This gene encodes a protein with multiple functions. The encoded protein has been found in association with the centrosome, shown to co-localize with gamma-tubulin, and also found to be one of the proteins in the BLOC-1 complex which functions in the formation of lysosome-related organelles. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the X chromosome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.,BLOC1S2,BLOS2,BORCS2,CEAP,CEAP11,Epigenetics & Nuclear Signaling,Transcription Factors,Signal Transduction,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Cell Cycle,Centrosome,Cytoskeleton,Microtubules,BLOC1S2
