DESCRIPTION

Also known as GBB_SCHPO, git5, gpb1. Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein-effector interaction. Required for adenylate cyclase activation. G proteins are composed of 3 units, alpha, beta and gamma.
