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.[3]

Moesin is localized to filopodia and other membranous protrusions that are important for cell–cell recognition and signaling and for cell movement.[3]

## Interactions

[edit | edit source]

Moesin has been shown to interact with:

* CD43[4][5]
* ICAM3[6][7]
* Neutrophil cytosolic factor 1,[8]
* Neutrophil cytosolic factor 4[8]
* VCAM-1[9]
* EZR[10][11][12]
