GLRA1 - glycine receptor alpha 1 Gene
Also Known as STHE; HKPX1
Species: Homo sapiens
About GLRA1
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues, 45 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of a pentameric inhibitory glycine receptor, which mediates postsynaptic inhibition in the central nervous system. Defects in this gene are a cause of startle disease (STHE), also known as hereditary hyperekplexia or congenital stiff-person syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
