General annotation (Comments)
| Function | GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain, mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the GABA/benzodiazepine receptor and opening an integral chloride channel. |
| Subunit structure | Generally pentameric. There are five types of GABA(A) receptor chains: alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and rho. |
| Subcellular location | Cell junction › synapse › postsynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family. Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor (TC 1.A.9.5) subfamily. GABRA4 sub-subfamily. [View classification] |
