Protein Domain : Sorting nexin Vps5, BAR domain

Primary Identifier  IPR035803 Type  Domain
Short Name  BAR_Vps5
description  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 [].Vsp5 is the yeast counterpart of human SNX1 and is part of the retromer complex, which functions in the endosome-to-Golgi retrieval of vacuolar protein sorting receptor Vps10, as well as other later-Golgi proteins [, , ].
