METHOD PSI-BLAST searches with the alpha adaptin ear domain sequence did not  
METHOD yield clues to relationships with other protein families.  Because  
METHOD alpha and gamma adaptins are alignable in all regions except the ear 
METHOD domains, and because the JPRED server predicted similar secondary  
METHOD structures in the gamma adaptin ear domain and in the alpha adaptin  
METHOD N-terminal part of the ear domain, we chose to treat the two as  
METHOD structurally related.  A MAP search for both domains yielded mainly 
METHOD IG-folds in the top hits.  An IG-fold was therefore picked as the  
METHOD template.  The alignment was made by maximum overlap of conserved 
METHOD hydrophobic stretches with the observed beta strands.
