'''Adaptin''' (AP) are proteins which mediate the formation of vescicles by clathrin-coated pits. The '''AP-2 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>

The '''AP-1 complex''' heterotetramer μ subunit packages insulin receptor substrates into clathrin-coated vescicles.  This is needed for insulin/insulin-like growth factor bioactivities including mitogenesis<ref>PMID:23478262</ref>.
The '''AP-3 complex''' heterotetramer is involved in the biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles<ref>PMID:15469849</ref>.  It contains subunits β3, μ3, δ and σ3<ref>PMID:9151686</ref>.
The '''AP-4 complex''' heterotetramer is involved in the targeting proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to yhr endosomal-lysosomal system.  It contains subunits β-type, μ-type, ε and σ-type<ref>PMID:11409905</ref>.
