Abstract
Kinetoplastea are free living and parasitic protists with unique features among Eukaryota. Pathogenic Kinetoplastea parasites (i.e., Trypanosoma and Leishmania spp.) undergo several developmental transitions essential for survival in their hosts. These transitions require membrane and cytoskeleton reorganizations that involve phosphoinositides (PIs). Phospholipids like PIs are key regulators of vital functions in all eukaryotes including signal transduction, protein transport and sorting, membrane trafficking, and cytoskeleton and membrane remodeling. A large repertoire of PI-metabolizing enzymes and PI-binding proteins/effectors carrying distinct PI-binding modules like the PX (phox homology) module could play significant roles in the life and virulence of pathogenic Kinetoplastea. The aim of this study was to retrieve the entire spectrum of Kinetoplastea protein sequences containing the PX module (PX-proteins), predict their structures, and identify in them evolutionary conserved and unique traits. Using a large array of bioinformatics tools, protein IDs from two searches (based on PFam's pHMM for PX domain (PF00787)) were combined, aligned, and utilized for the construction of a new Kinetoplastea_PX pHMM. This three-step search retrieved 170 PX-protein sequences. Structural domain configuration analysis identified PX, Pkinase, Lipocalin_5, and Vps5/BAR3-WASP domains and clustered them into five distinct subfamilies. Phylogenetic tree and domain architecture analysis showed that some domain architectures exist in proteomes of all Kinetoplastea spp., while others are genus-specific. Finally, amino acid conservation logos of the Kinetoplastea spp. and Homo sapiens PX domains revealed high evolutionary conservation in residues forming the critical structural motifs for PtdIns3P recognition. This study highlights the PX-Pkinase domain architecture as unique within Trypanosoma spp. and forms the basis for a targeted functional analysis of Kinetoplastea PX-proteins as putative targets for a rational design of anti-parasitic drugs.

Abstract
Sorting nexins (SNXs) are a family of membrane-binding proteins known to play a critical role in regulating endocytic pathway sorting and endosomal membrane trafficking. Among them, SNX1 and SNX2 are members of the SNX-BAR subfamily and possess a membrane-curvature domain and a phosphoinositide-binding domain, which enables their stabilization at the phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P)-positive surface of endosomes. While their binding to PI3P-positive platforms facilitates interaction with endosomal partners and stabilization at the endosomal membrane, their SNX-BAR region is pivotal for generating membrane tubulation from endosomal compartments. In this context, their primary identified biological roles-and their partnership-are tightly associated with the retromer and endosomal SNX-BAR sorting complex for promoting exit 1 complex trafficking, facilitating the transport of cargoes from early endosomes to the secretory pathway. However, recent literature indicates that these proteins also possess biological functions in other aspects of endosomal features and sorting processes. Notably, SNX2 has been found to regulate endosome-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contact sites through its interaction with VAP proteins at the ER membrane. Furthermore, data from our laboratory show that SNX1 and SNX2 are involved in the tubulation of early endosomes toward ER sites associated with autophagy initiation during starvation. These findings shed light on a novel role of SNXs in inter-organelle tethering and communication. In this concise review, we will explore the non-retromer functions of SNX1 and SNX2, specifically focusing on their involvement in endosomal membrane dynamics during stress sensing and autophagy-associated processes.

Abstract
Previous studies have identified an interaction between the human papillomavirus (HPV) L2 minor capsid protein and sorting nexins 17 and 27 (SNX17 and SNX27) during virus infection. Further studies show the involvement of both retromer and retriever complexes in this process since knockdown of proteins from either complex impairs infection. In this study, we show that HPV L2 and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU)-labeled pseudovirions colocalize with both retromer and retriever, with components of each complex being bound by L2 during infection. We also show that both sorting nexins may interact with either of the recycling complexes but that the interaction between SNX17 and HPV16 L2 is not responsible for retriever recruitment during infection, instead being required for retromer recruitment. Furthermore, we show that retriever recruitment most likely involves a direct interaction between L2 and the C16orf62 subunit of the retriever, in a manner similar to that of its interaction with the VPS35 subunit of retromer.IMPORTANCE Previous studies identified sorting nexins 17 and 27, as well as the retromer complex, as playing a role in HPV infection. This study shows that the newly identified retriever complex also plays an important role and begins to shed light on how both sorting nexins contribute to retromer and retriever recruitment during the infection process.

Abstract
Protein homeostasis is maintained by removing misfolded, damaged, or excess proteins and damaged organelles from the cell by three major pathways; the ubiquitin-proteasome system, the autophagy-lysosomal pathway, and the endo-lysosomal pathway. The requirement for ubiquitin provides a link between all three pathways. Sorting nexins are a highly conserved and diverse family of membrane-associated proteins that not only traffic proteins throughout the cells but also provide a second common thread between protein homeostasis pathways. In this review, we will discuss the connections between sorting nexins, ubiquitin, and the interconnected roles they play in maintaining protein quality control mechanisms. Underlying their importance, genetic defects in sorting nexins are linked with a variety of human diseases including neurodegenerative, cardiovascular diseases, viral infections, and cancer. This serves to emphasize the critical roles sorting nexins play in many aspects of cellular function.

