PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	a N terminal module composed of epsin NH2 terminal homology domain
	epsin N-terminal homology (ENTH) domain (ENTH domains comprise multiple alpha-helices folded upon each other to form a compact globular structure that has been implicated in interactions with lipids and proteins) (Pubmed 12750376)
	a VHS domain,at the central region
	multiple DPW motifs
	two clathrin binding sequences
	several Eps15 homology (EH) domain binding motif that function in vesicular trafficking and endocytosis
	three C terminal NPF motifs

	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic,vesicle
text	peri-Golgi region
	partially colocalized with clathrin

basic FUNCTION	implicated in membrane dynamics at the cell surfaces
	involved in the regulation of endocytosis
	endocytic adaptor with putative functions in general aspects of clathrin-mediated endocytosis as well as in the internalization of specific membrane proteins
	role of epsin as a specialized endocytic adaptor, with a critical role in the activation of Notch signaling
