Regulator of G protein signaling 4 also known as RGP4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RGS4 gene. RGP4 regulates G protein signaling. ^[5]

Function

Regulator of G protein signalling (RGS) family members are regulatory molecules that act as GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) for G alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins. ^[6] RGS proteins are able to deactivate G protein subunits of the G_i alpha, G_o alpha and G_q alpha subtypes. They drive G proteins into their inactive GDP-bound forms. Regulator of G protein signaling 4 belongs to this family. All RGS proteins share a conserved 120-amino acid sequence termed the RGS domain which conveys GAP activity. ^[7] Regulator of G protein signaling 4 protein is 37% identical to RGS1 and 97% identical to rat Rgs4. This protein negatively regulates signaling upstream or at the level of the heterotrimeric G protein and is localized in the cytoplasm. ^[5]

Clinical significance

A number of studies associate the RGS4 gene with schizophrenia, ^{[8] [9] [10] [11]} while some fail to detect an association. ^[12]

RGS4 is also of interest as one of the three main RGS proteins (along with RGS9 and RGS17) involved in terminating signalling by the mu opioid receptor, ^[13] and may be important in the development of tolerance to opioid drugs. ^{[14] [15] [16] [17] [18]}

Inhibitors

• cyclic peptides ^[19]
• CCG-4986 ^[20]

Interactions

RGS4 has been shown to interact with:

• COPB2, ^[21]
• ERBB3, ^[22] and
• GNAQ. ^{[23] [24]}
