Biochem/physiol Actions

Regulator of G-protein signaling 18 is a protein encoded by the RGS18 gene in humans. It is a GTPase-activating protein for the G-α-q and G-α-i subunits of heterotrimeric G-proteins that turns off signaling by G-protein coupled receptors. It is highly expressed in platelets. RGS18 can act on G(q)-mediated signaling pathways. It is expressed most highly in megakaryocytes and can modulate GPCR pathways in both mammalian and yeast cells. RGS18 may have an important role in the regulation of megakaryocyte differentiation and chemotaxis.

A novel regulator of G-protein signaling (RGS) has been isolated from a highly purified population of mouse long-term hematopoietic stem cells, and designated RGS18. It has 234 amino acids consisting of a central RGS box and short divergent NH(2) and

Myelopoiesis and lymphopoiesis are controlled by haematopoietic growth factors, including cytokines, and chemokines that bind to G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Regulators of G-protein signalling (RGSs) are a protein family that can act as GTPase-activating proteins for G(alphai)- and G(alphaq)-class proteins. We
