PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • a N terminal FERM (EPB41, ezrin, radixin, moesin) domain cysteine-rich, basic charged globular module with three subdomains followed by an alpha helical domain,
  • a polyproline region and
  • a C terminal autoinhibitory domain binding with inositol triphosphate
  • HOMOLOGY
    Homologene

    text highly, in the undercoat of the adherens junction
    basic FUNCTION
  • actin capping protein, involved in regulation of linkage of the cytoskeleton (actin filament) to the plasma membrane (adhesion protein)
  • responding and participating in reorganization of membrane-cytoplasmic interactions
  • ezrin, radixin and moesin are adaptor proteins that link plasma membrane receptors to the actin cytoskeleton
  • potential role for RDX in microglial activation after stroke
  • plays likely an important role in regulating P-glycoprotein (P-gp) localization and P-gp functional activity at the intestinal membrane
  • supportive role of EZR, RDX, MSN in cortical activities during cytokinesis
  • ERM proteins, EZR, radixin and moesin, assist in the formation and maintenance of specialized plasma membrane structures and membrane vesicle structures
  • PROM1-Radixin axis controls hepatic gluconeogenesis by regulating PKA activity
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell organization/biogenesis
    cell communication
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    text
  • downstream effector of trafficking PRKC-integrin complex, involved in the control of cell motility
  • prominent constituent of stereocilia, participating in anchoring the pointed end of actin filaments to the membrane

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with CLIC5
  • regulates cell migration and cell-cell adhesion through RAC1 (
  • P2RX7 stimulation triggers the phosphorylation of EZR/RDX/MSN, which translocate to the plasma membrane where they associate with P2RX7
  • RDX, EZR, MSN exert a redundant control on PDGFA-induced vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) migration by regulating focal adhesion turn-over and cell adhesion to substrate
  • GABRA5 concentrate extrasynaptically through RDX-mediated anchorage at the actin cytoskeleton
  • RHOA/ROCK1 signalling regulates an activity-dependent RDX phosphorylation switch that uncouples GABRA5 from its extrasynaptic anchor, thereby enriching synaptic receptor numbers
  • inhibition of cell adhesion by phosphorylated EZR/RDX/MSN
  • RDX is a PRG2 interaction partner and radixin accumulation in growth cones and its LPA-dependent phosphorylation depend on its binding to specific regions within the C-terminal region of PRG2
