GNG5
Description
The GNG5 (G protein subunit gamma 5) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.
The GNG5 gene in humans encodes the protein guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(I)/G(S)/G(O) subunit gamma-5.
G proteins are essential for various transmembrane signaling processes. They act as modulators or transducers in these pathways. The beta and gamma subunits of G proteins play a crucial role in their function. These subunits are responsible for GTPase activity, the exchange of GDP for GTP, and the interaction of G proteins with effector molecules.
GNG5 is also known as -.
