General annotation (Comments)

Function	Binds to membranes enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). Modifies membrane curvature and facilitates the formation of clathrin-coated invaginations. Regulates receptor-mediated endocytosis. Ref.1 Ref.7 Ref.10
Subunit structure	Monomer. Binds REPS2 and ITSN1 By similarity. Binds EPS15, clathrin, ZBTB16/ZNF145, AP2A1 and AP2A2. Binds ubiquitinated proteins. Interacts with RALBP1 in a complex also containing NUMB and TFAP2A during interphase and mitosis. Interacts with AP2B1. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.5 Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.9
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Nucleus. Membrane › clathrin-coated pit. Note: Associated with the cytoplasmic membrane at sites where clathrin-coated pits are forming. Colocalizes with clathrin and AP-2 in a punctate pattern on the plasma membrane. Colocalizes with clathrin at the Golgi complex. Detected in presynaptic nerve terminals and in synaptosomes. May shuttle to the nucleus when associated with ZBTB16/ZNF145. Ref.1 Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.9
Tissue specificity	Ubiquitous. Ref.1
Domain	The NPF repeat domain is involved in EPS15 binding. The DPW repeat domain is involved in AP2A2 and clathrin binding. The [DE]-X(1,2)-F-X-X-[FL]-X-X-X-R motif mediates interaction the AP-2 complex subunit AP2B1 By similarity.
Post-translational modification	Ubiquitinated. Ref.8 Phosphorylated on serine and/or threonine residues in mitotic cells. Phosphorylation reduces interaction with REPS2, AP-2 and the membrane fraction. Depolarization of synaptosomes results in dephosphorylation. Ref.3
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the epsin family. Contains 1 ENTH (epsin N-terminal homology) domain. Contains 3 UIM (ubiquitin-interacting motif) repeats.
