About CHRNA1

Cytogenetic location: 2q31.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:174,747,592-174,764,472 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 259 orthologues, 45 paralogues and is associated with 6 phenotypes. Biased expression in prostate (RPKM 1.5), colon (RPKM 0.5) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

The muscle acetylcholine receptor consiststs of 5 subunits of 4 different types: 2 alpha subunits and 1 each of the beta, gamma, and delta subunits. This gene encodes an alpha subunit that plays a role in acetlycholine binding/channel gating. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
