The subunit encoded by this gene is expressed in several non-neuronal tissues including the uterus and ovaries. This subunit can assemble with known GABA A receptor subunits, and the presence of this subunit alters the sensitivity of recombinant receptors to modulatory agents such as pregnanolone. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]. * **UniProt Summary**: GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain, mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the GABA/benzodiazepine receptor and opening an integral chloride channel. In the uterus, the function of the receptor appears to be related to tissue contractility. The binding of this pI subunit with other GABA(A) receptor subunits alters the sensitivity of recombinant receptors to modulatory agents such as pregnanolone. |Neur chan memb| |Neur chan LBD| |GABA-A receptor complex| |GABA-A receptor activity| |extracellular ligand-gated ion channel activity| |chloride channel complex| |chloride channel activity| |chloride transmembrane transport| |chloride transport| |inorganic anion transmembrane transport| |inorganic anion transport| |postsynaptic membrane| |synapse| |anion transmembrane transport| |neuron projection| |chemical synaptic transmission| |anterograde trans-synaptic signaling| |regulation of membrane potential| |trans-synaptic signaling| |synaptic signaling| |cell junction| |anion transport| |inorganic ion transmembrane transport| |ion transmembrane transport| |cell-cell signaling| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |nervous system process| |integral component of plasma membrane| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
