GLRA3

Gene
GLRA3
Protein
Glycine receptor subunit alpha-3
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
464 amino acids
Function
Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels. Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine (PubMed:9677400, PubMed:26416729). Channel characteristics depend on the subunit composition; heteropentameric channels display faster channel closure (By similarity). Plays an important role in the down-regulation of neuronal excitability (By similarity). Contributes to the generation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents (By similarity). Contributes to increased pain perception in response to increased prostaglandin E2 levels (By similarity). Plays a role in cellular responses to ethanol (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family. Glycine receptor (TC 1.A.9.3) subfamily. GLRA3 sub-subfamily.

Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels. Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine (PubMed:15131310, PubMed:20978350). Channel characteristics depend on the subunit composition; heteropentameric channels display faster channel closure (By similarity). Plays an important role in the down-regulation of neuronal excitability. Contributes to the generation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents (PubMed:15131310). Contributes to increased pain perception in response to increased prostaglandin E2 levels (PubMed:15131310). Plays a role in the regulation of breathing rhythm, especially of the duration of the postinspiratory phase (PubMed:20978350). Plays a role in cellular responses to ethanol (By similarity).
