Summary: Enables cell adhesion molecule binding activity. Involved in several processes, including R8 cell development; embryonic development via the syncytial blastoderm; and open tracheal system development. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; basolateral plasma membrane; and nephrocyte diaphragm. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; epithelium; gut section; mesoderm; and nephrocyte. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in disease of metabolism and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis 4. Orthologous to several human genes including TJP2 (tight junction protein 2).

Polychaetoid/ZO-1 strengthens cell junctions under tension while localizing differently than core adherens junction proteins.

Title: The ZO-1 protein Polychaetoid as an upstream regulator of the Hippo pathway in Drosophila.
Here, we show that a specific isoform of Polychaetoid/ZO-1, Pyd-P, is essential for Drosophila SDs, since, in pyd mutants devoid of Pyd-P, SDs do not form and the SD component Dumbfounded accumulates at ectopic septate-like junctions between abnormally aggregated nephrocytes
Title: A specific isoform of Pyd/ZO-1 mediates junctional remodeling and formation of slit diaphragms.
Canoe and Polychaetoid stabilize Bazooka/Par3 at cell-cell junctions, helping maintain balanced apical contractility and tissue integrity.
Title: The Drosophila Afadin and ZO-1 homologues Canoe and Polychaetoid act in parallel to maintain epithelial integrity when challenged by adherens junction remodeling.

Most embryos lacking Pyd die with striking defects in morphogenesis of embryonic epithelia including the epidermis, segmental grooves, and tracheal system
Title: The single Drosophila ZO-1 protein Polychaetoid regulates embryonic morphogenesis in coordination with Canoe/afadin and Enabled.
A core antagonistic interaction between Pyd and the WW domain E3 ubiquitin ligase Su(dx), was identified.
