Summary
ITSN2 (intersectin 2, HGNC:6184) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2p23.3, encoding Intersectin-2 (Q9NZM3). Adapter protein that may provide indirect link between the endocytic membrane traffic and the actin assembly machinery.
This gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein which contains SH3 domains. This protein is a member of a family of proteins involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Intersectin 2 is thought to regulate the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles and also may function in the induction of T cell antigen receptor (TCR) endocytosis.

Function. Adapter protein that may provide indirect link between the endocytic membrane traffic and the actin assembly machinery. May regulate the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles (CCPs). Seems to be involved in CCPs maturation including invagination or budding. Involved in endocytosis of integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) and transferrin receptor (TFR). Plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes.
Subunit / interactions. Belongs to a complex that may contain multimers of ITSN1, ITSN2 and EPS15, and different partners according to the step in the endocytic process. Interacts with ADAM15. Interacts with FASLG. Interacts with ANKRD54. Interacts with FCHO2. (Microbial infection) Interacts with herpes virus 8 protein K15.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in melanocytes. Ubiquitous. Isoform 1 is primarily expressed in adult heart and liver.
Miscellaneous. Overexpression results in the inhibition of the transferrin uptake and the blockage of the clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 89 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
