Gene: SNX14

Alternate names for this Gene: RGS-PX2|SCAR20

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the sorting nexin family. Members of this family have a phox (PX) phosphoinositide binding domain and are involved in intracellular trafficking. The encoded protein also contains a regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) domain. Regulator of G protein signaling family members are regulatory molecules that act as GTPase activating proteins for G alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins. Alternate splicing results in transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 6

Location in Chromosome : 6q14.3

Description of this Gene: sorting nexin 14

Type of Gene: protein-coding
