NECAP1 Gene

NECAP endocytosis associated 1

This gene encodes a protein containing two characteristic WXXF motifs. The encoded protein localizes to clathrin-coated vesicles, where it binds components of the adapter protein complexes and aids in endocytosis. Loss of function of this gene results in early infantile epileptic encephalopathy-21. There is a pseudogene for this gene on chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]

NECAP2 Gene

NECAP endocytosis associated 2

This gene likely encodes a member of the adaptin-ear-binding coat-associated protein family. Studies of a similar protein in rat suggest a role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]
