Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 8001
Gene name Glycine receptor alpha 3
Gene symbol GLRA3
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
-
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4q34.1
Summary This gene encodes a member of the ligand-gated ion channel protein family. The encoded protein is a member of the glycine receptor subfamily. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013]

Protein name Glycine receptor subunit alpha-3
Protein function Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels. Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine (PubMed:26416729, PubMed:9677400). Channel characteristics depend on the subunit composition; heteropentameric channels display faster ch
