Function

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the 'regulator of G protein signaling' family. It inhibits signal transduction by increasing the GTPase activity of G protein alpha subunits. It also may play a role in regulating the kinetics of signaling in the phototransduction cascade.[6]

Interactions

RGS16 has been shown to interact with GNAQ[7] and GNAI3.[8][9]
