Genetic evidence for a mammalian retromer complex containing sorting nexins 1 and 2 [PDF]
We have previously shown that the putative mammalian retromer components sorting nexins 1 and 2 ( Snx1 and Snx2 ) result in embryonic lethality when simultaneously targeted for deletion in mice, whereas others have shown that Hβ58 (also known as mVps26

Amyloid Beta in Alzheimer's Disease: Mechanisms, Biomarker Potential, and Therapeutic Targets
The limited clinical efficacy of anti‐Aβ antibodies has challenged the Aβ hypothesis, compelling the integration of key mechanisms—including neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and post‐translational modifications of Aβ—into a revised model of Alzheimer's disease.

Structure of Vps26B and Mapping of its Interaction with the Retromer Protein Complex [PDF]
Retromer is a heteromeric protein complex with important roles in endosomal membrane trafficking, most notably in the retrograde transport of lysosomal hydrolase receptors from endosomes to the Golgi. The core of retromer is composed of three subunits vacuolar protein sorting (Vps)35, Vps26 and Vps29, and in mammals, there are two paralogues of the ...

Sorting Out the Role of α-Synuclein in Retromer-Mediated Endosomal Protein Sorting
Retromer is a phylogenetically conserved, multisubunit coat complex that controls endosomal protein trafficking and sorting. Mutations in the retromer gene VPS35 cause late-onset Parkinson disease, suggesting that trafficking defects cause ...

From Yeast to Therapeutics: Modeling Neurodegenerative Diseases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Yeast plasmids expressing human Aβ‐42, α‐syn, htt, and TDP‐43. Their fate includes an equilibrium between the endocytic pathway and aggregates that potentially disrupt endocytosis, vesicular transport, vacuolar autophagy, and mitochondrial activity. ABSTRACT Here, we review the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a powerful model organism for studying ...

Exosome Tethering Requires Tetherin Homodimerisation
Rather than being released from cells, exosomes can be retained at the plasma membrane via the protein tetherin. Here, we demonstrate that exosome tethering requires the formation of tetherin homodimers, and that mutations in tetherin that impair homodimer formation impair exosome tethering.

Background Retrograde transport of several transmembrane proteins from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) occurs via Rab 5-containing endosomes, mediated by clathrin and the recently characterized retromer complex.
