ID:ERC2_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=ERC protein 2; FUNCTION: Thought to be involved in the organization of the cytomatrix at the nerve terminals active zone (CAZ) which regulates neurotransmitter release. Seems to act together with BSN. May recruit liprin-alpha proteins to the CAZ. SUBUNIT: Interacts with BSN, ERC1, PPFIA1, PPFIA2, PPFIA3 and PPFIA4. Interacts through its C-terminus with the PDZ domain of RIMS1. Part of a complex consisting of ERC2, RIMS1 and UNC13A. INTERACTION: P10242:MYB; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-2684336, EBI-298355; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Cell junction, synapse. Cell junction, synapse, synaptosome. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=In neurons, localized to synapses, and colocalizes with PCLO. Localized to the active zone of presynaptic density (By similarity). SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAA20832.2; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.
Pfam Domains: PF10174 - RIM-binding protein of the cytomatrix active zone
SCOP Domains: 90257 - Myosin rod fragments 57997 - Tropomyosin

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
