Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 4A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS4A gene.

Function

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the AAA protein family (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities), and is the homolog of the yeast Vps4 protein. In humans, two paralogs of the yeast protein have been identified. They share a high degree of amino acid sequence similarity with each other, and also with yeast Vps4 and mouse proteins. Functional studies indicate that both human paralogs associate with the endosomal compartments, and are involved in intracellular protein trafficking, similar to Vps4 protein in yeast. The gene encoding this paralog has been mapped to chromosome 16; the gene for the other resides on chromosome 18.

Interactions

VPS4A has been shown to interact with CHMP1A.
