Entrez gene ID | | 2557 |
Official gene symbol | | GABRA4 |
Full name | | gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor, alpha 4 |
Aliases | | ,-, |
Gene summary | | GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of these channels can be modulated by agents such as benzodiazepines that bind to the GABA-A receptor. At least 16 distinct subunits of GABA-A receptors have been identified.
