| Function |
Binds to membranes enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). Modifies membrane curvature and facilitates the formation of clathrin-coated invaginations (By similarity). Regulates receptor-mediated endocytosis. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10557078}.

| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250}. Membrane, clathrin-coated pit {ECO:0000250}. Note=Associated with the cytoplasmic membrane at sites where clathrin-coated pits are forming. Colocalizes with clathrin and AP-2 in a punctate pattern on the plasma membrane. Detected in presynaptic nerve terminals and in Golgi stacks. May shuttle to the nucleus when associated with ZBTB16/ZNF145 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
