G-protein gamma like domains (GGL) are found in the gamma subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein complex and in regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins [1]. It is also found fused to an inactive Galpha in the Dictyostelium protein gbqA [2]. G-gamma likely shares a common origin with the helical N-terminal unit of G-beta [2]. All organisms that posses a G-beta possess a G-gamma [2].
Certain members of the PI3K family possess Ras-binding domains in their N-termini. These regions show some similarity (although not highly significant similarity) to Ras-binding Pfam:PF00788 domains (unpublished observation).
