Human Gene AP3B1 (ENST00000255194.11) from GENCODE V44
  Description: Homo sapiens adaptor related protein complex 3 subunit beta 1 (AP3B1), transcript variant 1, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_003664)
RefSeq Summary (NM_003664): This gene encodes a protein that may play a role in organelle biogenesis associated with melanosomes, platelet dense granules, and lysosomes. The encoded protein is part of the heterotetrameric AP-3 protein complex which interacts with the scaffolding protein clathrin. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012].

DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=AP-3 complex subunit beta-1; AltName: Full=Adapter-related protein complex 3 subunit beta-1; AltName: Full=Adaptor protein complex AP-3 subunit beta-1; AltName: Full=Beta-3A-adaptin; AltName: Full=Clathrin assembly protein complex 3 beta-1 large chain;
FUNCTION: Subunit of non-clathrin- and clathrin-associated adaptor protein complex 3 (AP-3) that plays a role in protein sorting in the late-Golgi/trans-Golgi network (TGN) and/or endosomes. The AP complexes mediate both the recruitment of clathrin to membranes and the recognition of sorting signals within the cytosolic tails of transmembrane cargo molecules. AP-3 appears to be involved in the sorting of a subset of transmembrane proteins targeted to lysosomes and lysosome-related organelles. In concert with the BLOC-1 complex, AP-3 is required to target cargos into vesicles assembled at cell bodies for delivery into neurites and nerve terminals.
SUBUNIT: AP-3 associates with the BLOC-1 complex (By similarity). Adaptor protein complex 3 (AP-3) is an heterotetramer composed of two large adaptins (delta-type subunit AP3D1 and beta-type subunit AP3B1 or AP3B2), a medium adaptin (mu-type subunit AP3M1 or AP3M2) and a small adaptin (sigma-type subunit APS1 or AP3S2).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Golgi apparatus. Cytoplasmic vesicle, clathrin-coated vesicle membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side (By similarity). Golgi apparatus (By similarity). Note=Component of the coat surrounding the cytoplasmic face of coated vesicles located at the Golgi complex (By similarity).
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed.
PTM: Phosphorylated on serine residues.
DISEASE: Defects in AP3B1 are the cause of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 2 (HPS2) [MIM:608233]. Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is a genetically heterogeneous, rare, 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. HPS2 differs from the other forms of HPS in that it includes immunodeficiency in its phenotype and patients with HPS2 have an increased susceptibility to infections.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the adaptor complexes large subunit family.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
