关于 EPN2

功能概要

该基因编码一种与网格蛋白和衔接子相关蛋白复合物 2，α 1 亚基相互作用的蛋白质。该蛋白质存在于脑源性网格蛋白包被的囊泡部分中，并定位于围高尔基体区域和细胞外围。该蛋白质被认为参与网格蛋白介导的内吞作用。该基因的交替剪接导致编码不同亚型的多个转录变体。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

This gene encodes a protein which interacts with clathrin and adaptor-related protein complex 2, alpha 1 subunit. The protein is found in a brain-derived clathrin-coated vesicle fraction and localizes to the peri-Golgi region and the cell periphery. The protein is thought to be involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Alternate splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
