Protein name BLOC-3 complex member HPS4 (Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 4 protein) (Light-ear protein homolog)
Protein function Component of the BLOC-3 complex, a complex that acts as a guanine exchange factor (GEF) for RAB32 and RAB38, promotes the exchange of GDP to GTP, converting them from an inactive GDP-bound form into an active GTP-bound form. The BLOC-3 complex p
