Gene information for GNGT2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2793
Official gene symbolGNGT2
Full nameguanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), gamma transducing activity polypeptide 2
Aliases,G-GAMMA-8,G-GAMMA-C,GNG8,GNG9,GNGT8,
Gene summaryPhototransduction in rod and cone photoreceptors is regulated by groups of signaling proteins. The encoded protein is thought to play a crucial role in cone phototransduction. It belongs to the G protein gamma family and localized specifically in cones. Several transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
