Adaptin Γ Mouse, Unlabeled, Clone: 88, Bd, Mouse Monoclonal Antibody, Each

Details:

Sorting of integral membrane proteins at various stages of the endocytic and secretory pathways is mediated by vesicular trafficking between a variety of organelles. Two sorting signals are tyrosine-based and dileucine-based signals that interact with heterotetrameric adaptor protein complexes (ap-1, ap-2, ap-3, and ap-4), which are associated with the vesicle coats. These coatomers contain two large adaptin proteins (γ, α, δ, or ε and β1, β2, β3, β4 respectively) that are noncovalently linked to one medium chain (μ1, μ2, μ3, or μ4) and one small chain ( σ1, σ2, σ3, or σ4). The ap-1 and ap-3 complexes are involved in protein sorting from the tgn and endosomes, while ap-2 adaptor complexes are involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Adaptin ? Shows more homology with adaptin α than with adaptin β. The conserved regions between adaptins γ and α could be important for binding to other components of the ap-1 and ap-2 complexes, respectively.Immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, immunoprecipitation, western blotting
