Two papers [4,5•] describe the structures of the ANTH domain of two proteins of the AP180 family, LAP from Drosophila and rat CALM. Ford et al. [5•] describe complexes with lipid headgroups, showing that the two adjacent phosphates are bound on the tips of lysine sidechains in a most unusual surface binding site. Full-length AP180 stimulates clathrin assembly and forms clathrin buds on lipid monolayers (visualised by electron microscopy), which become more invaginated in the presence of the AP2 adaptor complex.
6. 3 shows that the ligand binds in a deep cleft formed by the folding of N-terminal residues that are disordered in the unligated structure [9] into a new α helix, including residues previously identified to bind the ligand [10]. This creates an exposed hydrophobic ridge on the helix. Mutations in this hydrophobic ridge show that it is essential both for the formation of lipid tubules by the ENTH domain and for the epsin-stimulated assembly of clathrin on lipid monolayers.

Signal binding to GGA VHS domains is modulated but not completely determined by phosphorylation of a serine residue before the aspartic acid in the recognition motif S(P)DxxLL, which binds to a positively charged patch on the protein.

For both epsin and AP180, no region of the protein apart from the N-terminal ENTH/ANTH domain shows evidence of any folded structure, by hydrodynamics or circular dichroism. This extended region (∼400 residues for epsin and ∼600 for AP180) contains a succession of binding sites for other endocytosis components, notably clathrin and AP2.

The crystal structures of the Sec23/Sec24 complex and the Sec23/Sar1 complex (with the GTP analogue GMPPNP) provide a detailed model of the Sec23/24/Sar1/GTP complex. Sec23 is an activating protein (GAP) for Sar1 and inserts an arginine sidechain into its active site.
