Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP03430
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Glycine receptor subunit alpha-1
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. Glycine receptor 48 kDa subunit
  2. Glycine receptor strychnine-binding subunit
Gene Name GLRA1
Protein Type Receptor
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in ion transport
Specific Function The glycine receptor is a neurotransmitter-gated ion channel. Binding of glycine to its receptor increases the chloride conductance and thus produces hyperpolarization (inhibition of neuronal firing)
