Dear Duarte,

GRCh37 is data freeze since March 2014, and at the time APPRIS data was 
not available.
We keep an archive of GRCh37 data, but since then new data releases 
happen on the newer GRCh38 assembly.

Please email your user support queries to helpdesk at ensembl.org or 
dev at ensembl.org

Best regards,
Tiago
