The phosphoinositide binding Phox Homology domain of Sorting Nexins 7 and 30; The PX domain is a phosphoinositide (PI) binding module present in many proteins with diverse functions. Sorting nexins (SNXs) make up the largest group among PX domain containing proteins. They are involved in regulating membrane traffic and protein sorting in the endosomal system. The PX domain of SNXs binds PIs and targets the protein to PI-enriched membranes. SNXs differ from each other in PI-binding specificity and affinity, and the presence of other protein-protein interaction domains, which help determine subcellular localization and specific function in the endocytic pathway. Some SNXs are localized in early endosome structures such as clathrin-coated pits, while others are located in late structures of the endocytic pathway. This subfamily consists of SNX7, SNX30, and similar proteins. They harbor a Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain, which detects membrane curvature, C-terminal to the PX domain, similar to the sorting nexins SNX1-2, SNX4-6, SNX8, and SNX32. Both domains have been shown to determine the specific membrane-targeting of SNX1. The specific function of the sorting nexins in this subfamily has yet to be elucidated.

BAR domain; BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different protein families. A BAR domain with an additional N-terminal amphipathic helix (an N-BAR) can drive membrane curvature. These N-BAR domains are found in amphiphysin, endophilin, BRAP and Nadrin. BAR domains are also frequently found alongside domains that determine lipid specificity, like pfam00169 and pfam00787 domains in beta centaurins and sorting nexins respectively.

Sorting nexins (SNXs) are Phox homology (PX) domain containing proteins that are involved in regulating membrane traffic and protein sorting in the endosomal system. SNXs differ from each other in their lipid-binding specificity, subcellular localization and specific function in the endocytic pathway. A subset of SNXs also contain BAR domains. The PX-BAR structural unit determines the specific membrane targeting of SNXs. This subfamily consists of SNX7, SNX30, and similar proteins. The specific functions of SNX7 and SNX30 have not been elucidated. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions.

It shows a similar domain architecture as SNX1-2, among others, containing a Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain, which detects membrane curvature, C-terminal to the PX domain. SNX4 is implicated in the regulation of plasma membrane receptor trafficking and interacts with receptors for EGF, insulin, platelet-derived growth factor and the long form of the leptin receptor.

The phosphoinositide binding Phox Homology domain of Sorting Nexin 2; The PX domain is a phosphoinositide (PI) binding module present in many proteins with diverse functions. Sorting nexins (SNXs) make up the largest group among PX domain containing proteins. They are involved in regulating membrane traffic and protein sorting in the endosomal system. The PX domain of SNXs binds PIs and targets the protein to PI-enriched membranes. SNXs differ from each other in PI-binding specificity and affinity, and the presence of other protein-protein interaction domains, which help determine subcellular localization and specific function in the endocytic pathway. SNX2 is a component of the retromer complex, a membrane coat multimeric complex required for endosomal retrieval of lysosomal hydrolase receptors to the Golgi. The retromer consists of a cargo-recognition subcomplex and a subcomplex formed by a dimer of sorting nexins (SNX1 and/or SNX2), which ensures efficient cargo sorting by facilitating proper membrane localization of the cargo-recognition subcomplex. Similar to SNX1, SNX2 contains a Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain, which detects membrane curvature, C-terminal to the PX domain. The PX domain of SNX2 preferentially binds phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P), but not PI(3,4,5)P3. Studies on mice deficient with SNX1 and/or SNX2 suggest that they provide an essential function in embryogenesis and are functionally redundant.

The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain of yeast Sorting Nexin Atg24p; BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different proteins with diverse functions. Sorting nexins (SNXs) are Phox homology (PX) domain containing proteins that are involved in regulating membrane traffic and protein sorting in the endosomal system. SNXs differ from each other in their lipid-binding specificity, subcellular localization and specific function in the endocytic pathway. A subset of SNXs also contain BAR domains. The PX-BAR structural unit determines the specific membrane targeting of SNXs. Atg24p is involved in membrane fusion events at the vacuolar surface during pexophagy. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions.

SNX3 is required for the formation of multivesicular bodies, which function as transport intermediates to late endosomes. It also promotes cell surface expression of the amiloride-sensitive epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC), which is critical in sodium homeostasis and maintenance of extracellular fluid volume.

SNXs differ from each other in PI-binding specificity and affinity, and the presence of other protein-protein interaction domains, which help determine subcellular localization and specific function in the endocytic pathway. SNX9, also known as SH3PX1, is a cytosolic protein that interacts with proteins associated with clathrin-coated pits such as Cdc-42-associated tyrosine kinase 2 (ACK2). It contains an N-terminal Src Homology 3 (SH3) domain, a PX domain, and a C-terminal Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain, which detects membrane curvature. The PX-BAR structural unit helps determine specific membrane localization. Through its SH3 domain, SNX9 binds class I polyproline sequences found in dynamin 1/2 and the WASP/N-WASP actin regulators. SNX9 is localized to plasma membrane endocytic sites and acts primarily in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Its array of interacting partners suggests that SNX9 functions at the interface between endocytosis and actin cytoskeletal organization.

These domains are also found in SNX13 and SNX14, which also contain a regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) domain in between the PXA and PX domains. SNX19 interacts with IA-2, a major autoantigen found in type-1 diabetes. It inhibits the conversion of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] to PI(3,4,5)P3, which leads in the decrease of protein phosphorylation in the Akt signaling pathway, resulting in apoptosis. SNX19 may also be implicated in coronary heart disease and thyroid oncocytic tumors.

The phosphoinositide binding Phox Homology domain of Sorting Nexin 15-like proteins; The PX domain is a phosphoinositide (PI) binding module present in many proteins with diverse functions such as cell signaling, vesicular trafficking, protein sorting, and lipid modification, among others. Members of this subfamily have similarity to sorting nexin 15 (SNX15), which contains an N-terminal PX domain and a C-terminal Microtubule Interacting and Trafficking (MIT) domain. SNXs make up the largest group among PX domain containing proteins. They are involved in regulating membrane traffic and protein sorting in the endosomal system. The PX domain of SNXs binds PIs and targets the protein to PI-enriched membranes. SNX15 plays a role in protein trafficking processes in the endocytic pathway and the trans-Golgi network. The PX domain of SNX15 interacts with the PDGF receptor and is responsible for the membrane association of the protein. Other members of this subfamily contain an additional C-terminal kinase domain, similar to human RPK118, which binds sphingosine kinase and the antioxidant peroxiredoxin-3 (PRDX3). RPK118 may be involved in the transport of proteins such as PRDX3 from the cytoplasm to its site of function in the mitochondria.
