Background
Endofin (also known as ZFYVE16) is an endosomal FYVE domian protein implicated in regulating membrane trafficking. Endofin has been shown to localize to early endosomes. It co-localizes with SARA but does not associate with it or Smad2 and does not behave like SARA in affecting TGF-signaling. Northern blot analysis showed ZFYVE16 was widely expressed with high levels in kidney, placenta and lung. Overexpression of Endofin causes endosome aggregation. The gene of ZFYVE16 maps to chromosome 5q14, and encodes a 1539-amino acid protein with a molecular mass of 169 kDa. In addition, endogenous Endofin can also be detected as a band of 230-250 kDa.
