Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 90203
Gene name Sorting nexin family member 21
Gene symbol SNX21
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
C20orf161PP3993SNX-LSNXLdJ337O18.4
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20q13.12
Summary This gene encodes a member of the sorting nexin family. Members of this family contain a phox (PX) domain, which is a phosphoinositide binding domain, and are involved in intracellular trafficking. This protein does not contain a coiled coil region, like
