motifs/domains
  • a RGS domain with three conserved motifs GH1, GH2, GH3
  • two Raf-like Ras-binding domains (RBDs), a tandem (R1, R2) Ras binding domain (RBD), first Ras-binding domain is sufficient to target RGS14 to centrosomes
  • a GPR/GoLoco (GL) domain that forms a stable complex with inactive GNAI11/GNAI3-GDP,(importance of its interactions with GNAI1 in determining RGS14 subcellular localization and linked functions)
  • a C terminal coiled-coil domain

    basic FUNCTION
  • functioning as GTPase-activating protein for G protein alpha i and q subunits
  • inhibiting signal transduction by increasing the GTPase activity of G protein alpha subunits thereby driving them into their inactive GDP-bound form
  • implicated in a diverse set of cellular processes including centrosome and nuclear functions and stress-induced signaling pathways
  • microtubule-associated protein and a component of the mitotic spindle that may regulate microtubule polymerization and spindle organization
  • its activity towards G-protein alpha subunits is independent of its binding to RAP2A
  • facilitates the formation of a selective RAS.GTP-Raf-MEK-ERK multiprotein complex to promote sustained ERK activation and regulate HRAS-dependent neuritogenesis
  • integrator of G protein and MAPKinase signalling pathways
  • newly appreciated integrator of G protein and Ras/Raf signalling pathways
  • scaffolding protein that integrates G protein and HRAS/ERK/MAP kinase signaling pathways
  • key regulator of signaling pathways linking synaptic plasticity in CA2 pyramidal neurons to hippocampal-based learning and memory
  • brain scaffolding protein that integrates G protein and MAP kinase signaling pathways
  • with RIC8A are recruited from the cytosol to the plasma membrane in the presence of coexpressed GNAI1 in cells, suggesting formation of a functional protein complex with GNAI1
