UniProt Protein Function: | AP1M2: Subunit of clathrin-associated adaptor protein complex 1 that plays a role in protein sorting in the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. The AP complexes mediate the recruitment of clathrin to membranes and the recognition of sorting signals within the cytosolic tails of transmembrane cargo molecules. Belongs to the adaptor complexes medium subunit family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
UniProt Protein Details: | Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19p13.2 Cellular Component: Golgi membrane; cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; clathrin adaptor complex; intracellular membrane-bound organelle; lysosomal membrane; clathrin coated vesicle membrane; trans-Golgi network membrane; cytosol Biological Process: viral reproduction; vesicle targeting; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class II; post-Golgi vesicle-mediated transport; regulation of defense response to virus by virus; protein targeting |
NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a subunit of the heterotetrameric adaptor-related protein comlex 1 (AP-1), which belongs to the adaptor complexes medium subunits family. This protein is capable of interacting with tyrosine-based sorting signals. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014] |
