| Function | Clathrin is the major protein of the polyhedral coat of coated pits and vesicles. Two different adapter protein complexes link the clathrin lattice either to the plasma membrane or to the trans-Golgi network. |
| Subcellular Location | Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}. Membrane, coated pit {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}. Melanosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}. Note=Cytoplasmic face of coated pits and vesicles. Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. |
