guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), alpha inhibiting activity polypeptide 2

Symbol

GNAI2 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

The protein encoded by this gene is an alpha subunit of guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G proteins). The encoded protein contains the guanine nucleotide binding site and is involved in the hormonal regulation of adenylate cyclase. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been detected for this gene, but the full-length nature of only two are known so far. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
