Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17427};
Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17427}. Membrane, coated pit {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17427};
Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17427};
Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17427}. Note=AP-2 appears to be excluded from internalizing CCVs and to disengage from sites of endocytosis seconds before internalization of the nascent CCV. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17427}.
