Gna13 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable D5 dopamine receptor binding activity; G protein activity; and G-protein beta/gamma-subunit complex binding activity. Involved in adenylate cyclase-modulating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; regulation of blood pressure; and regulation of postsynapse assembly. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including Rho protein signal transduction; branching involved in blood vessel morphogenesis; and platelet activation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is active in postsynapse. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; genitourinary system; gut gland; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human GNA13 (G protein subunit alpha 13). [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 Gna13 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
