Facts about Sorting nexin-2.
The SNX-BAR retromer mediates retrograde transport of cargo proteins from endosomes into the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and is included in endosome-to-plasma membrane transport for freight protein recycling. The SNX-BAR subcomplex works to deform the donor membrane into a tubular profile called endosome-to-TGN transport carrier (ETC) (Probable).

Early endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cell projection, lamellipodium. Colocalized with SORT1 to tubular endosomal membrane structures called endosome-to-TGN transport carriers (ETCs) which are budding from early endosome vacuoles just before maturing into late endosome vacuoles (PubMed:18088323). Colocalized with F-actin at the leading edge of lamellipodia in cells in a KALRN-dependent manner (PubMed:20604901).
