Most cancer tissues showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining. Gliomas, lymphomas, carcinoids and renal cancers tissues were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
BLOC1S2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
BLOS2, BORCS2, FLJ30135, MGC10120
Description
Biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex-1, subunit 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a protein with multiple functions. The encoded protein has been found in association with the centrosome, shown to co-localize with gamma-tubulin, and also found to be one of the proteins in the BLOC-1 complex which functions in the formation of lysosome-related organelles. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the X chromosome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
