{{Infobox_gene}}

Vacuolar protein sorting 37 homolog A (S. cerevisiae) is a protein in humans that is encoded by the VPS37A gene.{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: Vacuolar protein sorting 37 homolog A (S. cerevisiae) | url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=gene&cmd=retrieve&list_uids=137492 | access-date = 2012-04-20 }} It is a member of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) system.{{cite journal | vauthors = Bache KG, Slagsvold T, Cabezas A, Rosendal KR, Raiborg C, Stenmark H | title = The growth-regulatory protein HCRP1/hVps37A is a subunit of mammalian ESCRT-I and mediates receptor down-regulation | journal = Mol.

Clinical significance

A missense mutation (K382N) in VPS37A protein has been shown to cause complex hereditary spastic paraparesis (cHSP).{{cite journal | vauthors = Zivony-Elboum Y, Westbroek W, Kfir N, Savitzki D, Shoval Y, Bloom A, Rod R, Khayat M, Gross B, Samri W, Cohen H, Sonkin V, Freidman T, Geiger D, Fattal-Valevski A, Anikster Y, Waters AM, Kleta R, Falik-Zaccai TC | title = A founder mutation in Vps37A causes autosomal recessive complex hereditary spastic paraparesis | journal = J Med Genet | volume = 49 | issue = 7 | pages = 462–72 | date = June 2012 | pmid = 22717650 | doi = 10.1136/jmedgenet-2012-100742 | s2cid = 30471834 }}
