About GABRG2

Cytogenetic location: 5q34 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:162,067,465-162,155,539 (from NCBI)

This gene has 29 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues, 45 paralogues and is associated with 8 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward brain (RPKM 32.3).

Summary

This gene encodes a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor. GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammlian brain, where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. GABA-A receptors are pentameric, consisting of proteins from several subunit classes: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and rho. Mutations in this gene have been associated with epilepsy and febrile seizures. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene.
