A protein complex required for the biogenesis of specialized organelles of the endosomal-lysosomal system, such as melanosomes and platelet dense granules. Many of the protein subunits are conserved between mouse and human; the mouse complex contains the Pallidin, Muted, Cappuccino, Dysbindin, Snapin, BLOS1, BLOS2, AND BLOS3 proteins. [PMID:15102850]
The Biogenesis of Lysosome-related Organelles Complex 1 (BLOC-1) is a multi-protein complex that plays a crucial role in the biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles (LROs). These organelles are specialized compartments within cells that perform a variety of functions, including the degradation of cellular waste, the storage and release of signaling molecules, and the defense against pathogens. BLOC-1 is essential for the proper formation and function of LROs, and mutations in BLOC-1 genes can lead to a variety of human diseases, including Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) and Chediak-Higashi syndrome.
BLOC-1 is a large complex that is composed of eight subunits: BLOS1, BLOS2, BLOS3, BLOS4, BLOS5, BLOS6, BLOS7, and BLOS8. These subunits are arranged into three distinct modules: the BLOS1-BLOS2-BLOS3 module, the BLOS4-BLOS5 module, and the BLOS6-BLOS7-BLOS8 module.
The BLOS1-BLOS2-BLOS3 module is responsible for binding to the transmembrane protein AP-3, which is a key component of the machinery that sorts proteins to LROs. The BLOS4-BLOS5 module is thought to play a role in recruiting other proteins to the complex. The BLOS6-BLOS7-BLOS8 module is responsible for interacting with the Rab GTPase Rab32, which is a small GTP-binding protein that regulates the trafficking of LROs.
