Gene information for BLOC1S4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID55330
Official gene symbolBLOC1S4
Full namecappuccino homolog (mouse)
Aliases,BCAS4L,BLOS4,CNO,
Gene summaryThis intronless gene encodes a protein that may play a role in organelle biogenesis associated with melanosomes, platelet dense granules, and lysosomes. A similar protein in mouse is a component of a protein complex termed biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 (BLOC-1), and is a model for Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome. The encoded protein may play a role in intracellular vesicular trafficking. [provided by RefSeq]
