| Type: | Family | Name: | Sorting nexin 9 subfamily |
| Description: | Proteins in the sorting nexin 9 subfamily includes SNX9, SNX18 and SNX33 []. They are characterised by the presence of an N-terminal SH3 domain (), a PX domain that is a phosphoinositide-binding module (), and a Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain at the C terminus, which allows membrane binding and bending. They are required for progression and completion of mitosis []. This entry also includes the sorting nexin lst-4 from Caenorhabditis elegans. It is involved in the signalling of vulval development by acting as a negative regulator of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling []. | Short Name: | Snx9_subfam |
