Background

Function
Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor alpha 5 component of neuronal acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) that function as pentameric, ligand-gated cation channels with high calcium permeability among other activities. nAChRs are excitatory neurotrasnmitter receptors formed by a collection of nAChR subunits known to mediate synaptic transmission in the nervous system and the neuromuscular junction. Each nAchR subunit confers differential attributes to channel properties, including activation, deactivation and desensitization kinetics, pH sensitivity, cation permeability, and binding to allosteric modulators. Has an accessory rather than functional role and is only able to form functional nAChRs when co-assembled with another beta subunit. Participates in pentameric assemblies along with CHRNA3, CHRNA4, CHRNB2 and CHRNB4. Increases receptor sensitivity to acetylcholine and nicotine when associated with CHRNA4 and CHRNB2. Plays a role in nicotine addiction[1][2].

Subunit
Neuronal AChR that forms heteropentamers composed of two different type of subunits: alpha and non-alpha (beta). CHRNA5/alpha-5 subunit is only able to form functional nAChRs when co-assembled with another alpha subunit, can be combined to CHRNA4/alpha-4 or CHRNA3/alpha-3 and CHRNB4/beta-4 or CHRNB2/beta-2 to give rise to functional receptors (PubMed:20881005, PubMed:8663494). Interacts with LYPD6 (PubMed:27344019)
