Rabbit Anti-Endophilin II/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
This gene encodes a member of the endophilin family of Src homology 3 domain-containing proteins. The encoded protein is involved in endocytosis and may also play a role in the cell cycle. Overexpression of this gene may play a role in leukemogenesis, and the encoded protein has been implicated in acute myeloid leukemia as a fusion partner of the myeloid-lymphoid leukemia protein. Pseudogenes of this gene are located on the long arm of chromosomes 11 and 17. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Function:
Implicated in endocytosis. May recruit other proteins to membranes with high curvature.
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm. Early endosome membrane. Associated with postsynaptic endosomes in hippocampal neurons.
Tissue Specificity:
Ubiquitous. Higher expression in pancreas, placenta, prostate, testis and uterus.
DISEASE:
Note=In some cases of acute leukemia, a translocation results in the formation of a MLL-EEN fusion gene.
Similarity:
Belongs to the endophilin family.
Contains 1 BAR domain.
Contains 1 SH3 domain.
