Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Inhibits signal transduction by increasing the GTPase activity of G protein alpha subunits thereby driving them into their inactive GDP-bound form. Binds to G(t)-alpha. Involved in phototransduction; key element in the recovery phase of visual transduction (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Isoform 3: Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note=Isoform 3 is targeted to the membrane via its interaction with RGS9BP. {ECO:0000250}.

Disease Associations

Prolonged electroretinal response suppression (PERRS) [MIM:608415]: Characterized by difficulty adjusting to sudden changes in luminance levels mediated by cones. {ECO:0000269PubMed:14702087}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Tissue Specificity

Highly expressed in the caudate and putamen, lower levels found in the hypothalamus and nucleus accumbens and very low levels in cerebellum. Not expressed in globus pallidus or cingulate cortex. Isoform 2 is expressed predominantly in pineal gland and retina. Isoform 3 is expressed in retina (abundant in photoreceptors).
