GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
AP3B1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
ADTB3A, HPS2
Description
Adaptor-related protein complex 3, beta 1 subunit (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a protein that may play a role in organelle biogenesis associated with melanosomes, platelet dense granules, and lysosomes. The encoded protein is part of the heterotetrameric AP-3 protein complex which interacts with the scaffolding protein clathrin. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
