General description

RGS7 (regulator of G-protein signaling 7) is a member of the R7 subfamily of RGS superfamily of regulators, and shares high homology with RGS9-2. It is composed of the catalytic RGS domain, a dishevelled, EGL-10 and pleckstrin (DEP) domain in its N-terminal, along with a G protein γ subunit-like (GGL) domain. It is both a soluble cytosolic protein as well as a membrane protein.

Immunogen Sequence: GI # 11140809, sequence 227-262
Recombinant regulator of G-protein signalling 7

Application

Anti-RGS7 antibody produced in chicken is suitable for western blotting analysis at a dilution of 1:500, for tissue or cell staining at a dilution of 1:200.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Regulator of G-protein signaling 7 belongs to a subfamily of regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins, which modulate G protein signaling by acting as GTPase-activating proteins for G protein α-subunits. RGS7 exists as a dimer with the G protein β(5)-subunit. It plays a major role in the pathogenesis of panic disorder (PD). RGS7 has a potential role in neurons communicating between classical heterotrimeric G protein subunits and/or their effectors at the plasma membrane and the cell nucleus. It helps in regulating signaling by μ-opioid receptor (MOR) and dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) and are implicated in drug addiction, movement disorders and nociception.

Regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins play essential roles in the regulation of signaling via G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). With hundreds of GPCRs and dozens of G proteins, it is important to understand how RGS regulates selective GPCR-G protein

The role that Gbeta(5) regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) complexes play in signal transduction in brain remains unknown. The subcellular localization of Gbeta(5) and RGS7 was examined in rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cells and mouse brain. Both nuclear and cytosolic

Following our recent finding of Rgs2 playing a role in the development of human panic disorder (PD), we examine another positional and functional candidate from the functionally interwoven Rgs (regulator of G-protein signaling) family, Rgs7, in the pathogenesis of PD.
