Gene:
sorting nexin 3
Gene ID:
195339
Symbol:
SNX3
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene encodes a member of the sorting nexin family. Members of this family contain a phox (PX) domain, which is a phosphoinositide binding domain, and are involved in intracellular trafficking. This protein does not contain a coiled coil region, like most family members. This protein interacts with phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate, and is involved in protein trafficking. This gene results in three transcript variants encoding three distinct isoforms.
