nexin

SERPINE2

A gene on chromosome 2q33-q35 that encodes a serine protease inhibitor that acts on thrombin, trypsin and urokinase; it promotes neurite extension by inhibiting thrombin.

This clinically distinguishable recessive syndrome consists of cerebellar atrophy, ataxia, coarsened facial features, and intellectual disability and is due to loss-of-function mutations in the sorting nexin 14 gene.
Translated protein from SNX10 gene has 201 amino acids and belongs to Sorting Nexin (SNX) family that are cytoplasmic and membrane-associated proteins playing various roles in endocytosis and protein trafficking (4).
Adaptor protein sorting nexin 17 regulates amyloid precursor protein trafficking and processing in the early endosomes.
Other ultrastructural defects those lead to ineffective ciliary motility include isolated absence of inner dynein arms or radial spokes, transposition of microtubules to the center of axoneme, missing nexin links etc., [sup][2] The clinical diagnosis of PCD is established in:
Finally, two protease inhibitors (Lipocalin-2/NGAL and Protease Nexin II) showed a peculiar increase in the normoalbuminuric group and a sharp decrease in the macroalbuminuric cohort.
(30) Further to this, splice variants containing the insert sequences corresponding to the Kunitz-type protease inhibitor (KPI) domain have been identified as protease Nexin II, an endogenous inhibitor against a group of serine proteases including thrombin.
Researchers at Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute (Sanford-Burnham) have new evidence that points to a protein called sorting nexin 27, or SNX27.