Abstract
Sorting nexins (SNXs) are a diverse group of cytoplasmic- and membrane-associated phosphoinositide-binding proteins containing the PX domain proteins. The function of SNX proteins in regulating intracellular protein trafficking consists of endocytosis, endosomal sorting, and endosomal signaling. Dysfunctions of SNX proteins are demonstrated to be involved in several cancerous/neoplastic diseases. Here, we review the accumulated evidence of the molecular structure and biological function of SNX proteins and discuss the regulatory role of SNX proteins in distinct cancerous/neoplastic diseases. SNX family proteins may be a valuable potential biomarker and therapeutic strategy for diagnostics and treatment of cancerous/neoplastic diseases.

Abstract
Dysregulation of various APP trafficking components in the endosome has been previously implicated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Although single nucleotide polymorphisms within the gene locus encoding the endosomal component, SNX8 have been previously associated with AD, how SNX8 levels are altered and its contribution to AD onset is currently unknown. Here, we observe decreased expression of SNX8 in human AD and AD mouse brain. SNX8 predominantly localized to early and late endosomes, where SNX8 overexpression enhanced total APP levels, cell surface APP distribution and consequent soluble APPα cleavage. SNX8 depletion resulted in elevated β-amyloid (Aβ) levels, while SNX8 overexpression reduced Aβ levels in cells and in an APP/PS1 AD mouse model. Importantly, SNX8 overexpression rescued cognitive impairment in APP/PS1 mice. Together, these results implicate a neuroprotective role for SNX8 in enhancing non-amyloidogenic APP trafficking and processing pathways. Given that endosomal dysfunction is an early event in AD, restoration of dysfunctional endosomal components such as SNX8 may be beneficial in future therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are large multinucleated cells exquisitely adapted to resorb bone matrix. Like other eukaryotes, osteoclasts possess an elaborate ensemble of intracellular organelles through which solutes, proteins and other macromolecules are trafficked to their target destinations via membrane-bound intermediaries. During bone resorption, membrane trafficking must be tightly regulated to sustain the structural and functional polarity of the osteoclasts’ membrane domains. Of these, the ruffled border (RB) is most characteristic, functioning as the osteoclasts' secretory apparatus. This highly convoluted organelle is classically considered to be formed by the targeted fusion of acidic vesicles with the bone-facing plasma membrane. Emerging findings disclose new evidence that the RB is far more complex than previously envisaged, possessing discrete subdomains that are serviced by several intersecting endocytic, secretory, transcytotic and autophagic pathways. Bone-resorbing osteoclasts therefore serve as a unique model system for studying polarized membrane trafficking. Recent advances in high-resolution microscopy together with the convergence of genetic and cell biological studies in humans and in mice have helped illuminate the major membrane trafficking pathways in osteoclasts and unmask the core molecular machinery that governs these distinct vesicle transport routes. Among these, small Rab GTPases, their binding partners and members of the endocytic sorting nexin family have emerged as critical regulators. This mini review summarizes our current understanding of membrane trafficking in osteoclasts, the key molecular participants, and discusses how these transport machinery may be exploited for the development of new therapies for metabolic disorders of bone-like osteoporosis.

Abstract
Endocytic trafficking plays a major role in transport of incoming human papillomavirus (HPVs) from plasma membrane to the trans Golgi network (TGN) and ultimately into the nucleus. During this infectious entry, several cellular sorting factors are recruited by the viral capsid protein L2, which plays a critical role in ensuring successful transport of the L2/viral DNA complex to the nucleus. Later in the infection cycle, two viral oncoproteins, E5 and E6, have also been shown to modulate different aspects of endocytic transport pathways. In this review, we highlight how HPV makes use of and perturbs normal endocytic transport pathways, firstly to achieve infectious virus entry, secondly to produce productive infection and the completion of the viral life cycle and, finally, on rare occasions, to bring about the development of malignancy.

Abstract
The G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling was long believed to involve activation of receptor exclusively at the cell surface, followed by its binding to heterotrimeric G-proteins and arrestins to trigger various intracellular signaling cascades, and termination of signaling by internalization of the receptor. It is now accepted that many GPCRs continue to signal after internalization in the endosomes. Since the breakthrough discoveries of nuclear binding sites for their ligands in 1980s, several GPCRs have been detected at cell nuclei. But mechanisms of nuclear localization of GPCRs, many of whom contain putative nuclear localization signals, remain poorly understood to date. Nevertheless, it is known that subcellular trafficking of GPCRs is regulated by members of Ras superfamily of small GTPases, most notably by Rab and Arf GTPases. In this commentary, we highlight several recent studies which suggest novel roles of small GTPases, importins and sorting nexin proteins in the nuclear translocation of GPCRs via vesicular transport pathways. Taken together with increasing evidence for in vivo functionality of the nuclear GPCRs, better understanding of their trafficking will provide valuable clues in cell biology.

Abstract
Retromer is a multi-protein complex that recycles transmembrane cargo from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network and the plasma membrane. Defects in retromer impair various cellular processes and underlie some forms of Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Although retromer was discovered over 15 years ago, the mechanisms for cargo recognition and recruitment to endosomes have remained elusive. Here, we present an X-ray crystallographic analysis of a four-component complex comprising the VPS26 and VPS35 subunits of retromer, the sorting nexin SNX3, and a recycling signal from the divalent cation transporter DMT1-II. This analysis identifies a binding site for canonical recycling signals at the interface between VPS26 and SNX3. In addition, the structure highlights a network of cooperative interactions among the VPS subunits, SNX3, and cargo that couple signal-recognition to membrane recruitment.
