Summary

GNB4 (G protein subunit beta 4, HGNC:20731) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3q26.33, encoding Guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit beta-4 (Q9HAV0). Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems.

Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins), which integrate signals between receptors and effector proteins, are composed of an alpha, a beta, and a gamma subunit. These subunits are encoded by families of related genes. This gene encodes a beta subunit. Beta subunits are important regulators of alpha subunits, as well as of certain signal transduction receptors and effectors.

Function. Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein-effector interaction.

Subunit / interactions. G proteins are composed of 3 units, alpha, beta and gamma.

Tissue specificity. Strongly expressed in lung and placenta, whereas it is weakly expressed in brain and heart. Abundantly expressed in the axons and Schwann cells of peripheral nerves.

Disease relevance. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, dominant intermediate F (CMTDIF) [MIM:615185] A form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a disorder of the peripheral nervous system, characterized by progressive weakness and atrophy, initially of the peroneal muscles and later of the distal muscles of the arms. CMTDIF is characterized by onset around adolescence of slowly progressive distal muscle atrophy and weakness affecting the upper and lower limbs and resulting in steppage gait. There is distal sensory impairment with decreased reflexes. Nerve conduction velocities are variable, ranging from the demyelinating to the axonal range. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Similarity. Belongs to the WD repeat G protein beta family.
