UniProt functional annotation for P49796

UniProt code: P49796.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Down-regulates signaling from heterotrimeric G-proteins by increasing the GTPase activity of the alpha subunits, thereby driving them into their inactive GDP-bound form. Down-regulates G-protein- mediated release of inositol phosphates and activation of MAP kinases. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10749886, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11294858, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8602223, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9858594}.
 
Subunit: Binds EFNB1 and EFNB2 (By similarity). Binds the GNB1-GNG2 heterodimer. {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9858594}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10749886}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9858594}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9858594}. Note=Long isoforms are cytoplasmic and associated with the plasma membrane (PubMed:9858594). Short isoforms are nuclear (PubMed:10749886).
Ptm: Phosphorylated by cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase. {ECO:0000250}.
Ptm: ISGylated. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16884686}.
Miscellaneous: [Isoform 2]: Nuclear. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10749886}.
