ID:EPN2_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Epsin-2; AltName: Full=EPS-15-interacting protein 2; FUNCTION: Plays a role in the formation of clathrin-coated invaginations and endocytosis. SUBUNIT: Binds EPS15 (By similarity). Binds AP-2 and clathrin. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic vesicle, clathrin- coated vesicle. Note=In punctate structures throughout the cell, associated with clathrin-coated vesicles, and particularly concentrated in the region of the Golgi complex. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highest expression is found in brain. Detected at lower levels in lung and liver. DOMAIN: The NPF repeat domain is involved in EPS15 binding. DOMAIN: The DPW repeat domain is involved in AP-2 and clathrin binding. PTM: Ubiquitinated (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the epsin family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 ENTH (epsin N-terminal homology) domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 UIM (ubiquitin-interacting motif) repeats. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAA83017.2; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
