caption_attribution_description: English: A fluoroscopy of human cells, from the CACO-2 cell line of colorectal cancer, showing the presence of the ERICH2 antibody, as well as highlighted microtubules and DNA. This picture shows the location of the ERICH2 protein, mainly in the nucleoli fibrillar center and vesicles.
context_page_description: Glutamate Rich Protein 2 is a protein in humans encoded by the gene ERICH2. This protein is expressed heavily in male tissues specifically in the testes, and proteins are specifically found in the nucleoli fibrillar center and the vesicles of these testicular cells. The protein has multiple protein interactions which indicate that it may play a role in histone modification and proper histone functioning.
context_section_description: ERICH2 is not ubiquitously expressed. It however, has been shown to be expressed narrowly in the choroid plexus of a developing fetus and in the testes of adults. Lung and female tissue expression were also present but expression was greatly decreased. Proteins are specifically located in the nucleoli fibrillar center and the vesicles within cells.
