About GNG2

Cytogenetic location: 14q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:51,826,174-51,969,795 (from NCBI)

This gene has 16 transcripts (splice variants), 188 orthologues and 11 paralogues. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 43.3), spleen (RPKM 22.6) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes one of the gamma subunits of a guanine nucleotide-binding protein. Such proteins are involved in signaling mechanisms across membranes. Various subunits forms heterodimers which then interact with the different signal molecules. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
