Gene information for GNG13 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51764
Official gene symbolGNG13
Full nameguanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), gamma 13
Aliases,G(gamma)13,h2-35,
Gene summaryHeterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of alpha (see MIM 139320), beta (see MIM 139380), and gamma subunits, function as signal transducers for the 7-transmembrane-helix G protein-coupled receptors. GNG13 is a gamma subunit that is expressed in taste, retinal, and neuronal tissues and plays a key role in taste transduction (Li et al., 2006 [PubMed 16473877]).[supplied by OMIM]
