General annotation (Comments)

Function	Essential component of the retromer complex, a complex required to retrieve lysosomal enzyme receptors (IGF2R and M6PR) from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network. Also required to regulate transcytosis of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR-pIgA). Ref.8 Ref.11
Subunit structure	Component of the retromer complex composed of VPS26 (VPS26A or VPS26B), VPS29, VPS35, SNX1 and SNX2. Interacts directly with VPS35. Found in a complex with XPO7, EIF4A1, ARHGAP1, VPS26A, VPS29, VPS35 and SFN. Interacts with ECM29. Ref.1 Ref.10 Ref.13 Ref.15
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm. Endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein Ref.10 Ref.13 Ref.15.
Induction	Down-regulated in Alzheimer disease. No polymorphism or variant is however associated with Alzheimer disease for VPS26A. Ref.9 Ref.12
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the VPS26 family.
