Summary: Enables adenylate cyclase inhibitor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of phospholipase activity; regulation of muscle system process; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within brown fat cell differentiation. Located in cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane and cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; heart; and immune system. Orthologous to human RGS2 (regulator of G protein signaling 2).

Overexpression of RGS2 in explicitly serotonergic neurons augments male aggression in control mice and rescues male aggression in Rgs2 (-/-) mice, while anxiety is not affected. Findings specifically identify that RGS2 expression in serotonergic neurons is sufficient to drive male aggression in mice and as a potential therapeutic target for treating aggression.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
