Summary
Contributes to GABA-gated chloride ion channel activity. Acts upstream of or within protein heterotrimerization. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of GABA-A receptor complex and transmembrane transporter complex. Predicted to be active in dendrite membrane and postsynapse. Is expressed in brain; brainstem; and eye. Used to study epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence; alcoholic liver cirrhosis; amphetamine abuse; brain disease (multiple); and heroin dependence. Orthologous to human GABRG2 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit gamma2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
