About Glra4

Summary

Enables extracellularly glycine-gated Chloride Channel activity. Involved in chloride transmembrane transport and response to amino acid. Is integral component of postsynaptic specialization membrane. Is active in glycinergic synapse. Is expressed in brain. Orthologous to human GLRA4 (glycine receptor alpha 4 (pseudogene)).
