Bloc1s5 - biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex 1 subunit 5

Predicted to be involved in several processes, including endosome to melanosome transport; establishment of vesicle localization; and positive regulation of pigment cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within developmental pigmentation; otolith morphogenesis; and vesicle-mediated transport. Predicted to be located in transport vesicle. Predicted to be part of BLOC-1 complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome. Orthologous to human BLOC1S5 (biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex 1 subunit 5).
