Function
Component of the adaptor protein complex 2 (AP-2). Adaptor protein complexes function in protein transport via transport vesicles in different membrane traffic pathways. Adaptor protein complexes are vesicle coat components and appear to be involved in cargo selection and vesicle formation. AP-2 is involved in clathrin-dependent endocytosis in which cargo proteins are incorporated into vesicles surrounded by clathrin (clathrin-coated vesicles, CCVs) which are destined for fusion with the early endosome. The clathrin lattice serves as a mechanical scaffold but is itself unable to bind directly to membrane components. Clathrin-associated adaptor protein (AP) complexes which can bind directly to both the clathrin lattice and to the lipid and protein components of membranes are considered to be the major clathrin adaptors contributing the CCV formation. AP-2 also serves as a cargo receptor to selectively sort the membrane proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis. AP-2 seems to play a role in the recycling of synaptic vesicle membranes from the presynaptic surface. AP-2 recognizes Y-X-X-[FILMV] (Y-X-X-Phi) and [ED]-X-X-X-L-[LI] endocytosis signal motifs within the cytosolic tails of transmembrane cargo molecules. AP-2 may also play a role in maintaining normal post-endocytic trafficking through the ARF6-regulated, non-clathrin pathway. During long-term potentiation in hippocampal neurons, AP-2 is responsible for the endocytosis of ADAM10 (PubMed:23676497). The AP-2 beta subunit acts via its C-terminal appendage domain as a scaffolding platform for endocytic accessory proteins; at least some clathrin-associated sorting proteins (CLASPs) are recognized by their [DE]-X(1,2)-F-X-X-[FL]-X-X-X-R motif. The AP-2 beta subunit binds to clathrin heavy chain, promoting clathrin lattice assembly; clathrin displaces at least some CLASPs from AP2B1 which probably then can be positioned for further coat assembly.

Supplementary info

- Activity summary
AP2B1 also known as the beta-1 subunit of the adaptor protein complex 2 (AP-2 complex) has a mass of approximately 105 kDa. It plays an important role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis by forming a bridge between clathrin and cargo molecules. The AP-2 complex is essential for selecting and concentrating cargo proteins that are destined for endocytosis. AP2B1 is highly expressed in most tissues with abundant presence in brain tissue suggesting its importance in neural processes.
- Biological function summary
AP2B1 functions as a component of the AP-2 complex which is essential for the formation of clathrin-coated pits on the plasma membrane. It contributes to the regulation of receptor-mediated endocytosis a process important for nutrient uptake and signaling receptor regulation. The AP-2 complex binds to the cytoplasmic tails of transmembrane proteins mediating their internalization into cells for degradation or recycling. This highlights AP2B1's role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to environmental signals.
- Pathways
Researchers have shown that AP2B1 is actively involved in the endocytic pathway facilitating the internalization of cell surface receptors into vesicles. It is also linked to the sorting of cargo proteins within the endocytosis pathway in tandem with other proteins like calmodulin. The interaction with dynamin regulates the membrane scission events necessary for vesicle release. Both calmodulin and dynamin are important for the successful execution of these pathways where AP2B1 plays a central role.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Disruptions in AP2B1 function link to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease potentially due to impaired endocytosis and subsequent cellular signaling dysfunctions. Abnormalities in the AP-2 complex including AP2B1 have also been associated with cancers like melanoma where altered receptor endocytosis can lead to uncontrolled cell signaling and proliferation. Both conditions involve pathways where dynamin works closely with AP2B1 hinting at its wider implications in disease progression and therapeutic target potential.
