Description

RGS9BP encodes a protein that binds to and stabilizes the regulator of G protein signaling 9 (RGS9), a key component in the deactivation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling. The protein is essential for normal phototransduction in retinal photoreceptors and modulates signaling in the brain, particularly in the striatum. Mutations in RGS9BP cause bradyopsia, a disorder characterized by delayed light adaptation.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Bradyopsia Loss-of-function mutations in RGS9BP impair RGS9 stability, leading to delayed deactivation of transducin and prolonged photoresponse ClinVar, OMIM

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.556C>T (p.Arg186*) Nonsense Rare Loss of function; associated with bradyopsia
c.493G>A (p.Gly165Arg) Missense Rare Likely loss of function; disrupts RGS9 binding
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and missense mutations that reduce RGS9BP protein stability or disrupt RGS9 binding lead to loss of function, causing bradyopsia.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway • phototransduction
• protein binding • regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway

Protein Summary

RGS9BP is a 25 kDa protein that acts as a chaperone for RGS9, anchoring it to the membrane and protecting it from proteasomal degradation. It is highly expressed in retinal photoreceptors and striatal neurons, where it regulates the duration of G protein signaling. The protein contains a DEP domain that mediates membrane localization and a GGL domain that binds RGS9.
