The sorting nexin Snx21 promotes flotillin‐mediated endocytosis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we describe a novel function of the previously uncharacterized Snx21 protein as a specific positive regulator of flotillin‐mediated endocytic trafficking. Snx21 is recruited to endosomal membranes via binding to PI(3)P, and it colocalizes with flotillins on the surface of late endosomes.
