[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/RGS2_HUMAN RGS2_HUMAN] Inhibits signal transduction by increasing the GTPase activity of G protein alpha subunits thereby driving them into their inactive GDP-bound form. May play a role in leukemogenesis. Plays a role in negative feedback control pathway for adenylyl cyclase signaling. Binds EIF2B5 and blocks its activity, thereby inhibiting the translation of mRNA into protein.<ref>PMID:11278586</ref> <ref>PMID:17901199</ref> <ref>PMID:7643615</ref> <ref>PMID:19736320</ref>  
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GNAQ_MOUSE GNAQ_MOUSE] Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems. Regulates B-cell selection and survival and is required to prevent B-cell-dependent autoimmunity. Regulates chemotaxis of BM-derived neutrophils and dendritic cells (in vitro).<ref>PMID:17938235</ref> <ref>PMID:20624888</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The heterotrimeric G protein Galphaq is a key regulator of blood pressure, and excess Galphaq signaling leads to hypertension. A specific inhibitor of Galphaq is the GTPase activating protein (GAP) known as regulator of G protein signaling 2 (RGS2). The molecular basis for how Galphaq/11 subunits serve as substrates for RGS proteins and how RGS2 mandates its selectivity for Galphaq is poorly understood. In crystal structures of the RGS2-Galphaq complex, RGS2 docks to Galphaq in a different orientation from that observed in RGS-Galphai/o complexes. Despite its unique pose, RGS2 maintains canonical interactions with the switch regions of Galphaq in part because its alpha6 helix adopts a distinct conformation. We show that RGS2 forms extensive interactions with the alpha-helical domain of Galphaq that contribute to binding affinity and GAP potency. RGS subfamilies that do not serve as GAPs for Galphaq are unlikely to form analogous stabilizing interactions.
