Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 35 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS35 gene.[1][2]

This gene belongs to a group of vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) genes. The encoded protein is a component of a large multimeric complex, termed the retromer complex, involved in retrograde transport of proteins from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network. The close structural similarity between the yeast and human proteins that make up this complex suggests a similarity in function. Expression studies in yeast and mammalian cells indicate that this protein interacts directly with VPS35, which serves as the core of the retromer complex.[2]

Structure

Vps35 is the largest subunit of retromer with the molecular weight of 92-kDa and functions as the central platform for the assembly of Vps26 and Vps29.[3] Vps35 resembles many other helical solenoid proteins including AP adaptor protein complexes that are characterized with repeated structural units in a continuous superhelix arrangement involved in coated vesicle trafficking. The curved surface of the 6 even-numbered helices within solenoid structure with series of ridges separating hydrophobic grooves function as potential cargo binding sites.[4] The C-terminal of Vps35 contains an α-solenoid fold that fits into the metal binding pocket of Vps29.[5]

A conserved PRLYL motif at the N-terminus of Vps35 is involved in the binding of Vps26.[6][7] The structural binding motifs enable this subunit to act as a linker between the SNX dimers and Vps trimer complex, and the binding sites targeting to the N-terminal region of SNX subunits are located at the both ends of the trimer. A study have shown that the knockdown of Vps35 in human HEp-2 epithelial cells had defect on the endosomal recycling of transferrin by DMT1 due to the mis-sorting of DMT1-II to the lysosomal membrane associated protein (LAMP2) structures.[8]
