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

Binds UBQLN1 By similarity. Generally pentameric. There are five types of GABA(A) receptor chains: alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and rho.

Subcellular location

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

Sequence similarities

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