It has a mass of approximately 108 kDa. This protein is primarily expressed in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells facilitating the assembly of clathrin-coated vesicles. Alpha1-adaptin interacts with clathrin and cargo receptor proteins acting mechanically to mediate vesicle formation and endocytosis. Its role spans across various cell types due to its involvement in cellular uptake processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nAlpha1-adaptin plays an important role in regulating endocytosis by assisting the AP-2 complex in selecting and concentrating specific cargo molecules for inclusion in vesicles. This complex is essential for internalizing membrane proteins and lipids at the plasma membrane. The AP-2 complex where Alpha1-adaptin acts as a component interacts with other proteins like clathrin and various membrane receptors ensuring proper cellular distribution of nutrients and signaling molecules.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nAlpha1-adaptin is critical in endocytic and trafficking pathways. It associates with proteins such as clathrin and AP-2 complex components which are involved in mediating the endocytic pathway. Alpha1-adaptin assumes a critical role in receptor-mediated endocytosis working alongside other adaptin families. Additionally it is involved in actin cytoskeleton dynamics influencing intracellular transport and cellular signaling pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlpha1-adaptin's function links to conditions like neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. It interacts with proteins involved in pathological processes such as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in cancer which undergoes deregulation and faulty endocytosis. Furthermore defects in alpha-adaptin function may contribute to neurodevelopmental disorders due to impaired synaptic vesicle recycling and neurotransmitter regulation. The AP-2 complex including Alpha1-adaptin is therefore a significant player in understanding the molecular mechanisms of these disease processes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850382364841,"sku":"ab151720","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab151720","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
