+== Function ==
+[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MERH_DROME MERH_DROME] Regulator of the Hippo/SWH (Sav/Wts/Hpo) signaling pathway, a signaling pathway that plays a pivotal role in organ size control and tumor suppression by restricting proliferation and promoting apoptosis. The core of this pathway is composed of a kinase cascade wherein Hippo (Hpo), in complex with its regulatory protein Salvador (Sav), phosphorylates and activates Warts (Wts) in complex with its regulatory protein Mats, which in turn phosphorylates and inactivates the Yorkie (Yki) oncoprotein. Mer acts synergistically along with Ex and Kibra to regulate the Hippo signaling pathway.<ref>PMID:20159598</ref> <ref>PMID:8666669</ref>

+== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
+NF2/Merlin is an upstream regulator of hippo pathway, and it has two states: an auto-inhibited "closed" state and an active "open" form. Previous studies showed that Drosophila Merlin adopts a more closed conformation. However, the molecular mechanism of conformational regulation remains poorly understood. Here, we first confirmed the strong interaction between FERM and the C-terminal domain (CTD) of Merlin, and then determined the crystal structure of the FERM/CTD complex, which reveals the structural basis of Merlin adopting a more closed conformation compared to its human cognate NF2. Interestingly, we found that the conserved lipid-binding site of Merlin might be masked by a linker. Confocal analyses confirmed that all putative lipid-binding site are very important for the membranal location of Merlin. More, we found that the phosphomimic Thr616Asp mutation weakens the interaction between FERM and CTD of Merlin. Collectively, the crystal structure of the FERM/CTD complex not only provides a mechanistic explanation of functionally dormant conformation of Merlin may also serve as a foundation for revealing the mechanism of conformational regulation of Merlin.
