Gene information for OSTM1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID28962
Official gene symbolOSTM1
Full nameosteopetrosis associated transmembrane protein 1
Aliases,GIPN,GL,HSPC019,OPTB5,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that may be involved in the degradation of G proteins via the ubiquitin-dependent proteasome pathway. The encoded protein binds to members of subfamily A of the regulator of the G-protein signaling (RGS) family through an N-terminal leucine-rich region. This protein also has a central RING finger-like domain and E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. This protein is highly conserved from flies to humans. Defects in this gene may cause the autosomal recessive, infantile malignant form of osteopetrosis. [provided by RefSeq]
