Ezrin, Moesin and Radixin belong to a family of highly homologous Actinassociated proteins that are localized just beneath the plasma membrane. The proteins are believed to be involved in the mediation of interactions between cytoskeletal and membrane proteins. Ezrin serves as a major cytoplasmic substrate of various protein-tyrosine kinases, including the epidermal growth factor receptor. Ezrin has also been identified as a cAMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) anchoring protein and designated AKAP78. Moesin and Radixin share over 70% homology with Ezrin and are coexpressed within various cell types. Despite the high degree of homology, the three proteins exhibit a distinct receptor-specific patte of phosphorylation. Overexpression of Ezrin predicts the poor prognosis of gastric adenocarcinoma.
