The interactive graph below shows its immediate neighbors. All content is AI-synthesized from peer-reviewed literature.
The retromer complex is a highly conserved multi-protein assembly that mediates the retrograde transport of transmembrane proteins from endosomes back to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) or the plasma membrane. In the central nervous system, retromer dysfunction has emerged as a convergent pathogenic m
