Moesin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MSN gene.[1][2]

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 membranous protrusions that are important for cell-cell recognition and signaling and for cell movement.[3]

Interactions

Moesin has been shown to interact with CD43,[4][5] Neutrophil cytosolic factor 1,[6] VCAM-1,[7] Neutrophil cytosolic factor 4,[6] ICAM3[8][9] and EZR.[10][11][12]
