Rabbit anti-Human AP1M1 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9BXS5

Target Species

Human

Target Name

AP1M1

Target Full Name

AP-1 complex subunit mu-1

Target Function

Subunit of clathrin-associated adaptor protein complex 1 that plays a role in protein sorting in the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. The AP complexes mediate the recruitment of clathrin to membranes and the recognition of sorting signals within the cytosolic tails of transmembrane cargo molecules.

Target Subcellular Location

Golgi apparatus. Cytoplasmic vesicle, clathrin-coated vesicle membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Note=Component of the coat surrounding the cytoplasmic face of coated vesicles located at the Golgi complex.

Target Protein Families

Adaptor complexes medium subunit family

Target Synonyms

Adaptor protein complex AP-1 mu-1 subunit; Adaptor-related protein complex 1 mu-1 subunit; AP-1 complex subunit mu-1; AP-mu chain family member mu1A; Ap1m1; AP1M1_HUMAN; AP47; CLAPM2; Clathrin adaptor protein AP47; Clathrin assembly protein complex 1 medium chain 1; Clathrin assembly protein complex 1 medium chain; Clathrin assembly protein complex AP1 mu subunit; Clathrin coat assembly protein AP47; Clathrin coat-associated protein AP47; CLTNM; Golgi adaptor AP 1 47 kDa protein; Golgi adaptor HA1/AP1 adaptin mu-1 subunit; HA1 47 kDa subunit; MU 1A; Mu-adaptin 1; Mu1A-adaptin

Target Background

The protein encoded by this gene is the medium chain of the trans-Golgi network clathrin-associated protein complex AP-1. The other components of this complex are beta-prime-adaptin, gamma-adaptin, and the small chain AP1S1. This complex is located at the Golgi vesicle and links clathrin to receptors in coated vesicles. These vesicles are involved in endocytosis and Golgi processing. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct protein isoforms have been found for this gene.
