{"symbol":"RGS12","synonyms":[],"name":"regulator of G-protein signaling 12","description":"This gene encodes a member of the \u0027regulator of G protein signaling\u0027 (RGS) gene family. The encoded protein may function as a guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)-activating protein as well as a transcriptional repressor. This protein may play a role in tumorigenesis. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. Other alternative splice variants have been described but their biological nature has not been determined.
