AT4G27630 | GPCR-type G protein 2 (GTG2); CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: GPCR 89-related (InterPro:IPR015672), Protein of unknown function DUF3735 (InterPro:IPR022535); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: GPCR-type G protein 1 (TAIR:AT1G64990.2). GPCR-type G protein 2 Encodes a GPCR-type G protein receptor with nine predicted transmembrane domains. The protein binds abscisic acid (ABA) and is predicted to function as an ABA receptor. It has GTP-binding and GTPase activity and binds to ABA more effectively in the presence of GDP. GTG2 binds to GPA1, the alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein. GPA1 (in its GTP-bound state) affects the GTP binding and GTPase activity of GTG2 and may act to down-regulate GTG2 binding to ABA. GTG2 is widely expressed throughout the plant and appears to be involved in the regulation of several ABA-dependent responses including seed germination, plant development, and promotion of stomatal closure. GTG2 transcript levels do not appear to change in response to ABA or abiotic stresses. | 4 | - | View |
