Function
- G-beta & G-gamma chains are required for
- GTPase activity of heterotrimeric G proteins
- replacement of GDP by GTP

- belongs to the WD repeat G protein beta family
- contains 7 WD repeats
Expression
- found in brain & lung[1]
- nearly ubiquitously expressed [2]
- strongly expressed in lung & placenta[3]
- weakly expressed in brain & heart[3]
