Radixin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RDX gene. Radixin is a cytoskeletal protein that may be important in linking actin to the plasma membrane. It is highly similar in sequence to both ezrin and moesin. The radixin gene has been localized by fluorescence in situ hybridization to 11q23. A truncated version representing a pseudogene...

Type: Term Pronunciation: rah-diks′in Definitions: 1. A protein that belongs to the ERM (ezrin, radixin, and moesin) group of the band 4.1 superfamily of membrane proteins; appears to function in establishing links between the cell membrane and the underlying cytoskeleton. It also has been suggested to have some function in the formation of m...
