guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), gamma 2

Symbol

GNG2 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

This gene encodes one of the gamma subunits of a guanine nucleotide-binding protein. Such proteins are involved in signaling mechanisms across membranes. Various subunits forms heterodimers which then interact with the different signal molecules. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
