Endosomal sorting and signalling: an emerging role for sorting nexins
Abstract
The endocytic network comprises a series of interconnected tubulo-vesicular membranous compartments that together regulate various sorting and signalling events. Although it is clear that defects in endocytic function underlie a variety of human diseases, our understanding of the molecular entities that regulate these sorting and signalling events remains limited. Here we discuss the sorting nexins family of proteins and propose that they have a fundamental role in orchestrating the formation of protein complexes that are involved in endosomal sorting and signalling.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
