Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP04306
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Glycine receptor subunit alpha-4
Description Not Available
Synonyms Not Available
Gene Name GLRA4
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)
