GNG5B
gene geneOn this page
Summary
GNG5B (G protein subunit gamma 5B, HGNC:24826) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xq23, encoding Guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(I)/G(S)/G(O) subunit gamma-5B (A0A804HLA8). Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems.
Predicted to enable G-protein beta-subunit binding activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of heterotrimeric G-protein complex.
