| Background: |
domain:An N-terminal amphipathic helix, the BAR domain and a second amphipathic helix inserted into helix 1 of the BAR domain (N-BAR domain) induce membrane curvature and bind curved membranes.,function:Implicated in endocytosis. May recruit other proteins to membranes with high curvature.,similarity:Belongs to the endophilin family.,similarity:Contains 1 BAR domain.,similarity:Contains 1 SH3 domain.,subcellular location:Associated with postsynaptic endosomes in hippocampal neurons. Associated with presynaptic endosomes in olfactory neurons.,subunit:Interacts with ARC (By similarity). Interacts with DNM1, SGIP1 and SYNJ1. Interacts with the huntingtin exon 1 protein (HDEX1P) containing a glutamine repeat in the pathological range and promotes formation of insoluble polyglutamine-containing aggregates in vivo.,tissue specificity:Brain and testis., |
