Gene: RGS19

Alternate names for this Gene: GAIP|RGSGAIP

Gene Summary: G proteins mediate a number of cellular processes. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the RGS (regulators of G-protein signaling) family and specifically interacts with G protein, GAI3. This protein is a guanosine triphosphatase-activating protein that functions to down-regulate Galpha i/Galpha q-linked signaling. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein isoform have been found for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 20

Location in Chromosome : 20q13.33

Description of this Gene: regulator of G protein signaling 19

Type of Gene: protein-coding
