Also known as HPS9
Summary
BLOC1S6 (biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex 1 subunit 6, HGNC:8549) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 15q21.1, encoding Biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 subunit 6 (Q9UL45). Component of the BLOC-1 complex, a complex that is required for normal biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles (LRO), such as platelet dense granules and melanosomes.
The protein encoded by this gene may play a role in intracellular vesicle trafficking. It interacts with Syntaxin 13 which mediates intracellular membrane fusion. Mutations in this gene cause symptoms associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome-9. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene related to this gene is located on the X chromosome.

Function. Component of the BLOC-1 complex, a complex that is required for normal biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles (LRO), such as platelet dense granules and melanosomes. In concert with the AP-3 complex, the BLOC-1 complex is required to target membrane protein cargos into vesicles assembled at cell bodies for delivery into neurites and nerve terminals. The BLOC-1 complex, in association with SNARE proteins, is also proposed to be involved in neurite extension. May play a role in intracellular vesicle trafficking, particularly in the vesicle-docking and fusion process.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with BLOC1S4 and DTNBP1/BLOC1S7. Homodimer. Component of the biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 (BLOC-1) composed of BLOC1S1, BLOC1S2, BLOC1S3, BLOC1S4, BLOC1S5, BLOC1S6, DTNBP1/BLOC1S7 and SNAPIN/BLOC1S8. Octamer composed of one copy each BLOC1S1, BLOC1S2, BLOC1S3, BLOC1S4, BLOC1S5, BLOC1S6, DTNBP1/BLOC1S7 and SNAPIN/BLOC1S8. The BLOC-1 complex associates with the AP-3 protein complex and membrane protein cargos. Interacts with BLOC1S5, F-actin, SNAP25 isoform 1 and isoform 2, SNAP47 and STX12.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Membrane.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated.
Disease relevance. Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 9 (HPS9) [MIM:614171] A form of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, a genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive disorder characterized by oculocutaneous albinism, bleeding due to platelet storage pool deficiency, and lysosomal storage defects. This syndrome results from defects of diverse cytoplasmic organelles including melanosomes, platelet dense granules and lysosomes. Ceroid storage in the lungs is associated with pulmonary fibrosis, a common cause of premature death in individuals with HPS. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous. May be due to a competing acceptor splice site. May be due to exons 2 and 3 skipping.
Similarity. Belongs to the BLOC1S6 family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 57 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
