Fig. 6.

Moesin function is conserved in solid structure phagocytosis. a Schematic of Moesin proteins in Mus musculus (Mm), Danio rerio (Dr), Drosophila melanogaster (Dm), and Caenorhabditis elegans (Ce), identified by NCBI Blast search. Functional domains and sequences of ITAM motif are shown. Two-letter abbreviations of all the listed species presented in this figure are shown on the left. b Moesin KD DC2.4 cells were rescued with the molecules indicated in a by transient overexpression. Vector transfection of the KD and WT cells were also shown. n = 50, N = 3. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 by one-way ANOVA with Scheffé post hoc
