Ap2m1 - adaptor-related protein complex 2, mu 1 subunit Gene

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 11773

Summary

This gene encodes the mu subunit of the clathrin adaptor protein complex AP-2. It mediates sorting of cargo proteins harboring Y-X-X-Phi motifs into clathrin-coated vesicles. Alternate splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 2, 8 and 19. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]
