Cancer tissues generally displayed moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. Thyroid cancers and a few gliomas showed strong staining. Several lymphomas, testicular, pancreatic, gastric and endometrial cancers were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
AAK1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
DKFZp686K16132, KIAA1048
Description
AP2 associated kinase 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Adaptor-related protein complex 2 (AP-2 complexes) functions during receptor-mediated endocytosis to trigger clathrin assembly, interact with membrane-bound receptors, and recruit encodytic accessory factors. This gene encodes a member of the SNF1 subfamily of Ser/Thr protein kinases. The protein interacts with and phosphorylates a subunit of the AP-2 complex, which promotes binding of AP-2 to sorting signals found in membrane-bound receptors and subsequent receptor endocytosis. Its kinase activity is stimulated by clathrin. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
