Description
STON1 encodes stonin 1, a protein involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. It functions as an adaptor that links cargo molecules to the endocytic machinery, particularly in synaptic vesicle recycling. The gene is expressed in multiple tissues and has been implicated in neurological and cancer-related processes.

Protein Summary
Stonin 1 is a 798-amino acid protein containing a μ-homology domain (MHD) that interacts with AP-2 and cargo proteins. It localizes to clathrin-coated pits and facilitates the internalization of specific membrane proteins, including synaptotagmin. The protein is highly expressed in brain and testis, consistent with its role in synaptic function.
