Gene: GNAQ (guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), q polypeptide) Homo sapiens

Symbol:

GNAQ

Name:

guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), q polypeptide

Description:

This locus encodes a guanine nucleotide-binding protein. The encoded protein, an alpha subunit in the Gq class, couples a seven-transmembrane domain receptor to activation of phospolipase C-beta. Mutations at this locus have been associated with problems in platelet activation and aggregation. A related pseudogene exists on chromosome 2.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

Type:

protein-coding

RefSeq Status:

REVIEWED

Also known as:

G-ALPHA-q; GAQ; guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-q; guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(q) subunit alpha; heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha q subunit; OTTHUMP00000021516
