    basic FUNCTION
  • having regulatory function for IKK and NFKB activation
  • required for protein transport from the ER to the golgi complex
  • positively regulates exocytotic release in RBL-2H3 by acting on the plasma membrane upon stimulation
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • major component of the presynaptic active zones of neurons in the central nervous system, and component of neuromuscular junction synapses in the peripheral nervous system
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • PHLDB2 and ERC1 can form a PIP3-regulated cortical platform to which CLASPs attach distal microtubule ends
  • RAB6A binding protein (directs targeting of secretory vesicles to plasma-membrane sites enriched in the cortical protein ERC1)
  • ATM activates the IKK kinase TAK1 in a manner dependent on IKBKG and ERS1 (a protein rich in glutamate, leucine, lysine, and serine)
  • RAB8A8A and ERC1 can be linked by MICAL3
  • SDCCAG8 interacts with proteins of the centriolar satellites (OFD1, CEP131), of the endosomal sorting complex (RABEP2, ERC1), and with non-muscle myosin motor proteins (MYH9, MYH10, MYH14) at the centrosome
  • Oligomerized PPFIA2 coiled coils alter the phase separation of ERC1
  • cell & other
    REGULATION
    Other ATM- and IKBKG-dependent ubiquitination of ERC1 leads to the ubiquitin-dependent assembly of TAK1/TAB2/3 and IKBKG/IKK complexes, resulting in IKK and NFKB activation following genotoxic stimuli
