About RGS16

Cytogenetic location: 1q25.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:182,598,623-182,604,389 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 179 orthologues and 23 paralogues. Biased expression in thyroid (RPKM 20.2), lung (RPKM 3.6) and 11 other tissues.

Summary

The 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, Jul 2008]
