Mu-homology domain (MHD) of a adaptor protein (AP) encoded by mu-2 related death-inducing gene, MuD (also known as MUDENG)
This family corresponds to the MHD found in a protein encoded by MuD (also known as Adapter-related protein complex 5 subunit mu-1), which is distantly related to the C-terminal domain of the mu2 subunit of AP complexes that participates in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. MuD is evolutionary conserved from mammals to amphibians. It is able to induce cell death by itself and plays an important role in cell death in various tissues.
