Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity and metal ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of gene expression. Expressed in coelomocyte; gonad; intestine; neurons; and ventral nerve cord. Is an ortholog of human ZFP36L1 (ZFP36 ring finger protein like 1) and ZFP36L2 (ZFP36 ring finger protein like 2).
Moesin (Moe) encodes an Ezrin, Radixin, Moesin (ERM) protein involved in cortical cytoskeleton stability. It regulates the products of crb and Rho1. The product of Moe contributes to apical-basal polarity, mitotic spindle organisation and epithelial integrity.
CG10939 encodes a protein that functions as a scaffold linking the plasma membrane and cytoskeletal linker proteins encoded by Mer and Moe. Via interaction with the products of Slik and flw, it regulates the activity of the products of Mer and Moe in epithelial cell adhesion.
conundrum (conu) encodes a Rho GTPase activating protein (RhoGAP) that negatively regulates Rho1 activity at the cell cortex via interaction with the product of Moe.
