Gene:
adaptor-related protein complex 2, beta 1 subunit
Gene ID:
191600
Symbol:
AP2B1
Species:
1000
Description:
The beta adaptin subunit is part of the clathrin coat assembly complex which links clathrin to receptors in coated pits and vesicles. These vesicles are involved in endocytosis and Golgi processing. The beta 1 subunit is one of the assembly proteins which binds to clathrin and initiates coat formation.
