Sorting nexin 16(SNX16),a member of the SNX family,contains a phoxhomology domain that is prone to bind with phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate domain and a C-terminal coiled-coil domain. SNX16 participates in diverse cellular processes such as endocytosis,protein sorting,and signal transduction. The dysfunctions of SNX16 are demonstrated to be involved in the occurrence of several diseases.
