Crystal structure of the alpha appendage of AP-2 reveals a recruitment platform for clathrin-coat assembly.

Traub LM, Downs MA, Westrich JL, Fremont DH

AP-2 adaptors regulate clathrin-bud formation at the cell surface by recruiting clathrin trimers to the plasma membrane and by selecting certain membrane proteins for inclusion within the developing clathrin-coat structure. These functions are performed by discrete subunits of the adaptor heterotetramer. The carboxyl-terminal appendage of the AP-2 alpha subunit appears to regulate the translocation of several endocytic accessory proteins to ... [more]
