CONT

The predicted protein sequence of the garnet product resembles clathrin and nonclathrin adaptin proteins and is highly similar to the delta subunit of the newly isolated mammalian AP-3 adaptin complex, which is associated with the trans-Golgi network and endosomes. This suggests that garnet encodes a protein that acts in the intracellular sorting and trafficking of vesicles from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes, and related specialized organelles such as the pigment granule.

DEF

Protéine d'assemblage liant les vésicules aux membranes du réseau Trans du Golgi.

CONT

Certaines des vésicules qui bourgeonnent du réseau Trans du Golgi [TGN] sont revêtues d'un maillage polygonal de structures appelées «triskélions» (des trios d'une protéine, la clathrine) qui se lient aux membranes du TGN par des protéines d'assemblage, les adaptines, grâce à l'ARF [Adenosine-diphosphate Ribosylation factor].
