ERC1/RET Fusion Protein

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein

**Definition:** A fusion protein encoded by the ERC1/RET fusion gene. This protein is comprised of the N-terminal half of the ELKS/Rab6-interacting/CAST family member 1 protein, including the coiled-coil domain, fused with most of the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of the proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Ret protein, including the tyrosine kinase domain.

**Synonyms:** - ELKS-RET Fusion Protein - ELKS/RET Fusion Protein - ELKS/Rab6-Interacting/CAST Family Member 1/Proto-Oncogene Tyrosine-Protein Kinase Receptor Ret Fusion Protein - ERC1-RET Fusion Protein - ERC1::RET Fusion Protein
