About GABRB2

Cytogenetic location: 5q34 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:161,288,436-161,548,404 (from NCBI)

This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 277 orthologues, 45 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 22.7), spleen (RPKM 1.3) and 1 other tissue.

Summary

The gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptor is a multisubunit Chloride Channel that mediates the fastest inhibitory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. This gene encodes GABA A receptor, beta 2 subunit. It is mapped to chromosome 5q34 in a cluster comprised of genes encoding alpha 1 and gamma 2 subunits of the GABA A receptor. Alternative splicing of this gene generates 2 transcript variants, differing by a 114 bp insertion. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
