Abstract excerpt

Synaptic vesicles must be recycled to sustain neurotransmission, in large part via clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Clathrin is recruited to endocytic sites on the plasma membrane by the AP2 adaptor complex. The medium subunit (micro2) of AP2 binds to cargo proteins and phosphatidylinositol-4 ,5-bi...
