...Kévin Leguay; Barbara Decelle; Yu Yan He; Anthony Pagniez; Mireille Hogue; Hiroyuki Kobayashi; Christian Le Gouill; Michel Bouvier; Sébastien Carréno ABSTRACT Ezrin, radixin and moesin compose the family of ERM proteins. They link actin filaments and microtubules to the plasma membrane to control...

...Andrea I. McClatchey ABSTRACT The cell cortex is a dynamic and heterogeneous structure that governs cell identity and behavior. The ERM proteins (ezrin, radixin and moesin) are major architects of the cell cortex, and they link plasma membrane phospholipids and proteins to the underlying cortical...

...Ken Hayashi; Shigenobu Yonemura; Takeshi Matsui; Sachiko Tsukita; Shoichiro Tsukita ABSTRACT Ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) proteins are thought to play an important role in organizing cortical actin-based cytoskeletons through cross-linkage of actin filaments with integral membrane proteins. Recent...

..., 77 and 72 kDa by overlay assay. The 80 kDa protein was identified as ezrin and the 77 and 72 kDa proteins as gastric forms of proteins structurally related to ezrin, such as radixin and moesin. In insect cells infected with a recombinant baculovirus, one-third of over-expressed ezrin accumulated...

...Naruki Sato; Noriko Funayama; Akira Nagafuchi; Sfugenobu Yonemura; Sachiko Tsukita; Shoichiro Tsukita ABSTRACT Radixin is a barbed end-capping actin-modulating protein which was previously reported to be concentrated at cell-to-cell adherens junctions (AJ) and cleavage furrows. Recently, cDNA...
