General annotation (Comments)

Function

After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.

Subunit structure

Neuronal AChR is composed of two different types of subunits: alpha and beta. Beta-2 subunit can be combined to alpha-2, alpha-3 or alpha-4 to give rise to functional receptors. Interacts with RIC3; which is required for proper folding and assembly. Ref.7

Subcellular location

Cell junctionsynapsepostsynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Involvement in disease

Defects in CHRNB2 are the cause of nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy type 3 (ENFL3) [MIM:605375]. ENFL3 is an autosomal dominant epilepsy characterized by nocturnal seizures with hyperkinetic automatisms and poorly organized stereotyped movements. Ref.8 Ref.9

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ligand-gated ionic channel (TC 1.A.9) family. [View classification]
