description: VPS37B is a VPS37-family ESCRT-I subunit that complexes with TSG101, VPS28, and MVB12/UBAP-family
  subunits. It supports ESCRT-I-dependent endosomal sorting of ubiquitinated cargo into multivesicular bodies 
  and contributes to ESCRT-I membrane-remodeling contexts. Current local evidence does not support 
  transferring the VPS37A-specific phagophore-closure role to VPS37B as a core annotation.

core_functions:
- description: VPS37B is a structural ESCRT-I subunit that helps organize the TSG101-VPS28-VPS37-MVB12/UBAP 
    complex for ubiquitin-dependent endosomal cargo sorting, MVB assembly, and ESCRT-I-linked reverse-topology
    membrane remodeling.

suggested_questions:
- question: Should VPS37B macroautophagy annotations be retired or kept non-core given that the direct 
    phagophore-closure evidence is VPS37A-specific?
  experts:
  - GO autophagy editors
  - GO ESCRT curators
- question: Should generic VPS37B protein-binding annotations be replaced by ESCRT-I complex membership and 
    specific endosomal sorting terms?
  experts:
  - GO molecular function editors
  - UniProt curators
suggested_experiments:
- experiment_type: VPS37 paralog phagophore closure comparison
  hypothesis: VPS37A, but not VPS37B, is the VPS37 paralog specialized for phagophore closure because VPS37B 
    lacks the VPS37A PUEV-dependent targeting function.
  description: Compare VPS37A, VPS37B, and VPS37C depletion/rescue in HT-LC3 autophagosome closure assays and 
    parallel EGFR MVB-sorting assays, using endogenous expression or matched rescue levels.
