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. Tissue specificity: Expressed at high levels in brain, spinal cord, heart, skeletal muscle, thyroid, placenta and testis. Expressed at lower levels in lymphoid organs, kidney, colon and liver.

Tissue Specificity：Expressed at high levels in brain, spinalcord, heart, skeletal muscle, thyroid, placenta and testis.Expressed at lower levels in lymphoid organs, kidney, colon andliver.
Post-translational modifications：The N-terminal propeptide is cleaved by furin and possiblyother homologous proteases.
DISEASE：Note=A common polymorphism located in a non-coding regionbetween CELSR2 and PSRC1 alters a CEBP transcription factor bindingsite and is responsible for changes in hepatic expression of SORT1.Altered SORT1 expression in liver affects low density lipoprotei
Similarity：Belongs to the VPS10-related sortilin family. SORT1subfamily.
Contains 9 BNR repeats.
