Function

Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems (PubMed:12515866, PubMed:15240885, PubMed:15525651, PubMed:16705036, PubMed:16787920, PubMed:17565996, PubMed:22609986, PubMed:23762476, PubMed:27084452). Activates effector molecule RhoA by binding and activating RhoGEFs (ARHGEF12/LARG) (PubMed:12515866, PubMed:15240885, PubMed:16202387). GNA12-dependent Rho signaling subsequently regulates transcription factor AP-1 (activating protein-1) (By similarity). GNA12-dependent Rho signaling also regulates protein phosphatese 2A activation causing dephosphorylation of its target proteins (PubMed:15525651, PubMed:17565996). Promotes tumor cell invasion and metastasis by activating RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway and up-regulating pro-inflammatory cytokine production (PubMed:16705036, PubMed:16787920, PubMed:23762476, PubMed:27084452). Inhibits CDH1-mediated cell adhesion in process independent from Rho activation (PubMed:11976333, PubMed:16787920). Together with NAPA promotes CDH5 localization to plasma membrane (PubMed:15980433). May play a role in the control of cell migration through the TOR signaling cascade (PubMed:22609986).

Activity summary

GNA12 also known as Gα12 is a member of the G protein family. This protein roughly weighs 44 kDa. It is part of the larger family of heterotrimeric G proteins which consist of alpha beta and gamma subunits. GNA12 is present in various tissues throughout the body including the heart lungs and thymus. GNA12 plays a mechanical role by acting as a molecular switch inside cells transmitting signals from activated receptors to target molecules which changes their activity.

Biological function summary

GNA12 regulates cell signaling processes involving growth differentiation and movement. It operates within the G12/G13 class of G protein signaling pathways and sometimes it works forming a complex with other proteins. It has been implicated in cellular interactions with the cytoskeleton and affects the organization of actin filaments. These actions influence the control of cell shape and motility suggesting a role in cellular migration and adhesion phenomena.

Pathways

GNA12 participates in the Rho family of GTPases signaling pathway and the MAPK/ERK pathway both important for cellular response and adaptation. Within these pathways GNA12 activates the Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factors which then influences Rho-dependent processes. It also interacts with other proteins such as GNA13 and RHOA linking it to signal transduction mechanisms that modulate various cellular outcomes including growth and differentiation.

Associated diseases and disorders

GNA12 links to cancer and pulmonary hypertension. Its role in cancer relates to its influence on cell migration and invasion which are processes involved in cancer metastasis. Studies have shown that changes in GNA12's function can contribute to oncogenic transformation. In pulmonary hypertension altered GNA12 signaling may disrupt normal vascular smooth muscle function contributing to disease progression. The protein connects with RhoA and MAPK/ERK pathway components in these contexts indicating its involvement in the pathology of these disorders.
