guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), gamma 5B; GTP-binding regulatory protein gamma-5B (GNG5B, GNG5P2)

Function

• guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems
• the beta & gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, & for G protein-effector interaction G proteins are composed of 3 units; alpha, beta & gamma

Structure

• belongs to the G protein gamma family,

Compartment

• cell membrane
• lipid-anchor ; cytoplasmic side

More general terms

• guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), gamma subunit
