General description

EGFR pathway substrate 15 (Eps15) is an endocytic adaptor protein. It contains three N-terminal conserved EH (epsl5 homology) protein-protein interaction domains, a central coiled-coil region, and a C-terminal domain containing the adapter protein (AP)-2 and AP-1 binding domains. The C-terminal domain also contains two ubiquitin interaction motifs (UIMs), required for Eps15 binding to ubiquitin. Eps15 colocalizes with markers of the plasma membrane clathrin-coated pits and vesicles.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to an internal sequence of human EPS15 isoform A (GeneID: 2060), conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence is identical in human EPS15 isoform B, and in rat and mouse EPS15.

Application

Anti-EPS15 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in several immunochemical techniques including:
  • immunoblotting
  • immunofluorescence
  • immunohistochemistry

Biochem/physiol Actions

Epidermal growth factor (EGFR) pathway substrate 15 (Eps15), that plays a central role in the clathrin mediated internalization and degradation of EGFR. Eps15 is required in clathrin mediated endocytosis including of synaptic vesicles. This protein has been shown to regulate the endosomal trafficking of EGFR, possibly through the recruitment of the ubiquitinated receptors to the rims of clathrin-coated pits. The EPS15 gene yields two isoforms that are believed to reside in distinct subcellular locations and thus implicated in different aspects of endosomal trafficking.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phos­phate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Down-regulation of activated and ubiquitinated growth factor (GF) receptors by endocytosis and subsequent lysosomal degradation ensures attenuation of GF signaling. The ubiquitin-binding adaptor protein Eps15 (epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR] pathway substrate 15) functions in endocytosis of such receptors. Here
