(A) Schematic representation of AP complexes. Each AP complex consists of two large subunits (γ/α/δ/ε and β1-4), one medium subunit (μ1-4), and one small subunit (σ1-4). Some subunits exist in more than one isoform. (B) Bipartite structure of μ2 (approximate residue numbers indicated in parentheses) and ribbon representation of its YXXØ-binding domain complexed to a DYQRLN peptide (adapted from reference ; PDB accession code 1BXX). (C) Residues of rat μ2 involved in interactions with YXXØ signals and corresponding residues in other members of the AP μ family. Y- and Ø-binding residues are indicated in red and blue, respectively.
