apical membrane by EZR where it participates in macropinocytosis (PubMed:17881735).
