General annotation (Comments)

Function

The glycine receptor is a neurotransmitter-gated ion channel. Binding of glycine to its receptor increases the chloride conductance and thus produces hyperpolarization (inhibition of neuronal firing).

Subunit structure

Pentamer composed of alpha and beta subunits. Interacts with GPHN By similarity.

Subcellular location

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

Tissue specificity

High levels of expression in cortex, hippocampus, thalamus and cerebellum.

Involvement in disease

Note=Defects in Glrb cause the spastic condition which is characterized by muscle rigidity, tremors, myoclonic jerks, pronounced startle reaction, abnormal gait and impaired righting ability.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family. Glycine receptor (TC 1.A.9.3) subfamily. GLRB sub-subfamily. [View classification]
