Sorting Nexin 27 (SNX27) is a brain-enriched endosome-associated cargo adaptor that shapes excitatory control, being relevant for cognitive and reward processing, and for several neurological conditions. Despite this, SNX27's role in the nervous system remains poorly explored. To further understand SNX27 function, we performed an extensive behavioral characterization comprising motor, cognitive and emotional dimensions of SNX27+/- mice. Furthermore, attending on the recently described association between SNX27 function and cellular stress signaling mechanisms in vitro , we explored SNX27-stress interplay using a Caenorhabditis elegans Δsnx-27 mutant and wild-type (WT) rodents after stress exposure...
