Disease relevance of RGS14

  • Mild heat stress, but not proteotoxic or transcription-linked stresses, re-localizes the RGS14 from the cytoplasm to promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies [1].
 

High impact information on RGS14

 

Biological context of RGS14

 

Anatomical context of RGS14

  • Although RGS14 is constitutively expressed in lymphoid cells, agents that activate B or T lymphocytes further enhance its levels [3].
  • RGS14 localizes predominantly in the cytosol, but it can be recruited to membranes by expression of G13alphaQ226L [3].
  • Mouse RGS14 encodes a 547-amino-acid protein with an N-terminal RGS domain, which is highly expressed in lymphoid tissues [3].
  • However, preincubation of RGS14 with Galpha(i1)-GDP precludes either from promoting microtubule polymerization, suggesting that a functional GTP/GDP cycle is necessary [8].
  • Finally, we show that RGS14 is a component of mitotic asters formed in vitro from HeLa cell extracts and that depletion of RGS14 from cell extracts blocks aster formation [8].
 

Associations of RGS14 with chemical compounds

  • We found that RGS14 activity towards heterotrimeric G-proteins, as either a GAP or a GDI (guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor), was unaffected by Rap binding [4].
 

Other interactions of RGS14

  • Deletion analysis, as well as in vitro binding experiments, revealed that RGS14 binds Rap proteins through a domain distinct from that carrying the RGS identity, and that this domain shares sequence identity with the Ras/Rap binding domain of B-Raf and Raf-1 kinases [9].
  • Our results demonstrate a highly dynamic expression pattern of RGS12 and RGS14 proteins in the central nervous system, and support the view that these proteins may participate not only in G-protein receptor signalling pathways but also in other cellular activities [10].
  • When reconstituted with M2 muscarinic receptors (M2) plus either Gi or Go, RGS4 (which has no RBD/GL domain) and full-length RGS14 each markedly stimulates the steady-state GTPase activities of both G proteins, whereas R14-RBD/GL has little or no effect [11].
