Regulator of G-protein signaling 7

UniProtKB accession:  O46470

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  GTPase activator component of the RGS7-GNB5 complex that regulates G protein-coupled receptor signaling cascades. The RGS7-GNB5 complex acts as an inhibitor signal transduction by promoting the GTPase activity of G protein alpha subunits, such as GNAO1, thereby driving them into their inactive GDP-bound form. May play a role in synaptic vesicle exocytosis (By similarity). Glycine-dependent regulation of the RGS7-GNB5 complex by GPR158 affects mood and cognition via its ability to regulate neuronal excitability in L2/L3 pyramidal neurons of the prefrontal cortex (By similarity). Modulates the activity of potassium channels that are activated by GNAO1 in response to muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M2/CHRM2 signaling (By similarity).
