AP2 CLATHRIN ADAPTOR CORE IN ACTIVE COMPLEX WITH CARGO PEPTIDESAP2 CLATHRIN ADAPTOR CORE IN ACTIVE COMPLEX WITH CARGO PEPTIDES
Structural highlights
Function[AP2M1_RAT] Component of the adaptor protein complex 2 (AP-2). Adaptor protein complexes function in protein transport via transport vesicles in different membrane traffic pathways. Adaptor protein complexes are vesicle coat components and appear to be involved in cargo selection and vesicle formation. AP-2 is involved in clathrin-dependent endocytosis in which cargo proteins are incorporated into vesicles surrounded by clathrin (clathrin-coated vesicles, CCVs) which are destined for fusion with the early endosome. The clathrin lattice serves as a mechanical scaffold but is itself unable to bind directly to membrane components. Clathrin-associated adaptor protein (AP) complexes which can bind directly to both the clathrin lattice and to the lipid and protein components of membranes are considered to be the major clathrin adaptors contributing the CCV formation. AP-2 also serves as a cargo receptor to selectively sort the membrane proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis. AP-2 seems to play a role in the recycling of synaptic vesicle membranes from the presynaptic surface. AP-2 recognizes Y-X-X-[FILMV] (Y-X-X-Phi) and [ED]-X-X-X-L-[LI] endocytosis signal motifs within the cytosolic tails of transmembrane cargo molecules. AP-2 may also play a role in maintaining normal post-endocytic trafficking through the ARF6-regulated, non-clathrin pathway. The AP-2 mu subunit binds to transmembrane cargo proteins; it recognizes the Y-X-X-Phi motifs. The surface region interacting with to the Y-X-X-Phi motif is inaccessible in cytosolic AP-2, but becomes accessible through a conformational change following phosphorylation of AP-2 mu subunit at 'Tyr-156' in membrane-associated AP-2. The membrane-specific phosphorylation event appears to involve assembled clathrin which activates the AP-2 mu kinase AAK1 (By similarity). Plays a role in endocytosis of frizzled family members upon Wnt signaling.[1] [2] [3] [4] [AP2B1_HUMAN] Component of the adaptor protein complex 2 (AP-2).

AP-2 may also play a role in maintaining normal post-endocytic trafficking through the ARF6-regulated, non-clathrin pathway. The AP-2 beta subunit acts via its C-terminal appendage domain as a scaffolding platform for endocytic accessory proteins; at least some clathrin-associated sorting proteins (CLASPs) are recognized by their [DE]-X(1,2)-F-X-X-[FL]-X-X-X-R motif. The AP-2 beta subunit binds to clathrin heavy chain, promoting clathrin lattice assembly; clathrin displaces at least some CLASPs from AP2B1 which probably then can be positioned for further coat assembly.[5] [6] [7] [8] [AP2S1_MOUSE] Component of the adaptor protein complex 2 (AP-2).

The AP-2 alpha and AP-2 sigma subunits are thought to contribute to the recognition of the [ED]-X-X-X-L-[LI] motif (By similarity).[9] [10] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe AP2 adaptor complex (alpha, beta2, sigma2, and mu2 subunits) crosslinks the endocytic clathrin scaffold to PtdIns4,5P(2)-containing membranes and transmembrane protein cargo. In the "locked" cytosolic form, AP2's binding sites for the two endocytic motifs, YxxPhi on the C-terminal domain of mu2 (C-mu2) and [ED]xxxL[LI] on sigma2, are blocked by parts of beta2. Using protein crystallography, we show that AP2 undergoes a large conformational change in which C-mu2 relocates to an orthogonal face of the complex, simultaneously unblocking both cargo-binding sites; the previously unstructured mu2 linker becomes helical and binds back onto the complex. This structural rearrangement results in AP2's four PtdIns4,5P(2)- and two endocytic motif-binding sites becoming coplanar, facilitating their simultaneous interaction with PtdIns4,5P(2)/cargo-containing membranes. Using a range of biophysical techniques, we show that the endocytic cargo binding of AP2 is driven by its interaction with PtdIns4,5P(2)-containing membranes. A large-scale conformational change couples membrane recruitment to cargo binding in the AP2 clathrin adaptor complex.,Jackson LP, Kelly BT, McCoy AJ, Gaffry T, James LC, Collins BM, Honing S, Evans PR, Owen DJ Cell. 2010 Jun 25;141(7):1220-9.
