Gpsm2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables G-protein alpha-subunit binding activity and GDP-dissociation inhibitor activity. Acts upstream of or within response to light intensity. Located in lateral cell cortex. Is expressed in several structures, including 2-cell stage conceptus; gonad; lung; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in sensorineural hearing loss. Orthologous to human GPSM2 (G protein signaling modulator 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Gpsm2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
