BLOC1S2 Protein, Human, Recombinant (GST)

Description: BLOC1S2, also known as BLOS2, belongs to the BLOC1S2 family. It is a component of BLOC-1 complex. The BLOC-1 complex is composed of BLOC1S1, BLOC1S2, BLOC1S3, DTNBP1, MUTED, PLDN, CNO/cappuccino and SNAPIN. The BLOC-1 complex is required for normal biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles, such as platelet dense granules and melanosomes. BLOC1S2 interacts directly with BLOC1S1, BLOC1S3, MUTED, CNO/cappuccino and SNAPIN. It may play a role in cell proliferation. It also plays a role in intracellular vesicle trafficking. Functionally, BLOC1S2 gene has been proposed to participate in processes (melanosome organization, microtubule nucleation, platelet dense granule organization, positive regulation of cell proliferation, positive regulation of transcription, regulation of apoptosis, positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter).
