About RIC8A

Cytogenetic location: 11p15.5 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:207,708-215,113 (from NCBI)

This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 187 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 20.2), brain (RPKM 15.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable G-protein alpha-subunit binding activity; GTPase activator activity; and guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including basement membrane organization; gastrulation; and visual learning. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
