== Function Summary ==
  * **<color #00a2e8>Entrez Summary</color>**:  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.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]. 
  * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**:  Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels. Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine (PubMed:2155780, PubMed:15302677, PubMed:16144831, PubMed:23895467, PubMed:25445488). Channel opening is also triggered by taurine and beta-alanine (PubMed:15302677). Plays a role in the down-regulation of neuronal excitability. Contributes to the generation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents (PubMed:25445488). Plays a role in cellular responses to ethanol (PubMed:23895467). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15302677, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16144831, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2155780, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23895467, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25445488}.
