The retromer complex is a vital component of the endosomal protein sorting machinery necessary for sorting into both the endosome-to-Golgi retrieval pathway and also the endosome-to-cell-surface recycling pathway. Retromer mediates cargo selection through a trimeric complex comprising VPS35, VPS29 and VPS26, which is recruited to endosomes by binding to Rab7a and Snx3. Retromer function is linked to two distinct neurodegenerative diseases, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease and modulati ...[more]
