Supplementary information

The ELKS protein also known as ERC1 or Rab6-interacting golgin is about 120-150 kDa in mass and functions as a scaffold protein. It interacts with other proteins at synaptic sites playing an important part in the regulation of neurotransmitter release. ELKS mainly locates to the nervous system but is found in other tissues as well. This protein contains coiled-coil domains facilitating binding to various partners including RIM piccolo and liprin.
Biological function summary

ELKS contributes to synaptic vesicle priming and readiness for neurotransmission. Within its role ELKS becomes part of the presynaptic active zone complex critical for proper synapse functioning. This protein scaffolds various components bringing them together for efficient synaptic signaling. By stabilizing synaptic structures ELKS ensures rapid responses to neural stimuli important for normal neuronal communication and brain function.

Pathways

ELKS proteins become integral to the synaptic vesicle cycle and neurotransmitter release pathways. ELKS interacts with proteins such as RIM and Munc13 which are essential for vesicle docking and priming. These interactions help coordinate neuronal signaling and transmitter release connecting ELKS with the broader network of synaptic activity regulators. Key pathways such as the cAMP signaling pathway depend on this fine-tuned coordination to properly translate extracellular signals into cellular responses.

ELKS shows connections with neurological conditions such as epilepsy and schizophrenia. Abnormalities in ELKS function might disrupt neural circuitry contributing to these disorders. Changes in ELKS or related proteins like piccolo or bassoon can alter synaptic balance leading to disease states. Researchers continue to investigate how modulation of ELKS and its associated proteins may offer therapeutic avenues for such conditions.

Target data

Regulatory subunit of the IKK complex. Probably recruits IkappaBalpha/NFKBIA to the complex. May be involved in the organization 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.
