Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 2742
Gene name Glycine receptor alpha 2
Gene symbol GLRA2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GLRMRXSP
Chromosome X
Chromosome location Xp22.2
Summary The glycine receptor consists of two subunits, alpha and beta, and acts as a pentamer. The protein encoded by this gene is an alpha subunit and can bind strychnine. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[pro
