RGS4 - regulator of G protein signaling 4 Gene
Also Known as RGP4; SCZD9
Species: Homo sapiens
About RGS4
This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 197 orthologues and 23 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 67.5), adrenal (RPKM 15.7) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
Regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) family members are regulatory molecules that act as GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) for G alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins. RGS proteins are able to deactivate G protein subunits of the Gi alpha, Go alpha and Gq alpha subtypes. They drive G proteins into their inactive GDP-bound forms. Regulator of G protein signaling 4 belongs to this family. All RGS proteins share a conserved 120-amino acid sequence termed the RGS domain. Regulator of G protein signaling 4 protein is 37% identical to RGS1 and 97% identical to rat RGS4. This protein negatively regulate signaling upstream or at the level of the heterotrimeric G protein and is localized in the cytoplasm. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
