RGS8 - regulator of G protein signaling 8 Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About RGS8
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues and 23 paralogues. Biased expression in thyroid (RPKM 1.7), brain (RPKM 1.0) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
This gene is a member of the regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) family and encodes a protein with a single RGS domain. Regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins are regulatory and structural components of G protein-coupled receptor complexes. They accelerate transit through the cycle of GTP binding and hydrolysis to GDP, thereby terminating signal transduction, but paradoxically, also accelerate receptor-stimulated activation.
