IV. Literature review

[source]
Gene nameGLRA1
Protein nameGlycine receptor alpha 1
GLRA1 protein
Glycine receptor subunit alpha-1 (Glycine receptor 48 kDa subunit) (Glycine receptor strychnine-binding subunit)
Synonyms
DescriptionFUNCTION: Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels . Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine . Channel opening is also triggered by taurine and beta-alanine . Channel characteristics depend on the subunit composition; heteropentameric channels are activated by lower glycine levels and display faster desensitization . Plays an important role in the down-regulation of neuronal excitability . Contributes to the generation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents . Channel activity is potentiated by ethanol . Potentiation of channel activity by intoxicating levels of ethanol contribute to the sedative effects of ethanol (By similarity). .
