UniProt functional annotation for P04899

UniProt code: P04899.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems. The G(i) proteins are involved in hormonal regulation of adenylate cyclase: they inhibit the cyclase in response to beta- adrenergic stimuli. May play a role in cell division. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17635935}.
 
Function: [Isoform sGi2]: Regulates the cell surface density of dopamine receptors DRD2 by sequestrating them as an intracellular pool. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17550964}.
 
Subunit: G proteins are composed of 3 units; alpha, beta and gamma. The alpha chain contains the guanine nucleotide binding site. Interacts with GPSM1 (By similarity). Interacts with RGS12 and RGS14 (By similarity). Interacts with UNC5B (PubMed:12359238). Interacts (inactive GDP-bound form) with NUCB1 (via GBA motif); the interaction leads to activation of GNAI3 (By similarity). Interacts (inactive GDP- bound form) with CCDC88C/DAPLE (via GBA motif) (PubMed:26126266). Interacts (inactive GDP-bound form) with CCDC8A/GIV (via GBA motif) (PubMed:19211784). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P04897, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12359238, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19211784, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26126266}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17635935}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17635935}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17635935}. Membrane {ECO:0000305}; Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000305}. Note=Localizes in the centrosomes of interphase and mitotic cells. Detected at the cleavage furrow and/or the midbody.
Ptm: (Microbial infection) Deamidated at Gln-205 by Photorhabdus asymbiotica toxin PAU_02230, blocking GTP hydrolysis of heterotrimeric GNAQ or GNA11 and G-alphai (GNAI1, GNAI2 or GNAI3) proteins, thereby activating RhoA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24141704}.
Similarity: Belongs to the G-alpha family. G(i/o/t/z) subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
