High impact information on Rgs7

  • Here, we identify R7BP, a novel neuronally expressed protein that binds R7-Gbeta5 complexes and shuttles them between the plasma membrane and nucleus [1].
  • Palmitoylation regulates plasma membrane-nuclear shuttling of R7BP, a novel membrane anchor for the RGS7 family [1].
  • It is hypothesized that the gene encoding the polycystin-binding partner RGS7 is a candidate for the Chr 1 genetic modifier [2].
  • Interestingly, the gene encoding RGS7, a regulator of G protein signaling that binds to polycystin-1, was mapped to the same Chr 1 interval [2].
  • At 2 h after administering the acute opioid, RGS7 mRNA levels in the striatum plus those of RGS9-2 in the striatum and thalamus were increased, whereas RGS9-2 and RGS11 mRNA were reduced in the cortex [3].
