A structural mechanism for phosphorylation-dependent inactivation of the AP2 complex

High-resolution cryo-EM structures of NECAP bound to phosphorylated AP2 are reported and it is proposed that phosphorylation marks adaptors for inactivation.

Tyrosine-based endocytic motifs stimulate oligomerization of AP-2 adaptor complexes.

It is reported here that soluble tyrosine-based endocytic sorting motif peptides facilitate clathrin/AP-2 recruitment to liposomal membranes and induce adaptor oligomerization even in the absence of a lipid bilayer.

Recognition of a Basic AP-2 Binding Motif within the C2B Domain of Synaptotagmin Is Dependent on Multimerization*

It is hypothesized that basic motifs within multimeric membrane proteins may represent a novel type of clathrin/AP-2-dependent endocytosis signal.

A structure-based mechanism for initiation of AP-3 coated vesicle formation

This study provides a structural mechanism for the recruitment and initial polymerization of AP-3, which mediates cargo sorting in tubular and recycling endosomes, and proposes that Arf1 and AP-3 collaborate to form clathrin-independent coats in the endosomal compartment.

Crystal structure of the clathrin adaptor protein 1 core.

The crystal structure of the core of the AP-1 complex, which functions in the trans-Golgi network (TGN), is reported and it is shown that directed mutations of residues at a particular corner of the gamma chain prevent recruitment to the TGN in cells and diminish PI-4-P- dependent, but not Arf1-dependent, liposome binding in vitro.

Functional Analysis of AP-2 α and μ2 Subunits

There is some functional redundancy in the binding sites of the various AP-2 subunits, because no single mutation totally abolishes function, and a new model system is established that can be used both for additional structure-function analyses, and as a way of testing tagged constructs for function in vivo.

The μ2 Subunit of the Clathrin Adaptor AP‐2 Binds to FDNPVY and YppØ Sorting Signals at Distinct Sites

The results suggest the possibility that low‐density lipoprotein receptor uptake may be modulated specifically and independently of other proteins in the clathrin pathway.

NECAPs are negative regulators of the AP2 clathrin adaptor complex

This work reports that loss of ncap-1, the sole C. elegans gene encoding an adaptiN Ear-binding Coat-Associated Protein (NECAP), bypasses the requirement for FCHO-1 and proposes NECAPs function late in endocytosis to inactivate AP2.

A structural explanation for the binding of endocytic dileucine motifs by the AP2 complex

Most transmembrane proteins are selected as transport-vesicle cargo through the recognition of short, linear amino-acid motifs in their cytoplasmic portions by vesicle coat proteins. For…

Crystal structure of the alpha appendage of AP-2 reveals a recruitment platform for clathrin-coat assembly.

Structural-based mutagenesis shows that alterations to the molecular surface of a highly conserved region on the platform domain differentially affect associations of the appendage with amphiphysin, eps15,epsin, and AP180, revealing a common protein-binding interface.

Regulatory interactions in the recognition of endocytic sorting signals by AP‐2 complexes

The findings indicate that receptor recruitment can be coupled to clathrin coat assembly and suggest a mechanism for regulation of membrane traffic by lipid products of phosphoinositide 3‐kinases.

Sequence requirements for the recognition of tyrosine‐based endocytic signals by clathrin AP‐2 complexes.

It is concluded that sorting into the endocytic pathway is governed by a surprisingly simple interaction between the mu 2 chain and a tyrosine‐containing tetrapeptide sequence.

Phosphoinositide–Ap-2 Interactions Required for Targeting to Plasma Membrane Clathrin-Coated Pits

It is suggested that phosphoinositides play a critical and general role in adaptor incorporation into plasma membrane clathrin-coated pits and ligand-dependent recruitment of arrestin-receptor complexes to coated pits.

Targeting signals and subunit interactions in coated vesicle adaptor complexes

The results indicate that the adaptor subunits act in concert to target the complex to the appropriate membrane.

A structural explanation for the recognition of tyrosine-based endocytotic signals.

Crystal structures of the internalization signal binding domain of mu2 complexed with theinternalization signal peptides of epidermal growth factor receptor and the trans-Golgi network protein TGN38 have been determined at 2.7 angstrom resolution.

Binding of AP2 to Sorting Signals Is Modulated by AP2 Phosphorylation*

A cycle of phosphorylation/dephosphorylation as a mechanism for regulating the reversible association of AP2 with membranes and sorting signals during the process of receptor-mediated endocytosis is shown.

Simultaneous binding of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and clathrin by AP180 in the nucleation of clathrin lattices on membranes.

The structure of the NH2-terminal domain of CALM bound to phosphatidylinositol-4,5- bisphosphate [PtdIns( 4,5)P2] via a lysine-rich motif is presented, and it is shown that AP180 may serve to tether clathrin to the membrane simultaneously, and was shown by using purified components and a budding assay on preformed lipid monolayers.

The structure and function of the β2‐adaptin appendage domain

Using structure‐directed mutagenesis, the ability of the β2 appendage alone to bind directly to clathrin and the accessory proteins AP180, epsin and eps15 at the same site is demonstrated.
