Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 3 protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HPS3 gene.This gene encodes a protein containing a potential clathrin-binding motif consensus dileucine signals and tyrosine-based sorting signals for targeting to vesicles of lysosomal lineage. The encoded protein may play a role in organelle biogenesis associated with melanosomes platelet dense granules and lysosomes. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 3.
