ERC1 (ELKS/Rab6-interacting/CAST family member 1) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a fusion partner, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
Regulatory subunit of the IKK complex. Probably recruits IkappaBalpha/NFKBIA to the complex. May be involved in the organisation of the cytomatrix at the nerve terminals active zone (CAZ) which regulates neurotransmitter release.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.58 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.38, animal model 0.42, genetic association 0.08, somatic mutation 0.92).
In plain words · ERC1 (ELKS/Rab6-interacting/CAST family member 1) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a fusion partner, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.

Regulatory subunit of the IKK complex. Probably recruits IkappaBalpha/NFKBIA to the complex. May be involved in the organisation of the cytomatrix at the nerve terminals active zone (CAZ) which regulates neurotransmitter release. May be involved in vesicle trafficking at the CAZ. May be involved in Rab-6 regulated endosomes to Golgi transport. Location: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome; Cytoplasm; Membrane; Golgi apparatus membrane (UniProt). Locus 12p13.33 (HGNC).
