Abstract:
Heterotrimeric G proteins integrate signals between receptors and effector proteins. We have cloned the human beta 5 subunit from a human brain cDNA library. The clone has a 1059 bp open reading frame and is highly homologous to the murine clone. In contrast to the brain specific mouse beta 5, northern analysis showed it to be expressed in multiple tissues.
