Function Functions in an early step of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Has both a membrane binding/bending activity and the ability to recruit proteins essential to the formation of functional clathrin-coated pits. Has a lipid-binding activity with a preference for membranes enriched in phosphatidylserine and phosphoinositides (Pi(4,5) biphosphate) like the plasma membrane. Its membrane-bending activity might be important for the subsequent action of clathrin and adaptors in the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles. Involved in adaptor protein complex AP- 2-dependent endocytosis of the transferin receptor, it also functions in the AP-2-independent endocytosis of the LDL receptor. {ECO:0000269PubMed:21762413, ECO:0000269PubMed:21883765}.
Subcellular Localization Membrane, clathrin-coated pit {ECO:0000305PubMed:20448150, ECO:0000305PubMed:21762413}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305PubMed:20448150, ECO:0000305PubMed:21762413}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000305PubMed:20448150, ECO:0000305PubMed:21762413}. Note=Associated with forming but not mature clathrin-coated vesicles. The recruitment to coated-pits precede the one of clathrin and the adaptor protein complex AP-2.
