Chrng - cholinergic receptor, nicotinic, gamma polypeptide Gene

Also Known as Acrg; Achr-3

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 11449

Summary

Enables acetylcholine-gated cation-selective channel activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of membrane potential. Located in postsynaptic membrane. Part of acetylcholine-gated channel complex. Is expressed in several structures, including diaphragm; embryo mesenchyme; limb bud; skeletal musculature; and tongue. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in multiple pterygium syndrome. Orthologous to human CHRNG (cholinergic receptor nicotinic gamma subunit).
