What is Identification and characterization of novel ERC‐55 interacting proteins: Evidence for the existence of several ERC‐55 splicing variants; including the cytosolic ERC‐55‐C about?

## Abstract ERC‐55, encoded from __RCN2__, is localized in the ER and belongs to the CREC protein family. ERC‐55 is involved in various diseases and abnormal cell behavior, however, the function is not well defined and it has controversially been reported to interact with a cytosolic protein, the vitamin D receptor. We have used a number of proteomic techniques to further our functional understanding of ERC‐55. By affinity purification, we observed interaction with a large variety of proteins, including those secreted and localized outside of the secretory pathway, in the cytosol and also in various organelles. We confirm the existence of several ERC‐55 splicing variants including ERC‐55‐C localized in the cytosol in association with the cytoskeleton. Localization was verified by immunoelectron microscopy and sub‐cellular fractionation. Interaction of lactoferrin, S100P, calcyclin (S100A6), peroxiredoxin‐6, kininogen and lysozyme with ERC‐55 was further studied __in vitro__ by SPR experiments. Interaction of S100P requires [Ca^2+^] of ∼10^−7^ M or greater, while calcyclin interaction requires [Ca^2+^] of >10^−5^ M. Interaction with peroxiredoxin‐6 is independent of Ca^2+^. Co‐local
