Protein Muted homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MUTED gene.This gene encodes a component of BLOC-1 (biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1). Components of this complex are involved in the biogenesis of organelles such as melanosomes and platelet-dense granules. A mouse model for Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome is mutated in the murine version of this gene.
