BLOC complexes are important for the formation of endosomal-lysosomal organelles such as melanosomes and platelet dense granules. Mutations in this gene result in subtype 4 of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, a form of albinism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]. COMPLETENESS: complete on the 3' end. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: Component of the BLOC-3 complex, a complex that acts as a guanine exchange factor (GEF) for RAB32 and RAB38, promotes the exchange of GDP to GTP, converting them from an inactive GDP-bound form into an active GTP-bound form. The BLOC-3 complex plays an important role in the control of melanin production and melanosome biogenesis and promotes the membrane localization of RAB32 and RAB38 (PubMed:23084991). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23084991}. <button type='default' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> No Pfam Domain information is available for this gene. </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |positive regulation of eye pigmentation| |platelet dense granule| |BLOC-3 complex| |regulation of eye pigmentation| |melanosome assembly| |positive regulation of developmental pigmentation| |regulation of developmental pigmentation| |melanocyte differentiation| |melanosome organization| |pigment granule organization| |pigment cell differentiation| |positive regulation of protein targeting to mitochondrion| |developmental pigmentation| |regulation of protein targeting to mitochondrion| |cellular pigmentation| |positive regulation of establishment of protein localization to mitochondrion| |lytic vacuole organization| |lysosome organization| |regulation of establishment of protein localization to mitochondrion| |regulation of protein targeting| |pigmentation| |melanosome| |guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity| |positive regulation of mitochondrion organization| |vacuole organization| |Rab GTPase binding| |positive regulation of intracellular protein transport| |protein dimerization activity| |protein stabilization| |regulation of mitochondrion organization| |positive regulation of intracellular transport| |regulation of intracellular protein transport| |lysosome| |regulation of protein stability| |blood coagulation| |coagulation| |hemostasis| |vesicle organization| |positive regulation of cellular protein localization| |regulation of intracellular transport| |protein targeting| |positive regulation of protein transport| |positive regulation of establishment of protein localization| |wound healing| |regulation of body fluid levels| |regulation of cellular protein localization| |response to wounding| |positive regulation of organelle organization| |regulation of protein transport| |regulation of peptide transport| |regulation of establishment of protein localization| |organelle assembly| |protein homodimerization activity| |regulation of cellular localization| |positive regulation of transport| |intracellular protein transport| |regulation of protein localization| |positive regulation of cellular component organization| |regulation of organelle organization| |protein transport| |intracellular transport| |peptide transport| |amide transport| |cellular protein localization| |cellular macromolecule localization| |establishment of protein localization| |establishment of localization in cell| |nitrogen compound transport| |regulation of transport| |membrane| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp459|Bleomycin 5μM R08 exp459]]|-2.22| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 8905 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: 9.86 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='HPS4 Expression in NALM6 Cells: 9.86'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2025/12/10 20:19by 127.0.0.1
