AP-2 complex. The AP2 adaptor complex is a multimeric protein that works on the cell membrane to internalize cargo in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. [1] It is a stable complex of four adaptins which give rise to a structure that has a core domain and two appendage domains attached to the core domain by polypeptide linkers.
aP2 (adipocyte Protein 2) [5] is a carrier protein for fatty acids that is primarily expressed in adipocytes and macrophages. aP2 is also called fatty acid binding protein 4 ( FABP4 ). Blocking this protein either through genetic engineering or drugs [ 6 ] has the possibility of treating heart disease and the metabolic syndrome .
Activating protein 2 (AP-2), a mammalian transcription factor Adipocyte protein 2 (aP2), a carrier protein for fatty acids AP2 adaptors (AP-2 complex), which aid clathrin mediated endocytosis
AP2 adaptor complex associates with the plasma membrane and is responsible for endocytosis. [7] AP3 is responsible for protein trafficking to lysosomes and other related organelles. [8] AP4 is less well characterised. AP complexes are heterotetramers composed of two large subunits (adaptins), a medium subunit (mu) and a small subunit (sigma).
AP-2 complex subunit alpha-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AP2A1 gene. [5] This gene encodes the alpha 1 adaptin subunit of the adaptor protein 2 (AP2 adaptors) complex found in clathrin coated vesicles. The AP-2 complex is a heterotetramer consisting of two large adaptins (alpha or beta), a medium adaptin (mu), and a small ...

AP-2 complex subunit sigma is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AP2S1 gene. [5] [6] [7] One of two major clathrin-associated adaptor complexes, AP-2, is a heterotetramer which is associated with the plasma membrane. This complex is composed of two large chains, a medium chain, and a small chain. This gene encodes the small chain of ...
Activating Protein 2 (AP-2) is a family of closely related transcription factors [1] [2] which plays a critical role in regulating gene expression during early development. [ 3 ] References
