Sorting nexin-4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SNX4 gene.[1][2]

This gene encodes a member of the sorting nexin family. Members of this family contain a phox (PX) domain, which is a phosphoinositide binding domain, and are involved in intracellular trafficking. This protein associated with the long isoform of the leptin receptor and with receptor tyrosine kinases for platelet-derived growth factor, insulin, and epidermal growth factor in cell cultures, but its function is unknown. This protein may form oligomeric complexes with family members.[2]

Interactions

SNX4 has been shown to interact with BIN1.[3]
