BLOC-1 subunit 3
Appearance
(Redirected from BLOS3)
BLOC-1 subunit 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BLOC1S3 gene.[5][6] This protein is a component of BLOC-1 (Biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex), which is involved in the biogenesis of certain organelles like melanosomes and dense granules in platelets.[6] Also called HPS8, mutations in the gene BLOC1S3 are associated with type 8 Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome.[6]
