Target Details for alpha Adaptin

Target: alpha Adaptin (AP2A1) (Adaptor-Related Protein Complex 2, alpha 1 Subunit (AP2A1))

Alternative Name: Adaptin alpha

Background: Sorting of integral membrane proteins at various stages of the endocytic and secretory pathways is mediated by vesicular trafficking between a variety of organelles. Two sorting signals are tyrosine-based and dileucine-based signals that interact with heterotetrameric adaptor protein complexes (AP-1, AP-2, AP-3, and AP-4), which are associated with the vesicle coats. These coatomers contain two large Adaptin proteins (alpha, gamma, delta, or epsilon and beta1, beta2, beta3, or beta4, respectively) that are noncovalently linked to one medium chain (µ1, µ2, µ3, or µ4) and one small chain (sigma1, sigma2, sigma3, or sigma4). The AP-1 and AP-3 complexes are involved in protein sorting from the TGN and endosomes, while AP-2 adaptor complexes are involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. In the AP-2 complex, Adaptin alpha is expressed in two very similar isoforms from two different genes. Adaptin alpha [A] (112kDa) is expressed primarily in brain, while Adaptin alpha [C] (105kDa) is expressed in brain, liver and other tissues. This antibody is routinely tested by western blot analysis.
