Summary
SNX3 (sorting nexin 3, HGNC:11174) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6q21, encoding Sorting nexin-3 (O60493). Phosphoinositide-binding protein required for multivesicular body formation.
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 does not contain a coiled coil region, like most family members. This protein interacts with phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate, and is involved in protein trafficking. A pseudogene of this gene is present on the sex chromosomes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

- Sorting nexin 3 (SNX3) is disrupted in a patient with a translocation t(6;13)(q21;q12) and microcephaly, microphthalmia, ectrodactyly, prognathism (MMEP) phenotype (PMID:12471201)
- we cannot exclude the possibility that deletions at SNX3 may underlie MMEP, given that sequencing is unable to distinguish between homozygosity across loci versus large deletions (PMID:17655765)
- Data show that Hrs is essential for lysosomal targeting but not multivesicular body biogenesis and transport to late endosomes, while SNX3 is required for multivesicular body formation, but not for EGF receptor degradation. (PMID:18767904)
- SNX3 plays a significant role in regulating the maturation of Salmonella containing vacuoles. (PMID:20482551)
- SNX3 and SNX5 play essential roles in the aspirin-mediated accumulation of endocytosed-TfnR at the early/sorting endosome (PMID:22159558)
- This study found that four significant SNX3 SNPs in the discovery sample were replicated in a community-based sample of Israeli-Arabs (PMID:22673115)
- SNX3 negatively regulates phagocytosis in DC possibly by modulating recruitment of essential PI3P lipid-binding proteins of the phagocytic pathways, such as EEA1, to phagosomal membranes. (PMID:23237080)
- Data show that over-expression of sorting nexin 3 (hSNX3) alters the morphology of colon cancer SW620 cells, but hardly affects cell migration. (PMID:26271979)
- X-ray crystallographic analysis of a 4-component complex comprising the VPS26 & VPS35 subunits of retromer, sorting nexin SNX3, & recycling signal from the divalent cation transporter DMT1-II; analysis identifies a binding site for canonical recycling signals at the interface between VPS26 & SNX3; shows cooperative interactions among the VPS subunits, SNX3 & cargo that couple signal-recognition to membrane recruitment.

- SNX3-retromer complex regulates the surface expression and function of PC1 and PC2 (PMID:28620080)

- sorting nexin SNX3 is transported with Rab5a vesicles and that its PX domain enables vesicle-phagosome contact by binding to PI(3)P in the phagosomal coat. Moreover, the C-terminal region of SNX3 recruits galectin-9, a lectin implicated in protein and membrane recycling, which we identify as a further regulator of phagosome compaction. (PMID:31337623)

Function. Phosphoinositide-binding protein required for multivesicular body formation. Specifically binds phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(P3)). Can also bind phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(P4)), phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate (PtdIns(P5)) and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-biphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P2). Plays a role in protein transport between cellular compartments. Together with RAB7A facilitates endosome membrane association of the retromer cargo-selective subcomplex (CSC/VPS). May in part act as component of the SNX3-retromer complex which mediates the retrograde endosome-to-TGN transport of WLS distinct from the SNX-BAR retromer pathway. Promotes stability and cell surface expression of epithelial sodium channel (ENAC) subunits SCNN1A and SCNN1G. Not involved in EGFR degradation. Involved in the regulation of phagocytosis in dendritic cells possibly by regulating EEA1 recruitment to the nascent phagosomes. Involved in iron homeostasis through regulation of endocytic recycling of the transferrin receptor TFRC presumably by delivering the transferrin:transferrin receptor complex to recycling endosomes; the function may involve the CSC retromer subcomplex. Involved in regulation of neurite outgrowth in primary neurons. Required for trafficking of WLS to the early endosome for recycling which promotes both canonical and non-canonical WNT signaling and is essential for neural tube closure. (Microbial infection) In the case of Salmonella enterica infection, plays a role in maturation of the Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV) and promotes recruitment of LAMP1 to SCVs.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with VPS26A, VPS29 and VPS35; the interaction with VPS35 is direct. The association with the retromer CSC subcomplex subunits is proposed to represent a functional distinct retromer variant described as SNX3-retromer complex. Interacts with USP10 and SCNN1A. Interacts with TRFC. Interacts with SNX8; 2 molecules of SNX8 seems to associate with one molecule of SNX3. Interacts with PTPRU. Interacts with MON2 and DOP1B.
Subcellular location. Early endosome. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Phagosome.
Post-translational modifications. Ubiquitinated, leading to its proteasomal degradation. Deubiquitinated by USP10.
Disease relevance. A chromosomal aberration involving SNX3 has been found in patients with syndromic microphthalmia. Translocation t(6;13)(q21;q12).
Domain organisation. The PX domain mediates specific binding to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(P3)).
Similarity. Belongs to the sorting nexin family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 157 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
