PAR-3 (source code)
= PAR-3
{c}
A polarity scaffold associated with epithelial junction organization. Its fly counterpart is <Bazooka>.
By binding other polarity components, it helps organize where a signalling complex assembles. The shared relationship between <PAR-3> and <Bazooka> is useful for comparing systems, while exact localization and partner requirements depend on <species> and <cell> type. <Molecular Biology of the Cell, 4th edition by Bruce Alberts and others>[Chapters 3, 6 and 15, protein function, translation and cell signalling]{ref}
