Gene: AP1B1

Alternate names for this Gene: ADTB1|AP105A|BAM22|CLAPB2|KIDAR

Gene Summary: Adaptor protein complex 1 is found at the cytoplasmic face of coated vesicles located at the Golgi complex, where it mediates both the recruitment of clathrin to the membrane and the recognition of sorting signals within the cytosolic tails of transmembrane receptors. This complex is a heterotetramer composed of two large, one medium, and one small adaptin subunit. The protein encoded by this gene serves as one of the large subunits of this complex and is a member of the adaptin protein family. This gene is a candidate meningioma gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q12.2

Description of this Gene: adaptor related protein complex 1 subunit beta 1
