General annotation (Comments)

Function	Functions as a sorting receptor in the Golgi compartment and as a clearance receptor on the cell surface. Required for protein transport from the Golgi apparatus to the lysosomes by a pathway that is independent of the mannose-6-phosphate receptor (M6PR). Also required for protein transport from the Golgi apparatus to the endosomes. Promotes neuronal apoptosis by mediating endocytosis of the proapoptotic precursor forms of BDNF (proBDNF) and NGFB (proNGFB). Also acts as a receptor for neurotensin. May promote mineralization of the extracellular matrix during osteogenic differentiation by scavenging extracellular LPL. Probably required in adipocytes for the formation of specialized storage vesicles containing the glucose transporter SLC2A4/GLUT4 (GLUT4 storage vesicles, or GSVs). These vesicles provide a stable pool of SLC2A4 and confer increased responsiveness to insulin. May also mediate transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi. Ref.4
Subunit structure	Interacts with the cytosolic adapter proteins GGA1 and GGA2. Interacts with numerous ligands including the receptor-associated protein LRPAP1/RAP and GM2A, LPL, NTS, PSAP and SLC2A4. Forms a complex with NGFR which binds specifically to the precursor form of NGFB (proNGFB). Interacts with the Trk receptors NTRK1, NTRK2 and NTRK3; may regulate their anterograde axonal transport and signaling. Interacts with NRADD and NGFR. Interaction with NRADD protects against degradation in the lysosome By similarity. Interacts with the precursor form of BDNF (proBDNF). Ref.6
Subcellular location	Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential. Endosome membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential. Golgi apparatus › Golgi stack membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential. Lysosome membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential. Nucleus membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential. Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein; Extracellular side. Lysosome membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential. Note: Localized to membranes of the endosomes, Golgi stack, lysosomes and nucleus. Interaction with NRADD promotes localization at the cell membrane in neurons; this promotes interaction with NGFR. Localization to the plasma membrane in adipocytes is enhanced by insulin By similarity. Localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane. Also found in SLC2A4/GLUT4 storage vesicles (GSVs) in adipocytes. Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.5
Tissue specificity	Highly expressed in fat, brain, and lung. Expressed in neuronal bodies and dendrites of the piriform cortex and hippocampus. Also expressed in the islands of Calleja, medial and lateral septal nuclei, amygdaloid nuclei, thalamic nuclei, the supraoptic nucleus, the substantia nigra, the Purkinje layer of the cerebellar cortex and the cranial motor nerve nuclei of the brainstem. Ref.3 Ref.5
Domain	The N-terminal propeptide may facilitate precursor transport within the Golgi stack. Intrachain binding of the N-terminal propeptide and the extracellular domain may also inhibit premature ligand binding By similarity. The extracellular domain may be shed following protease cleavage in some cell types By similarity.
Post-translational modification	The N-terminal propeptide is cleaved by furin and possibly other homologous proteases By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the VPS10-related sortilin family. SORT1 subfamily. Contains 9 BNR repeats.
