Gene information for HPS3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID84343
Official gene symbolHPS3
Full nameHermansky-Pudlak syndrome 3
Aliases,DKFZp686F0413,FLJ22704,SUTAL,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein containing a potential clathrin-binding motif, consensus dileucine signals, and tyrosine-based sorting signals for targeting to vesicles of lysosomal lineage. The encoded protein may play a role in organelle biogenesis associated with melanosomes, platelet dense granules, and lysosomes. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 3. Alternate splice variants exist, but their full length sequence has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq]
