Regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) domain superfamily; The RGS domain is an essential part of the Regulator of G-protein Signaling (RGS) protein family, a diverse group of multifunctional proteins that regulate cellular signaling events downstream of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). RGS proteins play critical regulatory roles as GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) of the heterotrimeric G-protein G-alpha-subunits. While inactive, G-alpha-subunits bind GDP, which is released and replaced by GTP upon agonist activation. GTP binding leads to dissociation of the alpha-subunit and the beta-gamma-dimer, allowing them to interact with effectors molecules and propagate signaling cascades associated with cellular growth, survival, migration, and invasion. Deactivation of the G-protein signaling controlled by the RGS domain accelerates GTPase activity of the alpha subunit by hydrolysis of GTP to GDP, which results in the reassociation of the alpha-subunit with the beta-gamma-dimer and thereby inhibition of downstream activity. As a major G-protein regulator, RGS domain containing proteins are involved in many crucial cellular processes such as regulation of intracellular trafficking, glial differentiation, embryonic axis formation, skeletal and muscle development, and cell migration during early embryogenesis. RGS proteins are also involved in apoptosis and cell proliferation, as well as modulation of cardiac development. Several RGS proteins can fine-tune immune responses, while others play important roles in neuronal signals modulation. Some RGS proteins are principal elements needed for proper vision.

Regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) domain found in the RGS9 protein; The RGS (Regulator of G-protein Signaling) domain is an essential part of the RGS9 protein, a member of R7 subfamily of the RGS protein family. RGS is a diverse group of multifunctional proteins that regulate cellular signaling events downstream of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). As a major G-protein regulator, RGS domain containing proteins are involved in many crucial cellular processes such as regulation of intracellular trafficking, glial differentiation, embryonic axis formation, skeletal and muscle development, and cell migration during early embryogenesis. Other members of the R7 subfamily (Neuronal RGS) include: RGS6, RGS7, and RGS11, all of which are expressed predominantly in the nervous system, form an obligatory complex with G-beta-5, and play important roles in the regulation of crucial neuronal processes such as vision and motor control. Additionally they have been implicated in many neurological conditions such as anxiety, schizophrenia, and drug dependence. RGS9 forms constitutive complexes with G-beta-5 subunit and controls such fundamental functions as vision and behavior. RGS9 exists in two splice isoforms: RGS9-1 which regulates phototransduction in rods and cones and RGS9-2 which regulates dopamine and opioid signaling in the basal ganglia. In addition, RGS9 was found to bind many other proteins outside of G protein signaling pathways including: mu-opioid receptor, beta-arrestin, alpha-actinin-2, NMDAR, polycystin, spinophilin, and guanylyl cyclase, among others.

Regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) domain found in the RGS13 protein; The RGS (Regulator of G-protein Signaling) domain is an essential part of the RGS13 protein. RGS13 is member of the R4/RGS subfamily of the RGS family, a diverse group of multifunctional proteins that regulate cellular signaling events downstream of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). RGS proteins play critical regulatory roles as GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) of the heterotrimeric G-protein G-alpha subunits. The RGS domain controls G-protein signaling by accelerating the GTPase activity of the G-alpha subunit which leads to G protein deactivation and promotes desensitization. As a major G-protein regulator, RGS domain containing proteins are involved in many crucial cellular processes such as regulation of intracellular trafficking, glial differentiation, embryonic axis formation, skeletal and muscle development, and cell migration during early embryogenesis. RGS13 is predominantly expressed in T and B lymphocytes and in mast cells, and plays a role in adaptive immune responses. RGS13 also found in Rgs13, which is also expressed in dendritic cells and in neuroendocrine cells of the thymus, gastrointestinal, and respiratory tracts. Outside of the GPCR pathway, RGS5 interacts with the PIP3 protein.
