Protein

Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit alpha-1

Gene

GABRA1

Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Status
Reviewed-Annotation score: -Experimental evidence at protein leveli

Functioni

Component of the heteropentameric receptor for GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain. Functions also as histamine receptor and mediates cellular responses to histamine. Functions as receptor for diazepines and various anesthetics, such as pentobarbital; these are bound at a separate allosteric effector binding site. Functions as ligand-gated chloride channel (By similarity).By similarity

Involvement in diseasei

Epilepsy, childhood absence 4 (ECA4)1 Publication
Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease descriptionA subtype of idiopathic generalized epilepsy characterized by an onset at age 6-7 years, frequent absence seizures (several per day) and bilateral, synchronous, symmetric 3-Hz spike waves on EEG. Tonic-clonic seizures often develop in adolescence. Absence seizures may either remit or persist into adulthood.
See also OMIM:611136
Epilepsy, idiopathic generalized 13 (EIG13)1 Publication
Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease descriptionA disorder characterized by recurring generalized seizures in the absence of detectable brain lesions and/or metabolic abnormalities. Generalized seizures arise diffusely and simultaneously from both hemispheres of the brain. Seizure types include juvenile myoclonic seizures, absence seizures, and generalized tonic-clonic seizures.

Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy 5 (EJM5)1 Publication
Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease descriptionA subtype of idiopathic generalized epilepsy. Patients have afebrile seizures only, with onset in adolescence (rather than in childhood) and myoclonic jerks which usually occur after awakening and are triggered by sleep deprivation and fatigue.

The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease descriptionA severe neurologic disorder characterized by onset of seizures in the first months of life and usually associated with EEG abnormalities. Affected infants have convulsive seizures (hemiclonic or generalized) that are often prolonged and triggered by fever. Other seizure types include focal, myoclonic, absence seizures, and drop attacks. Development is normal in the first year of life with later slowing and intellectual disability.
