Hps5 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Acts upstream of or within blood coagulation and pigmentation. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be part of BLOC-2 complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Used to study Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 5 and platelet storage pool deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome and Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 5. Orthologous to human HPS5 (HPS5 biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex 2 subunit 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Hps5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
