About GLRA2

Summary

Predicted to enable glycine-gated chloride ion channel activity and transmitter-gated ion channel activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to contribute to extracellularly glycine-gated Chloride Channel activity and glycine binding activity. Involved in spinal cord development and synapse assembly. Predicted to be located in cell projection and postsynaptic membrane. Predicted to be part of Chloride Channel complex. Predicted to be active in glycinergic synapse and neuron projection. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Orthologous to human GLRA2 (glycine receptor alpha 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
