Gene information for RGS16 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6004
Official gene symbolRGS16
Full nameregulator of G-protein signaling 16
Aliases,A28-RGS14,A28-RGS14P,RGS-R,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the 'regulator of G protein signaling' family. It inhibits signal transduction by increasing the GTPase activity of G protein alpha subunits. It also may play a role in regulating the kinetics of signaling in the phototransduction cascade. [provided by RefSeq]
