Gene: RGS7BP

Alternate names for this Gene: R7BP

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein that binds to all members of the R7 subfamily of regulators of G protein signaling and regulates their translocation between the nucleus and the plasma membrane. The encoded protein could be regulated by reversible palmitoylation, which anchors it to the plasma membrane. Depalmitoylation localizes the protein to the nucleus. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with risk of aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 5

Location in Chromosome : 5q12.3

Description of this Gene: regulator of G protein signaling 7 binding protein

Type of Gene: protein-coding
