| UniProt functional annotation for Q14677 | |||
| UniProt code: Q14677. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Binds to membranes enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). May have a role in transport via clathrin-coated vesicles from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes. Stimulates clathrin assembly. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429846, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12538641}. | |
| Subunit: | Binds clathrin heavy chain and AP-2 (PubMed:12213833, PubMed:12429846, PubMed:12538641). Interacts with VTI1B (PubMed:18033301). Interacts with GGA2 (via GAE domain) (PubMed:12213833, PubMed:14665628). Interacts with AP1G1 (via GAE domain) (PubMed:12213833, PubMed:12429846, PubMed:12538641, PubMed:14665628). Interacts with AP1G2 (via GAE domain) (PubMed:14665628). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12213833, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429846, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12538641, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14665628, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18033301}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle, clathrin- coated vesicle. Note=Found throughout the cell, with the exception of the cell surface. Concentrated in the perinuclear region and associated with clathrin-coated vesicles close to the trans-Golgi network. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Ubiquitously expressed at low to intermediate levels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429846, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12538641}. | |
| Polymorphism: | Genetic variations in CLINT1 may contribute to susceptibility to schizophrenia (SCZD1) and psychotic disorders in some populations. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15793701}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the epsin family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=BAA11488.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
