Sorting nexin 12; snx12

DESCRIPTION

SNX12 belongs to a large family of proteins characterized by the presence of an SNX-type phox (see 608512) homology (PX) domain with conserved arg-arg-tyr-X-asp/glu and pro-pro-X-pro-X-lys motifs. SNX family members are predicted to be involved in the sorting of endosomes (Teasdale et al., 2001).

CLONING

By searching databases for sequences similar to yeast Snx1 (601272), Teasdale et al. (2001) identified human SNX12. The deduced protein has a central 146-amino acid SNX-PH domain, but it lacks C-terminal coiled-coil motifs found in several other SNX family members.

MAPPING

Hartz (2012) mapped the SNX12 gene to chromosome Xq13.1 based on an alignment of the SNX12 sequence (GenBank GENBANK AF171229) with the genomic sequence (GRCh37). ... More on the omim web site
