Biological function summary
Ezrin functions as a membrane-microfilament linker and is essential for maintaining cell shape adhesion and motility. It is an integral component of many cellular structures including microvilli and ruffles. Ezrin’s activity often involves forming complexes with other proteins such as EBP50 and F-actin which are fundamental for its role in cellular morphogenesis. These interactions allow ezrin to regulate membrane surface structure and cell surface organization.
Pathways
Ezrin participates in various signaling pathways that are essential for cell migration and invasion. One key pathway is the Rho family of GTPases which regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics. Ezrin interacts with proteins like Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) that influence cell contraction and motility. Additionally ezrin is involved in the MAPK/ERK pathway which influences cell growth and survival by interacting with other signaling molecules.

General info
Function
Probably involved in connections of major cytoskeletal structures to the plasma membrane. In epithelial cells, required for the formation of microvilli and membrane ruffles on the apical pole. Along with PLEKHG6, required for normal macropinocytosis.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated by tyrosine-protein kinases. Phosphorylation by ROCK2 suppresses the head-to-tail association of the N-terminal and C-terminal halves resulting in an opened conformation which is capable of actin and membrane-binding (By similarity).. S-nitrosylation is induced by interferon-gamma and oxidatively-modified low-densitity lipoprotein (LDL(ox)) possibly implicating the iNOS-S100A8/9 transnitrosylase complex.
