'''Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein''' (Vps) are part of '''E'''ndosomal '''S'''orting '''C'''omplex '''R'''equired for '''T'''ransport ('''ESCRT''') that performs the topologically unique membrane bending and scission reaction away from the cytoplasm.  This process is required for the multivesicular body (MVP) pathway, cytokinesis and HIV budding.  There are five distinct ESCRT complexes (0,I,II,III,Vps4) with distinct functions<ref>PMID:22361144</ref>.

Dysfunction of the '''retromer''' is implicated in neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimer disease, Parkinson's disease and Frontotemporal lobar degeneration<ref>PMID:29755290</ref>.
