Gng7 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable G-protein beta-subunit binding activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and regulation of adenylate cyclase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within behavioral fear response; locomotory behavior; and receptor guanylyl cyclase signaling pathway. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; parallel fiber to Purkinje cell synapse; and synaptic vesicle membrane. Orthologous to human GNG7 (G protein subunit gamma 7).

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 rat Gng7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
