– NECAP2 belongs to the NECAP family. The WXXF motifs mediate binding of accessory proteins to the ear-domain of AP-1, GGAs and AP-2 through hydrophobic interactions. Adaptin ear-binding coat-associated protein 2 can interacts with AP1G1 and AP2A1 components of the adapter protein complex AP-1 and AP-2. It also interacts with the GAE domain proteins GGA1, GGA2 and GGA3.
