Abstract excerpt
Phosphorylation of the membrane-cytoskeleton linker protein ezrin has been functionally linked to acid secretion and vesicle recruitment to the apical secretory membrane in gastric parietal cells. Phosphorylation of the conserved T567 residue of ezrin has been shown to alter the N/C oligomerization of ezrin and promote the formation of actin-rich surface projections in other cells. To test the importance of T567...
