Abstract excerpt
Epsins are endocytic proteins with a structured epsin N-terminal homology (ENTH) domain that binds phosphoinositides and a poorly structured C-terminal region that interacts with ubiquitin and endocytic machinery, including clathrin and endocytic scaffolding proteins. Yeast has two redundant genes encoding epsins, ENT1 and ENT2; deleting both genes is lethal. We demonstrate that the ENTH domain is both necessary...
