Journal ArticleDOI

Retrograde transport from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network.

TL;DR: A central role for a 'tubular endosomal network' in sorting to recycling pathways that lead not only to the trans-Golgi network but also to different plasma-membrane domains and to specialized storage vesicles is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional architecture of the retromer cargo-recognition complex.

TL;DR: In this article, the crystal structure of a VPS29-VPS35 subcomplex was reported, showing how the metallophosphoesterase-fold subunit VPS 29 acts as a scaffold for the carboxy-terminal half of VPS35.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interchangeable but Essential Functions of SNX1 and SNX2 in the Association of Retromer with Endosomes and the Trafficking of Mannose 6-Phosphate Receptors

TL;DR: Biochemical and functional analyses of endogenous retromers in the human cell line HeLa indicate that the mammalian retromer complex assembles by sequential association of SNX1/2 and Vps26-Vps29-VPS35 subcomplexes on endosomal membranes and thatSNX1 and SNX2 play interchangeable but essential roles inretromer structure and function.
Journal ArticleDOI

The retromer subunit Vps26 has an arrestin fold and binds Vps35 through its C-terminal domain

TL;DR: The mammalian retromer complex consists of SNX1, SNX2, VPS26, Vps29 and Vps35, and retrieves lysosomal enzyme receptors from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network and for the function of yeast Vps26 in carboxypeptidase Y sorting.
