Recently, a 6-year-old male has been identified as BLOC-1-deficient (due to a mutation in the dysbindin-encoding gene) and presenting with the symptoms of HPS as well as with motor and language developmental delays (Bryan et al., 2017), and a 52-year-old female has been described as deficient in the same complex (due to a mutation in the pallidin-encoding gene) and presenting with HPS together with schizophrenia (Okamura et al., 2018). This evidence concerns the gene BLOC1S6 and Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome.
