    Summary
    This gene encodes a protein that is similar to some members of the ERM (ezrin, radixin, moesin) family of proteins that link cytoskeletal components with proteins in the cell membrane. The encoded protein is involved in regulation of contact-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation and functions in cell-cell adhesion and transmembrane signaling. The encoded protein has been shown to interact with cell-surface proteins, proteins involved in cytoskeletal dynamics, and proteins involved in regulating ion transport. Disruption of this protein's function has been implicated in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with neurofibromatosis type II which is characterized by nervous system and skin tumors and ocular abnormalities. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (5) lacks an alternate in-frame exon in the 5' coding region and includes an alternate exon in the 3' coding region, compared to variant 1. The resulting protein (isoform 5, also referred to as isoform delE2) is shorter and has a distinct C-terminus, compared to isoform 1.

    1. NM_181826.1: Suppressed sequence

      Description
      NM_181826.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because it is a nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) candidate.
    2. NM_181827.1: Suppressed sequence

      Description
      NM_181827.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because it is a nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) candidate.
    3. NM_181834.1: Suppressed sequence

      Description
      NM_181834.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because it is a nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) candidate.
    4. NM_181835.1: Suppressed sequence

      Description
      NM_181835.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because currently there is insufficient support for the transcript and the protein.
