Table of Pairwise Domain-Domain Interactions for the domain:
Alpha_adaptinC2

Interacting Domains ↕CD ↕ Accession (External Link)Description ↕
Alpha_adaptin_Cpfam02296Alpha adaptin AP2, C-terminal domain. Alpha adaptin is a hetero tetramer which regulates clathrin-bud formation. The carboxyl-terminal appendage of the alpha subunit regulates translocation of endocytic accessory proteins to the bud site.
B2-adapt-app_Cpfam09066Beta2-adaptin appendage, C-terminal sub-domain. Members of this family adopt a structure consisting of a 5 stranded beta-sheet, flanked by one alpha helix on the outer side, and by two alpha helices on the inner side. This domain is required for binding to clathrin, and its subsequent polymerisation. Furthermore, a hydrophobic patch present in the domain also binds to a subset of D-phi-F/W motif-containing proteins that are bound by the alpha-adaptin appendage domain (epsin, AP180, eps15).
