Snx5 (NM_024225) Mouse Recombinant Protein

Involved in several stages of intracellular trafficking. Interacts with membranes containing phosphatidylinositol lipids. Acts in part as component of the retromer membrane-deforming SNX-BAR subcomplex. The SNX-BAR retromer mediates retrograde transport of cargo proteins from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and is involved in endosome-to-plasma membrane transport for cargo protein recycling. The SNX-BAR subcomplex functions to deform the donor membrane into a tubular profile called endosome-to-TGN transport carrier (ETC) . Does not have in vitro vesicle-to-membrane remodeling activity. Involved in retrograde transport of lysosomal enzyme receptor IGF2R. May function as link between endosomal transport vesicles and dynactin. Plays a role in the internalization of EGFR after EGF stimulation. Involved in EGFR endosomal sorting and degradation; the function involves PIP5K1C and is retromer-independent. Together with PIP5K1C facilitates HGS interaction with ubiquitinated EGFR, which initiates EGFR sorting to intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) of the multivesicular body for subsequent lysosomal degradation. Involved in E-cadherin sorting and degradation; inhibits PIP5K1C-mediated E-cadherin degradation (By similarity) . Plays a role in macropinocytosis (PubMed:18854019) .[UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Function]
