Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 18 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS18 gene. [5] [6] [7]
Vesicle mediated protein sorting plays an important role in segregation of intracellular molecules into distinct organelles. Genetic studies in yeast have identified more than 40 vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) genes involved in vesicle transport to vacuoles. This gene encodes the human homolog of yeast class C Vps18 protein. The mammalian class C Vps proteins are predominantly associated with late endosomes/lysosomes, and like their yeast counterparts, may mediate vesicle trafficking steps in the endosome/lysosome pathway.

VPS18 has been shown to interact with VPS11 [8] and STX7. [8]
Syntaxin-7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the STX7 gene.
Syntaxin-6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the STX6 gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 4A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS4A gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 4B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS4B gene.
Syntaxin-8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the STX8 gene. Syntaxin 8 directly interacts with HECTd3 and has similar subcellular localization. The protein has been shown to form the SNARE complex with syntaxin 7, vti1b and endobrevin. These function as the machinery for the homotypic fusion of late endosomes.
Syntaxin-binding protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the STXBP3 gene.
Protein SEC13 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SEC13 gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 28 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS28 gene.
VPS29 is a human gene coding for the vacuolar protein sorting protein Vps29, a component of the retromer complex.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 45 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS45 gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 33B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS33B gene.
Vacuolar protein-sorting-associated protein 36 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS36 gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 11 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS11 gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 52 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS52 gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 33A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS33A gene.
Vacuolar protein-sorting-associated protein 25 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS25 gene.
Syntaxin-binding protein 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the STXBP5 gene. It is also known as tomosyn, after 友, "friend" in Japanese, for its role as a binding protein.
Vesicle transport through interaction with t-SNAREs homolog 1A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VTI1A gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting 26 homolog B is a protein in humans that is encoded by the VPS26B gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting 53 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS53 gene.
