SORCS2
This gene encodes one family member of vacuolar protein sorting 10 (VPS10) domain-containing receptor proteins. The VPS10 domain name comes from the yeast carboxypeptidase Y sorting receptor Vps10 protein. Members of this gene family are large with many exons but the CDS lengths are usually less than 3700 nt. Very large introns typically separate the exons encoding the VPS10 domain; the remaining exons are separated by much smaller-sized introns. These genes are strongly expressed in the central nervous system. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Interaction
Homodimer (in vitro) (By similarity). Heterodimer with NGFR. The extracellular domains of the heterodimer bind the precursor form of NGF (proNGF) (PubMed:22155786, PubMed:24908487). Has much higher affinity for proNGF than for mature NGF (PubMed:24908487). Can also bind mature NGF and BDNF (By similarity). Each chain in the receptor dimer interacts (via extracellular domain) with an NGF dimer (in vitro) (By similarity). Interacts with the precursor forms of BDNF (proBDNF) and NTF3 (proNT3) (PubMed:24908487). The cytoplasmic region of the heterodimer formed by NGFR and SORCS2 binds TRIO. ProNGF binding mediates dissociation of TRIO from the receptor complex (PubMed:22155786). Interacts with SLC1A1. Interacts with VPS35. Interacts (via extracellular domain) with NTRK2 (via extracellular domain). Interacts with VPS35. Interacts (via extracellular domain) with GRIN2A (By similarity).
