Biological function summary
AAK1 functions as part of the AP2 clathrin adaptor complex which is essential for the internalization of cargo at the plasma membrane. Its activity is important for maintaining proper cellular uptake of nutrients receptors and signaling molecules. In neurons AAK1 regulates the cycle of synaptic vesicles impacting neurotransmission by influencing vesicle release and recycling. It has been suggested that AAK1 also contributes to the modulation of dendritic spine morphology through its kinase activity.
Pathways
AAK1 participates in endocytosis and intracellular trafficking pathways. It is directly involved in the clathrin-mediated endocytic route interacting with other proteins such as clathrin and dynamin. This association with clathrin provides a mechanism for cargo selection and membrane curvature linking AAK1 to the broader system of intracellular transport. In addition AAK1 connects to MAPK signaling through potential cross-talk mechanisms highlighting its role in cellular signaling regulation.
