'''Adaptin''' (AP) are proteins which mediate the formation of vescicles by clathrin-coated pits. The AP complex is a heterotetramer composed of 2 '''large AP''': AP-α or AP-γ and AP-β, a '''medium-size AP''': AP-μ and '''small AP''': AP-σ. AP complexes connect proteins and lipids to clathrin budding sites. There are different AP complexes in mammals.<ref name="Ad">PMID:12086608</ref> | '''Adaptin''' (AP) are proteins which mediate the formation of vescicles by clathrin-coated pits.
