Protein: ERC protein 2 (CAZ-associated structural protein 1) (CAST1) (Cast) (Cytomatrix protein p110) (Q8K3M6)
Organism: Rattus norvegicus (Rat)
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.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Synapse. Presynaptic active zone {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12163476}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=Localized to the active zone of presynaptic density. Colocalizes with RIMS1 and BSN in early stages of synapse formation.
InterPro domains:
