Guanine nucleotide binding protein, alpha 11

The GNA11 gene encodes a component of G-protein coupled receptors which is involved in signal transduction from calcium sensing receptors. Inactivating mutations are responsible for autosomal dominant hypocalciuric hypercalcemia type 2 while activating mutation cause autosomal dominant hypocalcemia 2.
