General description

RGS1 is a member of the regulator of G-protein signalling family and attenuates the signalling activity of G-proteins. RGS1 binds to activated GTP-bound G alpha subunit and acts as a GTPase activating protein (GAP) thereby increasing the rate of conversion of GTP to GDP and terminating the signal. RGS1 is extensively up-regulated in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tissues and melanoma. In melanoma, RGS1 expression is significantly correlated with increased tumor thickness, mitotic rate and presence of vascular involvement. Furthermore, there is significant association between increasing RGS1 expression and reduced relapse-free survival as well as disease-specific survival (DSS) survival.

The regulators of G-protein signaling (RGS) proteins are important regulatory and structural components of G-protein coupled receptor complexes. RGS proteins are GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) of Gi-and Gq-class Galpha proteins, and thereby accelerate signaling kinetics and termination. Here, we mapped

RGS1 (regulator of G protein signaling 1) encodes a member of the regulator of G protein family. Recently, RGS1 was found to be overexpressed in gene expression-profiling studies of melanoma. However, no analyses have been reported of its expression at
