Go to external page http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCIT_C18166


RGS family proteins activate GTPase and regulate G protein signaling by stimulating the inactivation of heterotrimeric G proteins. RGS family proteins are responsible for the rapid turnoff of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathways. There are indications that a subset of RGS proteins regulate specific G protein-coupled receptor pathways. [ ]
