Moesin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MSN gene. Moesin (for membrane-organizing extension spike protein) is a member of the ERM protein family which includes ezrin and radixin. ERM proteins appear to function as cross-linkers between plasma membranes and actin-based cytoskeletons. Moesin is localized to filopodia and other membranou...

Type: Term Definitions: 1. A protein that belongs to the ERM (ezrin, radixin, and moesin) group of the band 4.1 superfamily of proteins that assist in the establishment of submembrane cytoskeletal scaffolds to maintain membrane architecture and functional capacity. Moesin is required for the accurate organization of the cytoskeletal component of th...
