Description

EPS15L1 encodes a protein that is a member of the EPS15 family, involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and intracellular trafficking. It functions as a substrate for the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and plays a role in receptor internalization and signaling. The protein contains EH (Eps15 homology) domains and coiled-coil regions, mediating interactions with other endocytic proteins.

Protein Summary

EPS15L1 is a 907-amino acid protein with three N-terminal EH domains, a coiled-coil region, and a C-terminal domain. It localizes to clathrin-coated pits and vesicles, interacting with AP-2, clathrin, and other endocytic adaptors. The protein is ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in brain and testis. It is involved in receptor internalization and may play a role in synaptic vesicle recycling.
