About AP180
Predicted to enable several functions, including SNARE binding activity; clathrin binding activity; and phosphatidylinositol binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including postsynaptic density; presynaptic endosome; and presynaptic membrane. Predicted to be extrinsic component of endosome membrane. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; cytoplasmic vesicle; and parallel fiber to Purkinje cell synapse. Predicted to be extrinsic component of presynaptic endocytic zone membrane. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

About PE
Phycoerythrin (PE, R-PE) is a red-emitting fluorescent protein-chromophore complex that can be excited the 488-nm blue, 532-nm green, or 561-nm yellow-green laser with increasing efficiency and captured with a 586/14 nm bandpass filter. PE has an excitation peak at 565 nm and an emission peak at 578 nm. PE is 240kD in size and has an extinction coefficient of ~2x10^6 which makes it one of the brightest fluorophores available and a potent donor upon which to build tandem fluorophores with longer Stoke's Shifts.
