Wnts are secreted through association to the sorting receptor Wntless, which promotes transport of Wnt from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the plasma membrane. Harterink et al (2011) and Silhankova et al (2010) have investigated the intracellular recycling of the Wnt-sorting receptor and identified a novel retromer-dependent traffic route from early endosomes to the TGN that is dependent on the sorting nexin SNX3 and is regulated by PI3P levels on early endosomes.
